Impersonation | 
so-soThis book hit on a lot of current political issues, but didn‘t do so with much finesse. The book is mainly an account of the struggles of a single mother. There is the ghostwriter component to the plot, but it seemed secondary to the single parent story. 3⭐️ #hoopla
@Lauren.Archer I got the book yesterday.😊📚. Thank you for sharing. I had applied for an ARC of this but didn‘t get it. I‘m looking forward to reading it. 💕

pickI received this ARC from the publisher. An intriguing concept: the main character is a ghostwriter, and the story is set against the backdrop of the 2016 election (🤮), and #MeToo movement.
I saw the direction the story was going in a mile away, and the character Lana was frankly, infuriating. The characters could have had more depth, so a potentially powerful story became a light read that may be forgettable in a few months.
3.5 ⭐️⭐️⭐️
Happy Friday!! I am so glad it‘s Friday.
Made it through the 1st week of remote learning & working in the same room, only 17 more weeks to go. 😬 Celebrating with🍷 and reading!
It was an eventful week: major oil spill near our new home 😳, current home appraised, down a car all week b/c someone backed into our parked car, and I interviewed for a FT nonprofit program management position and made it to the second step in the process!
so-soInteresting premise. A ghostwriter writes a memoir for a politician to make her more warm and fuzzy to the public and ends up with a book that is more fiction than memoir. The last third of the book was less convincing and more contrived than the rest. #ARC #LibraryThing #EarlyReviewer
2020 has become the year of screwing up reading commitments. 😔 I received the Impersonations arc months ago, and totally dropped the ball on reading it in time for the blog tour. Just started it last night, and really enjoying it so far!
I also owe a big apology to all of the #summerfun participants, along with @StayCurious . This summer certainly did not turn out the way I expected back when I came up with the idea back in May! 😣⬇️⬇️
pickThis was a surprising read, and I really liked what the author did with this story.

pickThis novel is about a ghostwriter who gets hired to write a book for a promising feminist activist. As a writer, I felt like Pitlor perfectly captured the desperate search for ideas when writing and how downright tempting distractions can be. It's not heavy on plot but still a fun read. ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ #arc

👏🏼🙌🏼👊🏼❤️📚🤓
An arc of this book just arrived in the mail. Got a free copy through LibraryThing Early Reviewers program. I need to up my reading game this month to get through a bunch of backlist arcs.
Got the ARC I won from LibraryThing. Wondering if I should pause my reading of Jane Eyre so I can get this one read and reviewed sooner rather than later.... It is going to take me a long time to read Jane Eyre.
