panI strongly disliked this book. I only picked this because it was the first month of my BOTM subscription and I wanted to pick something. It was bleak, overly long and the plot was uninspired. I don‘t have to like the characters in books I read, but I want to at least care about what happens to them. Every single character was one-dimensional. I doubt I will even remember that I read this book in a few months. At least it‘s off my shelves.
I could honestly repost Mulvaney‘s entire conversation, but I think I‘ll just highlight this. #mulvaney #mickmulvaney #thedivider #peterbaker #susanglasser #ukraine #russia #foreignpolicy #corruption #donaldtrump #impeachment #presidency #internationalpolitics #worldhistory #history #politicalscience
pickThis is the most immersive book I‘ve read in a long time. Kapoor brings modern India to life with the haves, have nots, and those who have way too much. Starting with one tragic event, Kapoor peels off many layers of the story surrounding that event from the perspectives of several characters, which is something I love in a book. Characters who are not necessarily lovable but real are another and Age of Vice is full of these. Lives up to the hype!
pickThis is an epic that is not going to be for everyone. It is a bit violent and gritty. There are a few characters, and a switching timeline. I dove in and was totally taken by Ajay, and while part of me wishes we had stuck with him I understand why the views switch, you get a deeper & rounded view of the situation, of the politics and relationships. There is a lot to take in, I did half on audio which worked well for me.
Let‘s play a fun game called how many quotes can we read that we can apply to today? #billclinton #impeachment #peterbaker #unitedstates #uspresidency #uspolitics #ushistory #corruption #history #politicalscience
pickTaylor & Redondo's Nightwing run is a balm for anyone weary of overly grimdark, nihilistic story-telling: heroes saving lives and helping their communities. This story is about the nature of your heart--literally and metaphorically. Plus, Dick & Babs are adorable.
pickEeeee! I love 💕 where this volume ended, kind of feels like one nemesis down, one to go, but that's really last on my list of reasons why I love it. Everybody helping out, and the relationship confirmation- the hand placement?! 👀. Just squeeing with joy over here, which is exactly what I want from this series. ☺️
