Studies have shown that the anti-overdose drug naloxone reverses the feel-good chemistry of a long run

The human body is beautiful and bizarre

Ew. Yuck. No thank you. If it were not for the fact that I am reading this for book club I would have DNF'd almost immediately. I am finishing it only because I have Strong Feelings that I want to discuss with other people at said book club. Do not recommend.

We have reached the point where this book is being referenced in multiple other books i am reading and I don't get any of the references so I'm begrudgingly picking this up. I'm sorry but I am a huge grump and I hated throne of glass but I am doing my best to keep an open mind

Oh no.... I already love this but the audiobook narrator is doing a weird voice and the ebook has a 26 week wait 💀

This book is already making me so sad for something that is apparently a romance

The Journal Of John Woolman

Ben
Ben is on page 56 of The Journal Of John Woolman
This is written like "Wow, look at how pious and amazing John Woolman was!", but mostly what I'm getting is that he was so obsessed with moral scrupulosity that he essentially kept abandoning his family for months at a time and forced them to live very uncomfortably...

Sometimes you can tell a book is really good, but you just can't get hooked. I think I started this one over a year ago....

I know there's a lot of repetition due to the fact that this is a transcribed oral tradition, but it makes reading it very, very slow.

Who is this for??? If it's middle grade, there's a lot of gore. If it's YA, the themes are so heavy handed. Either way it reads like bad fanfic

🙄 I'm convinced this book was written to exclusively to demonstrate why you should "show, not tell". Every other chapter is a secondary character spouting exposition like an NPC in an open world game
