Thanks for the tag, @TheSpineView! 🤗
1. Not to brag, but I was pretty good in high school; I graduated 3rd in my class of over 600 students (thank goodness, for I would have hated to give a speech!).

pickDifferent than what I thought (in that Isles doesn‘t appear at all), and not like the tv show (yet), but I found it a fun read and will continue the series. Very bingeable.
