Angela is starting The Deep Sky
Woo-eee, these ladies are catty! Whose idea was it to send the Real Housewives of Earth up into space? Plus, everyone is pregnant at the same time? This all-girls high school is full of not-great hormones and ready to mean-girl you with a rude word for zero reason in a hot second. Yikes.

Angela
Angela is 38% done with Thomas Cromwell: A Revolutionary Life
This is So. Boring. I’m getting bogged down in Cromwell’s monastic reforms and the random assortment of plenaries he utilizes to effect them. It’s well-written but definitely more of a non-popular semi-academic biography.

I am 100% absorbed into Thomas Cromwell’s imagined life. I wake up having dreamt of it.

Oh my god, this is brilliant, hilarious poetry. I pray it keeps going this good. I’ve giggled and laughed out loud so much. And wondered. Why was this not on ONE end-of-year 2022 wrap-up list!?

Going to give this one another chance. This is the THIRD time I’ve checked it out. It always keeps coming to mind, mostly because it’s set in a kind of mystical urban Los Angeles maze.

This book is both engagingly well-written and infuriatingly stupid.

Angela
Angela is 30% done with Life and Fate
This 7% took me two lifetimes to complete and took me from a cattle car filled with dirty children destined for death to a prison camp suicide followed by a theological dialogue on the revolution, followed by a visit to a tank embedded on the frontlines of Stalingrad and boy are my arms tired
