I’m about 25% of the way through and I dislike the main character pretty intensely. I also think their marriage seems pretty rocky so rooting for them to get this house doesn’t feel right. Maybe it gets better? I mean the book and the characters and the relationship? The writing feels very juvenile. I don’t consider myself a book snob but this book just seems so….basic?

getting books from the library does this too. and you pay for the library whether you want to or not because of taxes, you know.


NP. Why would this get under your skin? You're actually discouraging someone who wants to from buying a book at Barnes & Noble?
I remember when the Borders in Bethesda closed 😭. That's not good either, libraries or no. Not the author, btw.


NP but saying “support everyone, you know” is a pretty smug thing to say.
