I liked this little story! I appreciate when people appreciate nature; I should get out more when it‘s not icy. Extra credit for finding this in a little free library and gifting it to a friend.

A totally unrelated bookmark but the PNW does have woods so 🤷🏽‍♀️

I am personally offended by everyone who didn‘t put this book in S tier for the year. It was very good, no notes. The mood of the story was very “getting lost in the woods” which was the goal I believe.

One bookmark to note the day‘s progress and one bookmark to note yesterday‘s progress 💁🏽‍♀️

This collection of stories really satisfied the prompt! I like a short story collection as a palette cleanser, maybe a transition to my next mood reads.

I like horror stories now! I never really considered the genre as something I enjoy but this book had a good mix of creepy crawlies and characters that I loved. Perfect for moody fall reading!

I really enjoyed this book! It took me a long time to get through it but it was thoroughly spooky exacerbated by reading the English translation. I felt a little like the main character where he was missing some information due to not being a native speaker. Ghosty nail art to go along with the story

I loved this book and all its characters. A real life horror story. I do enjoy reading about female resilience and one of the background characters had my name.

I liked this book and the unreliable narrator! It is very character driven, I wish there was more weather though 😅. It also has a satisfyingly messy ending!

I‘m surprised there‘s not more reviews for this book! It‘s 400 pages but I finished it in just a few days worth of reading time. Filled with dark humor that had me laughing out loud, I loved the characters Maggie Thrash wrote. Also the setting of the satanic panic? Say less

This wasn‘t my favorite Moreno-Garcia book but her writing and characters are always enjoyable! Lots of perspective shifts in this book and an old Hollywood setting. I don‘t know why but I love a rewritten bible story.

Omggggg this book was a ride. A little mystery, a little suspense, a little gore, and a realistic world that I could easily visualize. Still gives me the heebie jeebies

I liked this story! Very spooky all throughout. There were various twists at the end which I don‘t know if it‘s the author‘s style but I can see why some people might not rate it as highly. A happy ending but not too happy though!

I just recently read Killers of the Flower Moon and was so excited to read this book with my book club. Very well researched as always, I enjoyed how the facts were put together in such a way to feel like a novel. It was fun to read a story set on a ship. The hardcover had so many extras like the maps and photo pages, loved it!

I loved the beginning of this book! I agree with other reviews that the end was pretty meh but the overarching relationship was satisfying to me and throughout the book I would laugh at the absurdity.

This book tried to kill me!! I loved it so much I wish I had started it on a vacation or something so I could have finished it in one day. Leigh Bardugo is an always buy for me. And the hardcover is beautiful!

Yooooo this book was so troubling and gave me anxiety the whole time, I loved it! I liked the contrast between perspectives with different lengths of chapters, it really added to the characterization. And the ending? Chef‘s kiss. Love a messy ending

The subject of this book was interesting and I liked reading about family, adoption, belonging and immigration. I thought it was a little long, would be great on audio!

I loved having the physical copy of this book. I ate it up in less than a week! I can‘t say too much or I‘ll give something away

This book has to be top 5 of the year for me! It was well researched, the changing perspectives really gave so much to the world building, the characters were realistic. I felt like the world was similar to idiocracy with the plot of hunger games. I recommend!!

February book club pick: a multilayered story that follows a complex character in his journey to the afterlife. I don‘t think I‘ve read anything quite like this story and I can tell why it won the booker prize!

Okurrrrr! I appreciated the acknowledgement of privilege and class throughout this exploration of a character‘s experience with sugaring; I want more though! And I loved the imagery, voice and characterization of the night out with the group of sugar babies; I wish there were more!

Wooooow! I need so much more of Emma Cline‘s writing and characters and worlds. I loved The Girls so much that I picked up this book without reading the synopsis. I had so many feelings while I read this book. For sure pick

Neil Gaiman is a genius. I always enjoy the worlds he builds. This book was so fun. I think books with ghosts in them are so interesting

This book! Such beauty! Books like these make me feel like a book snob. My book club read and discussed for this book and I loved sharing it with my friends 💕

The story was a fun concept and a nice change in perspective of the apocalypse. It eventually started feeling a little long winded but otherwise I enjoyed it!

Beautiful! These stories were so poetic, moving and easily digestible. I love that they were all set in Colorado too. It got me out of a slump of reading a few pages and switching books.

I‘m so glad I got a chance to read this. What a well researched and eloquent book to inform people about a highly publicized traumatic event. It gave me goosebumps

“If ever there was a story without a shadow, it would be this: that we as women exist in direct sunlight only.”

Wow wow wow! This book was so beautiful!!! This was the first book I saved to my TBR when I got this app and it just became available through my library app. What a lovely look at the role of women and their relationship with nature and the world 💕

I read this with my book club and it is filled with conversation starters and ideas for community building which we loved. I felt like it was less accessible to me, a person with no organizing experience and limited knowledge of movements in history. Still good though

I like reading books about ghosts! This story was full of action on every page with ghosts doing spooky stuff and sometimes confusing because of the fast pace.

I did read the whole thing but thought it was okay. Maybe it was too violent for me? 🤷🏽‍♀️

This story is poetic, meaningful, deep, heart wrenching, lovely. What an important perspective of receiving care during a dark time. All people should read this!

I liked to learn about Native American culture in this story! I love a bounty hunter moment. The plot was so different from what I usually read so I appreciate it for that too.

My last book of 2020! I liked this story. It was comforting as an end to the year. I hope to keep up with my reading log in 21 and be more intentional about reflecting on the books.

The hype is real!! I loved this story for the writing style, characterization, plot, ending and all of it pretty much. 💕

This book was a good introduction to the conflict in the Middle East. I‘m feeling a bit burnt out over sociopolitical topics but the story made the topic more digestible.

I like the world of crazy rich Asians, I think it‘s so fun! I think I liked the first book better though. And I‘ve read so many books that are similar to this one this year that I felt a little bored.

It was good! I just didn‘t like it hahaha I thought it was long and slow.

Omg! This book was a trip. It was recommended by a local indie bookseller and I‘m so thankful! I‘ve been stuck in a few slow books recently but I tore through this story.

Good story, but I did feel like some elements didn‘t connect in the end. I could have read 100 more pages to tie up some of the loose ends. Also, dissecting books in a book club is not good for trying to enjoy the act of reading hahaha

I hope when I think of the summer of 2020 I remember my lengthy affair with a Russian man instead of what‘s actually going on in my real life and the world. This was a wonderful story and I enjoyed the thoughtful writing and characterization. I set a reading goal to finish a chunky book and I think this satisfies that goal.

Good! This book was plot driven so it lacked some characterization in my opinion. It definitely made me think about life.

It took me far too long to finish this book! I have been so distracted lately by current events, studying for my board exam, moving, and finishing my doctorate. I‘ll probably reread sometime when I have more brain space.

It was Mr. Green, in the study, with the wrench! I really felt like I was playing clue throughout this book with all the characters and motives. Very nice!

I think I would have liked this book more if I had read it in high school. Also I think I started with the second book in a series? I don‘t know, it is from a little free library

I was transported by this book! The subject is relevant and although the resolution wasn‘t “happy,” it was real

This is way different from what I usually like to read but it was a welcome reprieve from current events. Now I‘m reading for darker subjects again 😈

That‘s crazy, man. Have you tried DMT?

I‘m simultaneously listening to the testaments and I‘ve noticed I read two similarly themed books at a time the past few months. I‘ll take light hearted, uplifting recs if anyone has a good one!

Yay! It was nice to dissociate from my life within this story.

Beautiful writing, slow, thoughtful, and a little rambley. I do love the PNW

I cried every chapter. So good and so sad.
