Characters were all pretty unlikable/not necessarily likeable, but was curious to see how it turned out. Five star weekend idea is kinda fun!

Liked the racial diversity of the characters and the overall flow of the friendships. Not really into gaming and this was obviously a huge part of the book so…

A good reminder that even adults and parents aren’t perfect and it’s never too late to say sorry, admit your mistakes, and/or reach out to an old friend or family member. 

Mixed feelings about so many POVs, esp at the beginning, but think it ultimately added to it. 

My Name Is Barbra

Barbra Streisand

DID NOT FINISH: 25%

Interesting, relaxing/introspective, and I liked her quirky comments. Part of me wanted to keep reading but 48 hours is just too long. I feel like it needed to/could’ve been way more concise. 

Self Care

Leigh Stein

DID NOT FINISH: 87%

Characters are so unlikeable and not developed. I think the concept is great and touches on a much-needed topic of self care and the toxicity of social media but the satire was overpowered by how cringy it was. Ended up googling the ending.
