pickBefore embarking on #AuldLangSpine2025 with my new reading partner @JoeMo , I decided to read one last book off the list from my #AuldLangSpine2024 partner @MallenNC . 🙂 I enjoyed it ! As much as I can now enjoy books about global pandemics caused by viruses that originated in China, that is. 😖 I even wanted it to continue. I don‘t know what that says about me. 😳

MallenNC This one was so interesting to me! Glad you liked it. 3w
Amiable @MallenNC I know it came out in 2018, but I'm not sure I would have liked it as much before 2020. Having lived through a pandemic really added a whole different layer to the reading experience! It was simultaneously satirical and horrifying. 3w
MallenNC @Amiable I agree! The parts about her keeping on working as the pandemic got worse and worse really resonated after experiencing that in real life. I read this because it was featured on The Stacks podcast, if you want to hear discussion about it. 3w

Amiable @MallenNC Ooh yes! I love podcasts for my commute. Thanks! 3w
sarahbarnes I felt the same way when I read this one, also after the pandemic. I liked it a lot. 3w
DogMomIrene Just read the description and this sounds so good. Not sure if I‘ll read it soon or hold onto it… because, ya know, the next pandemic 🤷🏻♀️ Will need dark humor. 2w
Amiable @DogMomIrene It's a quick read, too. In case you want to read it now and then again during the next pandemic. 😬 2w
DogMomIrene @Amiable Good to know!😂😬 2w
