If you have watched the documentary about Pam on Netflix, there really isn't much need to read this book; there really isn't anything additional except for Pam's philosophical ideas. If you haven't seen the doc, and you're curious about who Pamela really is, this is worth reading.

pickGaslighting. This book is exactly was gaslighting looks like!!!! I loved Rachel and Tully. My heart broke for Heather and Pam. A dysfunctional family with loads of drama and a touch of dark mystery. I devoured this book and can‘t wait for my next SH novel! Book #64 in 2022
1. Yes!! I have my own classic book challenge this year (one a month from my Modern Library collection). Tagged is this month's read.
2. I'll answer with a very old classic. I've had Seamus Heaney's trans. of Beowulf forever, & I've still not read it. Did read Sioned Davies trans. of The Mabinogion last year. Loved it. But poor Beowulf keeps getting buried on my TBR.
Thanks @TiminCalifornia for tagging me.

pickBook #64: 🎧 Aubiobook. Aside from the really long essay on Scrabble (lol), I found this an interesting, educational and mostly entertaining audiobook. It kept me company on a few long car rides and long days at the office. My favorite essay was on the Hunger Games.
