Trust Exercise by Susan Choi
2.0
I wanted to love this book so much more than I did and that is not the authors fault, it’s so eloquently written and fresh, BUT I kept seeing the teacher from Victorious instead of Mr. Kingsley
In the Dream House by Carmen Maria Machado
4.0
As a fat brown person who sometimes feels like too much to love. I understood where Carmen came from in some sense and I feel for her and what she is endured. I love knowing she found love in the end.
The 2000s Made Me Gay: Essays on Pop Culture by Grace Perry

I had no idea the reason that I have such high and gay expectations of love is because of Taylor Alison Swift.
The Southern Book Club's Guide to Slaying Vampires by Grady Hendrix
4.0
Who wants to form a book club? I enjoyed this so much, it really is steel magnolias meets Dracula. Excuse me while I now have nightmares about being gaslighted by a vampire.
Crying in H Mart by Michelle Zauner
5.0
Not only did this make me cry on multiple occasions it also made me appreciate my mother, my culture and the history we share. It also made me really hungry.
The Wind-Up Bird Chronicle by Haruki Murakami
4.0
I was told not to start my Murakami reading journey with the wind-up bird chronicle; I did enjoy the book but it did drag on. Nowhere to go but up from here. might go sit in a well.
Take Me Apart by Sara Sligar
5.0
This book took me 90% there and when it did I loved it, but I was more interested in Miranda’s past than the present.
We Have Always Lived in the Castle by Shirley Jackson
4.0
How lovely it would be to live on the moon, to be free of judgement and rumors. I really enjoyed this and like most of Jackson’s work I now consider Castle to be a favorite.
Ninth House by Leigh Bardugo
4.0
Dark academia with ooky spooky elements of magic, I’m in. Also I want to date Darlington, I’m sorry.
