[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Just read Maggie or A Man and a Woman Walk Into A Bar by Katie Yee; also finished SomenKind of Paradise by Janelle Brown. Both were 3 stars (out of 5) for me. I found Yee’s main character annoying and a wet blanket; Brown’s book was just very… okay. Starting either So Far Gone by Jess Walter or The Correspondent… hopefully either will be better![/quote]

So Far Gone is SO good! One of my recent favortites. I was slow to read the Correspondent -- mostly because it was so hyped up--but I ended up really liking it.

Just finished [b]Emma Straub's American Fantasy[/b]. It's about an recently (and unhappily) divorced women you goes on a theme cruise in place of her sister who broke her leg just before the departing. The cruise is dedicated to fans of a boy band (all of the members are now middle aged). The sister doesn't really like the band, but goes anyway. It's very funny and engaging. She is one of favorite authors so I may be biased but I think this book is a delight. FINALLY--I went on a spree of reading all of Cynthia D'Prix Sweeney's books. All good.[/quote]

I recently read my first book by her, This Time Tomorrow, and was so impressed. The lightest "heavy" book (or perhaps vice versa) I've encountered. Will have to look up American Fantasy next.[/quote]
