4⭐️ Really liked this book; it was really well paced, had very interesting characters that were compelling in their own way. Had a bit of an issue with the last two chapters in that I felt that they were both a little too long. #2025 #fiction #bookerprize #feminism #bipoc #intersectionality #literaryfiction

3⭐️ I really tried to understand what this book was about and while it was an interesting read, I really didn‘t understand it. I am really interested to hear what others in this #Canadianlit #bookclub I am a part of will think of the book. #2025 #fiction #sciencefiction #speculative #historicalfiction #fiction #canadian #mexico

4⭐️ Really enjoyed this book and I am kinda glad I read it after all the hype had died down to read it. Looking forward to the next book in the series. #2025 #fiction #historicalfiction #literary #friendship #comingofage

ChaoticMissAdventures Yes! So much hype. I read it a few years ago and gave it a so-so but I wonder if I would like it better now 4d

4.5⭐️ I really liked the book and it really lived up to the hype. I thought it might be a bit too schmaltzy, but I really liked how the characters were drawn and felt like the story ended well. #2025 #fiction #contemporary #wedding #literaryfiction

ChaoticMissAdventures I thought it was fun and super unexpected! That first scene of her in the dress in the lobby has really stuck with me. 4d

4⭐️ I really liked this book, but I would have liked more explanations about how to challenge some of the more negative emotions. #2025 #nonfiction #psychology #mentalhealth
