DID NOT FINISH: 26%

I wanted to like this so much. I wanted to LOVE this. I'm focusing on my physical TBR backlist this year and this was one that I was excited to dive into.

 I love Meryl Streep and I thought the idea of reading a book about a movie club that watches her movies would be a good time. It was not a good time. It might have become a good time but there was so much heaviness and sadness in the first 80 pages that I just couldn't even fathom going further. Definitely check for TW and make sure you're in a good headspace if any of those TW might effect you before going into it. (TW: Cancer, Job Loss, Infidelity, Death)

Also, any book that says "She left out a breath she didn't know she'd been holding." six times in three pages is too much. #sorrynotsorry
