pickThis fast paced novel had many flawed but interesting characters. There was sex, adultery, theft, murder and multiple twists and turns. There were a couple of sweet nieces, con men, a sexy socialite and a law professor. Most of the action takes place in Chicago with a bit of traveling. Simon and Vicky seem like a normal married couple in a stale relationship. Be prepared to ask yourself again and again if you know what is happening. 4.25/5
pickThis audiobook was so much fun! It…was…all…over…the…place!! The twists and turns were epic and it was really fun trying to guess where it was going and what each perspective was actually trying to tell you (I‘m pretty good at guessing and I couldn‘t keep up 🤣). Fast paced, exciting, and definitely entertaining. A 5🌟 thriller for sure!
Does anyone else remember this traumatizing book cover? John Midas (get it!?) gets his wish when everything he touches turns into chocolate.

pick4 ⭐This book is adorable and would be great fun as a read aloud. An apple is about to fall from a tree and each animal takes a moment to think that is going to be mine. The way the author rhymes the story when she needs to and uses sound words like plop, fizz, etc. in other parts of the story makes this such a fun read. It a great ending. Also have to give it up to Eric Rothman, who did all the fantastic illustrations.
panUgh! I have complicated thoughts upon finishing this. There are many things which I despised, chief among them the brutal antisemitism which poisoned so much of the reading experience. Also, for me, the story boils down to a sociological character study on the negative effects of money, the extremes to which greed can push people. The writing captures the tone and feeling of inevitable destruction excellently. That element kept me reading. Yet…⬇️
