Summer Reading Celebration

Excellent!

I loved this book! Jasper and Sloane have my heart! Can’t wait to read reckless.

Fiction based on an actual historical event. A young black nurse discoverers that 2 of her clients were sterilized without the knowing consent of their legal guardians. That is the true event. Many of the things she encounters in post-seregation Alabama give an accurate portrayal of what life was like for poor black families, and even well off families during that time. Her emotional struggles and character are completely fictionalized. Well written and very enlightening.

My grandson really enjoys this series as we read each book together.

The inspiration for "Moby Dick" Even if nonfiction isn't your thing, you'll love this!! Its amazing how we underestimate nature.... I will be visiting Nantucket as soon as possible to see where this ill fated ship launched from.

I really liked the CLSC lecture and I really liked this. Very Temperance Brennan and the 300s.

It was a great book and one of the first to actually surprise me!

Better than the Shippers in my opinion but the lack of a trigger warning really really really bothers me. I think that's what really bothered me about the Shippers, the fact there is absolutely no warning before assault on the page. TW: body dysphoria, disordered eating, cyberbullying including death threats, body shaming etc. Honestly I think having it being such a big part of the book and her character, its really damaging to not advise the reader especially with how young and uninformed romance skews right now.

Very compelling. I liked the will they won't they element and the questioning of truth. The book felt much shorter than anticipated. I easily got through half in my first sitting. What a great book to end pride on. Although I did guess the twist pretty early on it didn't really ruin it for me.

Strong debut. I really wanted to like the characters....but they are so unlikable. And the killers reason -great- their crazy mentally unstable attitude....didn't really fit. I wanted them to be a bit more.....rational normal. The third act is a high emotion thing but I think having the killer be cool calm and collected would make it fucking CRAZY. I really did love it though. And the ending - epic loved them.
