Review: All Fours

All Fours All Fours by Miranda July
My rating: 4 of 5 stars

Ok giving this book 4 stars if for nothing else, for staying in my head for so long. I started this book a long time ago but then I had to put it down because I wasn't sure I liked it. There's so little of this book that feels relatable to me. I don't usually like books that make a point by being really out there and I think this one absolutely does that and it was just a turn off for me. But I thought it got better as it went on (even though also more out there) and I found myself thinking about it long after I was done.

Review: The Strange Case of Jane O.

The Strange Case of Jane O. by Karen Thompson Walker My rating: 5 of 5 stars I don't even know how to write a review for this book. It's strange :) This is the story of Jane O. who walks into the office of her therapist, which she only met once many years before (even though he doesn't remember) and then doesn't come back. Until he gets a call that she woke up in the park and is now at the hospital and can't remember the last day. The story goes back and forth between Jane's diary entries and the therapist. And the more we find out, the more confused we get. It becomes hard to understand what's real and what's not. And you have to be willing to suspend your disbelief and just go with it. I loved Walker's writing from the very first page. Once I started reading this book, I could not put it down and wanted to see what happened to Jane O. If you're open to reading unusual books, you will love this one. with grati...

Review: Finding Grace

Image
Finding Grace by Loretta Rothschild My rating: 4 of 5 stars I read A LOT of books so it's really really rare for me to find a book with a premise I have never seen before. And this one took the cake. By the end of the first chapter, you're like WHOA did not see that coming. And then you're spending a bunch of the rest of this book reorienting. I know people will have mixed feelings but I loved it. I liked the twist and then the turn the story took. I liked how the author played with the way stories are told. I liked how the characters grew and surprised you both with their stupidity and humanness. I think this one will be controversial, people will love or hate. I am of the former camp. And I loved listening to the audio. with gratitude to netgalley and Macmillan Audio for an advanced copy in exchange for an honest review View all my reviews
