Regular: The Ultimate Guide to Taming Unruly Bowels and Achieving Inner Peace by Tamara Duker Freuman
4.0
This book felt perfect after I realized how much of my job deals with poop - and I also have IBS so this intrigued me anyway.
The beginning deals entirely with “regular” bowel movements and when you should see a doctor, then we start debunking some common myths/misconceptions surrounding poo and other problems people experience in the bathroom and the different ways to fix them.
It was interesting considering I’ve lived my whole life with problems in the bathroom. If you’re curious about bathroom issues (your own or in general) I’d recommend this.

Like many others, The Exorcist was my intro to the horror genre. I found this book to provide some insights into the movie that I wouldn’t have picked up on myself, especially considering my age when I was exposed to it (hint - I was likely far too young). So with this movie being a nostalgic thing for me, I was thrilled to see this book as an option, and even more so when I got the audiobook through NetGalley.
It’s not long, but it is pretty jam packed with information. I found it to be fascinating, but I don’t think it’ll be everyone’s cup of tea. There is a decent amount of technical-type stuff along with the behind the scenes stuff which can easily get boring if that’s not your thing. I think the narrator did a fantastic job of keeping it interesting though, and that’s a big plus.
