I might have liked this more if they took out the entire middle section about both protagonist's ancestry. There was forward movement in the plot until there wasn't and then suddenly the forward movement is there again after like 100 pages of interesting but irrelevant character building. If that middle section was edited, I might have found the sex cult rejection funnier. DNF around 70 percent.

One of my favorite books of the year. The characters and their situations are compelling. This book is about love and secrets and faith, and I couldn’t put it down.

While I did not enjoy this book much, I could see it making lists for "Best Book of 2023". The topics and characters are quite different, but this book gave me Tomorrow, and Tomorrow, and Tomorrow vibes.

Dou cinco estrelas a Wellness e acredito que tem tudo para se tornar um clássico. Nathan Hill construiu uma obra notável, rica em detalhes e profundamente criativa, onde nada é deixado ao acaso: cada aspecto parece meticulosamente pensado para servir à trama. A abordagem psicológica, embora claramente bem pesquisada, revela alguns pontos que talvez soem estranhos para quem atua na área, mas isso em nada diminui a autenticidade do texto. Pelo contrário, há algo de terapêutico em várias passagens do livro, que trazem insights genuínos sobre as complexidades da vida e dos relacionamentos humanos.
A análise sobre o Facebook, embora um pouco longa e densa, cumpre seu papel dentro do enredo, ajudando a ambientar o leitor e a contextualizar as transformações que influenciam os personagens. E falando nos personagens: Hill tem um talento especial para nos colocar na pele deles, captando sua essência e nos fazendo sentir suas alegrias e tristezas de uma forma visceral. Os momentos tristes, especialmente, são tão delicados e autênticos que você sente o peso, mas também a leveza de deixá-los ir. É um livro que não só se lê, mas se vive.
