Impeccable pacing

I can't tell if this book is boring or if I just don't have the brain power to appreciate it at the moment

"most people don't do what we tell them to, they do what we let them get away with."

This is SO whimsical. Probably the only book I've read that actually feels like studio ghibli. The plot is going by really quickly and yet I'm not super invested in it? But the vibes are there for sure.

*if you like this you might also like Spinning Silver*

I really wanted something that would be totally engrossing, that wouldn't take a lot of effort to get through, and I didn't think this would deliver so well. The perspectives change so quickly and so seamlessly that the story flies by. I have a suspicion though this will be one to check the warnings for.

I forgot how wonderful Fredrik Backman's writing is

Rereading AGAIN. I keep wondering if it is as great as I remember and as it turns out it is. The PERFECT mix of juicy and wholesome and sweet.

"You are the most exasperating creature I've ever met."
"No one has ever known what to do with me."
"That I believe."

😂 I feel seen

This book is actually for anyone who doesn't like conflict - it's shockingly applicable to everyday life

I am ENAMORED I did not expect every interaction between Matthew and Diana to be so engrossing

Katherine Center has officially become a favorite author

Not my favorite KC book so far but I'm still liking it a lot. Wish my audiobook checkout didn't expire so I could finish it in one go

So bored I'm DNFing

Slowly making my way through this

I am still waiting to be even a little bit surprised by a plot twist in this series 😫

More people need to read this oh my gosh
