I'm loathe to truly critique any book because #1 I'm not a trained critic & #2 I couldn't write 3 sentences that would interest anybody. With that caveat, read this book after seeing review somewhere that is was a good local (for me, Wash DC) novel. I don't know...no suspense, no plot turns, 1 semi-interesting character, ending completely open & not in a good way (like Sopranos).
pickA behind the scenes look at politics and the way it can be manipulated. It's also story of Dre, an ambitious Black lawyer who is sent to a small Southern town to get a ballot passed as a form of punishment for getting caught playing dirty. I enjoyed this book, but I'll admit, it also depressed me.
pickThis was a fascinating behind-the-scenes look at dark money politics in the US, curtesy of Citizens United. The narrator is sent to a small town in South Carolina where a mining company wants to influence local politics to gain access to mining on public lands. The author highlights a lot of what‘s wrong in current US politics without being obvious or preachy. I found this a really engaging story. 4⭐️ #hoopla

pickFinished this up last night! I enjoyed it. I wasn‘t sure a political book would be up my alley, especially right now, but it was entertaining and I enjoyed the MC‘s journey. Some people will hate the ending, and some may not dig the story at all, but it kept me interested. #ARC #stayhome24in48 #24in48 @24in48
1. Yes, plenty. Working from home this week and next week but sadly will be unemployed after that. Greatly worried about being able to find my next job, but I have some savings, a safety net and plenty of books.
2. No. I bought a month supply for the cat last week and have plenty of necessary supplies without having more than my fair share. Please everyone, do not hoard.
