SEALS are intense and dedicated!

This was my first book by Moreno-García & I want to download her others now too. This was great.

A sweet book showing the power of decades long female friendships

I want to give this more than a thumb‘s up. Such a wonderful man and story!

Creepy, and a page turner. Perfect for October!

His novels read like poetry. He has a great way with words.

A moving collection of essays written by Marines themselves and taken from their diaries.

Some interesting insights were provided

A fun read

A fun adaptation and easy read

A good story, but so much longer than it needed to be. We have a literature teacher in my book club who reminds us that this was published in monthly installments. Apparently Dickens even applied feedback from readers to tweak future portions of the novel with this work, so that probably led to more rambling.

There were parts I couldn‘t relate to, but through it all, Strayed‘s vulnerability drew me into her adventures.

Strayed speaks clearly & compellingly. She has great life advice and admits her mistakes.

This book keeps you guessing

A fast paced, fun book

It took me awhile to get interested, but it was quite enjoyable so I‘m glad I stuck with it

This book makes a lot of sense. I took notes & have recommended it to others!

Interesting & a quick read

Reichs has a unique style that keeps you interested & teaches as well.

An easy read & lots to think about. I still prefer Can‘t Hurt Me by the Seal himself!

Not my favorite Albom book, but still a neat read.

A good reminder that just because you don‘t speak with some friends every day, they can often be counted on and rally.

A tough & long book, but worthwhile to stick with. I Can see wanting to read in Spanish as a down the road possibility.

This book had much more of a storyline & suspense than I was expecting. It was a pleasant surprise!

An easy, fun read

Good reminders and practical tips to make our communication more readable & absorbable.

A good reminder that some relationships being temporary can be healthy.

I think I read this in high school, but nice to reread

A cute book & easy read

A worthwhile read!

A good trip down memory lane

This was okay, not the best & not the worst.

A different book, but intriguing. There were parts that didn‘t go as I hoped, but that made it more realistic.

Another interesting read that covers multiple decades. I love Irving‘s foreshadowing.

An honest look into the devastation our minds can play on the act & rituals of eating.

A crazy novel that covers a lot of ground & years

I stuck with this one bc it was a bookclub book, but it was a little painful. I recognize that‘s the point, but I still don‘t have to enjoy it. I do feel a sense of relief and accomplishment to be finished though!

This book was an easy read, but not super compelling. I read it without having read to first two in the series, so that probably negatively impacted my experience.

This is worthwhile. It was neat to get a glimpse of what Harry has endured, but he also glosses over some parts and attempts to justify others. Still, I feel more sympathy for him, so I am glad I gave it a shot.

This was a fun read that wasn‘t all roses, but still left some things unsettled and pushed an optimistic message.

Interesting historical fiction. At points, slow, but worth the read!

This was a light, suspenseful read great for a beach vacation, but a lot of it was beyond unbelievable & not deep 😂

This book was sad & eye-opening. Some complex topics of race & family made for a lively bookclub discussion!

I‘m glad I read this. It gave me insight into Puerto Rico and its complex & painful history. There was a lot of jumping around that sometimes made it hard to follow & was repetitive.

Neat to get a peek into a different time & the depth of experiences that Higgins Clark has had.

An important book, difficult to read in parts, but honest

Amazing man and triumphs!

One of my faves! A classic!

It was interesting to learn about Wilson‘s background. She was willing to be vulnerable and exposed, but it is compelling & helps the reader be firmly on her side.

Very interesting to learn more about Melinda Gates. Her passion and purpose are undeniable in this book. It was heartwarming to see her use her platform for good and to be willing to stand up for what she feels is right.
