⭐️⭐️⭐️ Totally fine and nothing special. Book about Perl Jam told by a music critic and without new interviews or perspectives of the band. I wanted something that didn‘t ask much of me and this fit the bill. If you‘re into music biographies and/or Pearl Jam, it‘s worth a look.

BarbaraBB Eddie Vedder was so cool in those days! 13h

TheBookHippie @BarbaraBB He is STILL cool 😂♥️✊🏼 he still puts on amazing concerts 🎉 12h
fredthemoose @BarbaraBB He was and is! My Gen X heart will always have a soft spot for him and 90s grunge in general 7h
fredthemoose @TheBookHippie I totally agree—the book was not nearly as good as the subject! 7h
TheBookHippie @fredthemoose just saw him less than a year ago for a couple of concerts he was on fire. 🔥 7h
BarbaraBB @TheBookHippie @fredthemoose That‘s true, he still rocks and I still love Pearl Jam, but Eddie Vedder more and more looks and sounds like Bruce Springsteen - who I like a lot less than Pearl Jam 😀 3h

⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ I liked this, although maybe a bit less than others here. Interesting story of two women, or a woman and a family in the aftermath of post-WWII Netherlands. The subject and twist were interesting and the book was well written. I found the resolution of the main relationship not believable, which left me a little less enthusiastic than I might have been otherwise. #WPF25

Tamra I agree, I wasn‘t all that enthusiastic. Felt like it was trying too hard to be literary. 7h

https://www.readyourcolor.com/ is a free quiz that asks you to choose whether or not you would read or pass on a variety of books based on a brief description and then spits out what colour of reader you are. It also suggests a number of titles you might like to read. I felt like my result was pretty accurate. If you take the quiz, let me know what colour you are!

BarbaraBB I was a bit of most with blue and read both 30%. However few of the 24 blurbs appealed to me! 1d
thebacklistbook Orange and blue were tied for me but it only showed me the write up for Orange. 1d
DGRachel The first pass gave me a tie between red and orange and declared me an orange reader. I took it again and was overwhelmingly a red reader. Both descriptions seem accurate. The book recommendations - a little less so. Fun quiz, though. Like @BarbaraBB very few of the blurbs sounded interesting. 1d
TheLudicReader @DGRachel the book recs offered were mostly books I‘d read. The first one was Everything I Never Told You and as I loved that book I suddenly felt like this quiz knew me better than I knew myself. Lol. 23h

THIS IS RIDICULOUSLY ACCURATE!!!
Alexis Hall posted on IG about which London Calling character you are by birth month, and absolutely nailed it for me!!! Absolutely all of this. Spot on. It‘s like Hall is running around here somewhere. Maybe those aren‘t ghosts at all, but Alexis Hall running around my house at night. Hm.

julesG I got the March James Royce-Royce. 😂😂 2d
GingerAntics @julesG I saw that, but it wouldn‘t let me respond to you for some reason. You‘re the ~mysterious one!!! Love it! 2d
julesG Mysterious is good. 😂 2d

GingerAntics @julesG exactly! You can be whatever you want! Just don‘t name your baby the same name as you AND your spouse. That‘s a bit much. 2d
julesG 🤣🤣🤣 What was AH thinking when he came up with this idea??? 2d
GingerAntics @julesG 🤣😂🤣 that two men with the exact same name who fell in love and decided to hyphenate would absolutely have a THIRD James Royce-Royce? 2d
julesG Yep. Absolutely bonkers. Can't imagine that it'd happen in real life and am probably going to be proven wrong. 🤣 2d
GingerAntics @julesG yeah, I‘m sure it has happened already. I think that‘s part of what makes it funny. There is this part of your brain going “that would never happen in real life,” but then there is another part going “it probably already has.” 2d
