pickAn enjoyable holiday romance! It‘s a bit repetitive in places and the word “magical” was seriously overused in the beginning, but as someone who has stayed at The Plaza during the holiday season numerous times, I couldn‘t help but like it!

#pop24 - book with 24 letters in the title
pickI picked up the book on Monday, & finished it on Wednesday! 😂
This is my second Percival Everett (after Dr. No), & I'm searching out the backlist (luckily, I have a few on Kindle already). Considering I don't like Huckleberry Finn, I'm surprised at how much I enjoyed this retelling! It's not quite 5 stars, as there were a couple of bits that were hard to read.

pickAnother series started, and I loved it! I didn't get the culprits in this one, and looking forward to reading the next one.

pickWas interested in this after reading that it was a major influence on the original Matrix movie. And like the first few times I saw The Matrix, I didn‘t grasp all of it, but I did understand it well enough that I wasn‘t totally lost! Definitely see how groundbreaking it was when it was published in 1984. I‘m glad I read it!

panThis seems to be an #unpopularopinion, but this didn‘t do it for me. This is another character-driven book where not much happens. It‘s just a bunch of privileged or bohemian people doing a lot of drugs and having a lot of sex. I need plot! Or some semblance of a plot. I would‘ve bailed but was reading this for #pop24, a book about a 24 year-old. I‘m just glad it‘s over.

pickLoved it! I‘m not a huge sci-fi girl but this is my 2nd Weir book (also loved The Martian) so maybe I just love his sci-fi. Just a great read!

panThis is on the Modern Library list of 100 best novels, but I‘ll be damned if I can figure out why. I guess it‘s one of those books that I just didn‘t get?
