The Nine Lives of Romeo Crumb: Life One

L. Rifkin, Kurt Hartman

DID NOT FINISH

DNFed

The Farm

Joanne Ramos

DID NOT FINISH

The idea of this book fascinated me, but it fell short. I just couldn't get into the book. The characters feel shallow and underdeveloped for me. Maybe it's just that I'm not in the right mood to read this, I don't know, but I couldn't finish it. I'll try again another time, though.

Women Without Kids: The Revolutionary Rise of an Unsung Sisterhood

Ruby Warrington

DID NOT FINISH

More of an attempt at an autobiography that just wasn't working for me...

Shanghai Immortal

A.Y. Chao

DID NOT FINISH

I'm not a fan of bodily fluids or functions, and there are just far too many mentions of the different grosser ones for my brain to be able to get through. Which is disappointing because I was looking forward to the book.

I'm sure I'll try again at some point when I'm in a different head space.

Abeni's Song

P. Djèlí Clark

DID NOT FINISH

DNFed because I couldn't tolerate the different voices the narrator used in the audiobook. The high-pitched ones were downright painful.

Manhunt

Gretchen Felker-Martin

DID NOT FINISH

I love the idea of this book even though I'm not a horror fan, but the graphic descriptions of various things were too much for me. And really, that's why I tend to steer clear of horror.
