A lot of reviews are very meh about this one, but I liked it.
Orthodontist said I have to have a root canal. I deserve this indie bookstore haul.
pickFantastic! I loved the MC Doris's voice as much as that of any character I've encountered in a long time. And Bahni Turpin's narration was of course perfect. The interweaving of historical events and figures, in all their complexity, was done really well, I think. And the matter-of-factness around abortion was (way more) refreshing (than it should feel in 2025).
pickThis book was an easy read! From the moment I started, I was hoooked. I really didn‘t see most of it coming! 🤯 I‘m excited to read more of the Will Trent series and see what case he solves next!
pickI loved this one so much! Set in Georgia in the 1960‘s, Doris is a very religious teen who needs to have an abortion and turns to her favorite teacher for help. The duo embark on a weekend trip to Atlanta for the procedure, which gets delayed. While waiting, Doris meets a cast of characters who completely change her worldview and broaden her life choices.
Definitely a favorite read this year!
