I think I've FINALLY pulled out of my reading slump. Yay! Hopefully I'll have larger numbers in August/September.
*Did not like it at all
**It was just okay
***Liked it
****Really really liked it
*****Absolutely loved it
***This is the Story of a Happy Marriage (A. Patchett, Non-Fiction)
Almost a 4-star….this was more of a collection of non-fiction essays that were published by Ann Patchett over the years. She is an amazing writer and I learned a lot about her. Like how she used to work at Gourmet and 17 Magazine. She has no kids by choice (and is fairly vocal about it), she passed all of the mental/physical exams to be a cop. She has an obsession with her dogs. Lots of gems. But a few slow spots…I prefer her fiction books.
***P.S. I Still Love You (J. Han, Fiction)
Book 2 of a 3 book series. Lots of cheese, but lots of sweetness too.
***I Was Told It Would Get Easier (A. Waxman, Fiction)
Mother/daughter college tour trip. There was a lot of back and forth which I didn’t mind, but it seemed that nothing really happened until the last few pages. So I found myself skimming a lot.
****Pandemic (Y. Ventresca, Fiction)
This YA book was written in 2014, but honestly it could have been written about Covid. Even the flu in this book was almost identical to Covid. Lots of heavy themes though going on and the ending was a bit rushed, but I flew through it.
****Always and Forever (Fiction, J. Han)
The last of the Lara Jean trilogy. Overall a very cute series.
Total Books Read: 5 (4 Fiction, 1 Non-Fiction, 0 DNF)
