Happy Place
by Emily Henry

Slower than other EH books.
The Last Of The Mohicans
by James Fenimore Cooper
View in Library Catalog
The trouble I had with this book is that I did it as an audiobook. There were just too many characters, and sometimes the characters were referred to differently depending upon who was speaking about them. Add to that the challenges of the language of 1826 and I was not able to enjoy the book or really follow what was going on.
Birding With Benefits

Adorable nerdy romance. I cannot wait for more from this author.
The Book Of Guys
by Garrison Keillor
View in Library Catalog
This book was absolutely hysterical! It’s done as a compilation of short stories, from the man’s point of view, about being a man. For Example, the first story is about the God Dionysus who has lost his immortality and is now 50 years old and who was previously in charge of wine and orgies, but because of his age is now only in charge of wine. If you want something to make you laugh out loud, this is it!
The Bright Years

A very emotional book about family, reminding us that no family is perfect. I loved every character and empathized with them through their pain and heartache. A powerful debut, can't wait to read more from this author.
Trouble Is What I Do
by Walter Mosley
View in Library Catalog
I would say that the central part of this book is solid and enjoyable, but some of the peripheral stuff I could do without, including names of many people who have little or nothing to do with the story. And maybe it is just me, but I found the ridiculousness of the names, virtually all of them, to detract from the serious central plot. There is a god story in here, but you just have to wait for it to rise to the top.
Maktub
by Paulo Coelho
View in Library Catalog
This book is a collection of saying and very short tales that are meant to inspire and enhance a spiritual if not religious outlook. I was unimpressed. If you try, it’s not hard to find meaning in many events, and I think this author tried too hard and often ventured from spiritualism, that I would have been OK with, into religion, that I was not.
Miracle Polish
by Steven Millahuser

Wow. What a story! AS you read this book, you may think you know what is going to happen next, but trust me you will not see these sharp turns coming! I sounds simple; a man is sold a liquid, by a traveling salesman, that when applied to mirrors makes the person reflected in the mirror, look better. Not perfect or amazing, just a little more full of life and with the rough edges smoothed out. No big thing, right? Wrong!
Sunrise On The Reaping (a Hunger Games Novel)
by Suzanne Collins

Absolutely devastating. Great world building, as always with Suzanne Collins. But wow, I didn't think these could get any more heartbreaking.
A Very Punchable Face
by Colin Jost

Funny and at times surprisingly touching. Audio book misses out on a bunch of visials
