Earth | John Boyne

Been a while since I‘ve relaxed with a book at soccer practice. It‘s warm but pretty nice out! 📖⚽️

Confidence | Rafael Frumkin

The US might be a giant dumpster fire at the moment, but at work, things are actually going quite well. I feel like a lot of effort I've put in has been recognized and rewarded. So there's that, at least! #awinisawin

The Bones Beneath My Skin | Tj Klune

so-so

***** Meh, I wasn‘t thrilled in this one, It was readable, had some exciting moments once it got there, but overall I found it lackluster at best.

Earth | John Boyne

I know Boyne is well liked, but apparently he‘s as bad as JKR and I thought people might want to know.

Prairiegirl_reading This is so disappointing. 😞 1d

TheBookHippie I knew this. Also he‘s hugely antisemitic… covered in writing so you feel bad for the non Jewish person in his writing… hugely problematic. It is disappointing as I loved some of his books… there have been articles before about him. Not this huge however. 😵‍💫 1d

lil1inblue Ugh. Gross. The statement from Polari gave me so much ick. 1d

TrishB I‘ve been following this on Twitter….its been known for a while, sadly. 1d

BarbaraBB Wow this is new to me. 1d

Hooked_on_books @TheBookHippie @TrishB My guess is this story hasn‘t been as big as JKR because he lacks her level of fame. But it makes me glad I‘ve never read any of his books. I for sure won‘t now. 1d

TheBookHippie @Hooked_on_books I loved The Hearts invisible Furies by him … then I read quotes from him on how there were good Nazis 😵‍💫😵‍💫😵‍💫😵‍💫. 1d

marleed Oh dang. I‘ve loved his books but have now dropped him from my auto read authors. 1d

AmyG NOOOOOOOO. Goddammit. @TheBookHippie WTF? (edited) 1d

lil1inblue @TheBookHippie What the what now? 😵 1d

TheBookHippie @AmyG yup even got into a war of words with THE Auschwitz Memorial and others …. @lil1inblue (edited) 1d

Deblovestoread So incredibly disappointing! I don‘t know why I expect better from authors but I do. (edited) 1d

Hooked_on_books @TheBookHippie Sure, all those good Nazis! What were the rest of us thinking? 😵‍💫 1d

peaKnit @AmyG I think you were reading my mind with your comment. WTF indeed! 💩 1d

CarolynM Seems a bizarre decision by Polari. I didn‘t know Boyne was problematic but I didn‘t much like the only one of his books I‘ve read so I wasn‘t planning on reading any more anyway. 1d

Amiable DAMN. I love(d) Boyne‘s books. I‘d heard none of this. It feels like a kick in the stomach. 1d

GingerAntics @TheBookHippie sounds like an author to avoid. 1d

AmyG @Amiable Same. 😢 1d

janeycanuck I heard rumblings about this a few years after The Heart‘s Invisible Furies came out but nothing definitive. How disappointing that he‘s still on this train. 15h

The Seven Husbands of Evelyn Hugo: A Novel | Taylor Jenkins Reid

pick

6-8 Aug 25 (audiobook)
As a young woman, Evelyn Hugo was determined to achieve fortune and fame as a Hollywood actress at almost any cost but now reflects upon the relationships she entered and destroyed along the way including her many, many marriages.
Entertaining enough but I don‘t think I am as much a fan of TJR as many others. Her books don‘t seem to have much of an emotional impact for me.
