I started listening to Gabrielle Union's memoir. I tried reading it a while ago, but it was a DNF. Hoping hearing her read it will make it better.
Also just got notice that my hold for The Guncle is up. I've heard good things about it!

I finally read Life After Life and the ending was so flat. I want those hours of my life back.

I finished We Were Never Here and it was wild. I thought it had some very interesting things to say and it would make a good book club choice. But the ending was weird and I canβt decide if I love it or hate it. It reminded me a bit of The Push (not in topic at all, just in the ending) but whereas I thought that ending was perfect, this one pissed me off!
Iβm going to read In My Dreams I Hold a Knife next.

Oh, and I hit my goodreads challenge! Iβve read 90 books this year (plus 4 rereads Iβm not counting). I already moved the number from 50 to 90, so Iβll probably just leave it there and make it a little higher next year.

Iβm currently reading The Song of Achilles. Itβs okay, but something about the writing style makes me feel very distant from the characters.
