The Motel Life: A Novel | Willy Vlautin

Pickpick

Here is another audiobook from the haze that was February. It‘s a gritty tale of two brothers who have been surviving on their own since their teens. Everything gets turned upside down early one morning when one of them has an accident. The book walks a fine line by making the reader empathize with everything the main characters have been through while not hiding how absolutely stupid and horrible some of their decisions are.

I thought it being about a young woman searching for her missing friend (and the 2020 PEN/Hemingway winner), this book would be right up my alley. But I've been reading, what would normally take me a few days, for three weeks now. Not giving up. Just have to accept this one's gonna take me a while. #currentlyreading

Out of 3 5⭐️s for July, I‘m going with the character-driven, funny and well-plotted second book in the Porter Beck series. This has Longmire vibes as it centers around a small town Nevada sheriff.

Both other 5s were excellent as well and the roundups are definitely worth mentioning.

Michael read the Drunken Mary Kay Lady story out loud to a room of (mostly) female librarians a few years back and it was my first exposure to his humor and sarcasm. I'm now three books in and keep recounting his stories to anyone who will listen to be- though I don't nearly do them justice. Can we have a do-over meeting, Michael? Share a shot and work on our bucket-list making together?

The Divorcees | Rowan Beaird

Mehso-so

Before this I was unaware of divorce ranches in Reno where women could live for six months in order to file for a divorce. The plot was not predictable, but it didn't have much of a climax and sometimes felt repetitive.

plemmdog One of the best 1930s movies ever, George Cukor‘s “The Women”, features a storyline at a Nevada divorce ranch. The entire cast is women. It‘s a hoot, if you‘ve never seen the movie! 2mo
ChaoticMissAdventures I have been thinking about this time period a lot lately now that some politicians are talking about banning no fault divorce. Sorry this didn't work for you but at least you are learning about an interesting history? 2mo
