Books I Read This Week 2018 – 4

 

 

 

 

 

It was a long weekend and that meant a lot of books, for me.

The Afterlives was quite an interesting read and even hard to explain. I liked it because it was so very unique. 

I wanted to read Molly’s Game because I’ve been wanting to see the movie and when my library added it to its pile, I figured it would be great to read it first. I liked it.

Green is another interesting book. A coming of age story of a white Jewish boy in a predominantly African American school/neighborhood. It was painful but a good read. 

Tell Me Why was my first time reading Corrigan and I loved it. Essays about ordinary but beautiful life and also sickness and motherhood. 

When Things Fall Apart was my regular fix of Pema. She never disappoints me.

I drove us back from San Diego and had just an hour left in the drive so Wishtree was the best book to tackle since it was only an hour long (at 2x speed.) and it was beautiful. wonderful. lovely.

I am not sure why I picked up The Wife Between Us because I thought it would be one of those mysteries I am so sick of reading but in the end it was not. I liked it quite a bit. There were two twists and I liked both of them. 

The Giver was a reread for the Middle Grade Lit Club I teach. It was even more powerful the second time around. So so so good.

The State of Affairs was for a client and I am glad I read it even though I skipped bits of it since I felt she could have used a better editor. Still a good book.

A good variety this week.
