so-so
I liked this book from the beginning, thought about DNFing in the middle, and ended up finishing it. I don‘t know what it is about Deb Caletti‘s books, but there is always something missing for me. I liked how honest the discussion around anxiety was, but didn‘t care for the romance or the dramatic second half.
Anybody else just happily going along and then realize it‘s Saturday and you forgot you have a bazillion book discussions on Sunday and you haven‘t touched those books? Oops. In my defense, this week was completely upended with kiddo‘s schedule so I lost track of the days, I was sick early in the week, and it‘s just been a tough time for me mentally.

pickA useful work read for me. Adding to my toolbox. ✅
pickI really liked this one. Not all of the doodles were meant to be ha-ha funny. And a lot of the humor is dark, but as someone with general/social anxiety I could relate to it a lot and enjoyed it. #BookSpinBingo #JoysOfJune

In other news... I‘ve decided to wander into Kind of Coping territory. Maybe it came too soon after Brosh, but it feels ... well, not as good. Let‘s leave it at that for now... continuing through. 😁
I have not gotten bingo yet 🙄
so-soThis has very subtle ‘Hatchet‘ and ‘Lord of the Flies‘ vibes going for it, but it also does not have any fae like I thought it did lol. It‘s intriguing as it more survival then it is spooky and has a mild pacing that can either bore one or entice them. The idea of the underground civilization was interesting in both good and bad ways.
pickA quick read and relatable for this reader, who has some social anxiety (probably worsened thanks to the pandemic) and a history of panic attacks. I was getting anxious just reading about some of the situations! Worth reading for non-anxious people especially.
panI thought this would be better. There wasn't much of a story line
