I need to go back and read the first three books again. I was too confused about who all the characters were. I thought it was more standalone than it actually is. 

The Last Murder at the End of the World

Felt too similar to Justin Cronin's THE FERRYMAN. 

The Titanic Survivors' Book Club

Ultimately, I could not handle Yorick's angst. Parisian drinking and yearning just isn't my thing. If I want to listen to someone whine about something they can't have, my toddler is more than happy to oblige.

Dragonfly in Amber

Diana Gabaldon

This book is massively, massively long. Too long. I’m 8 hours into the audiobook (roughly 21%) and even Davina Porter’s beautiful voice can’t stop me from being so freaking bored. 

Fifty Things That Aren't My Fault: Essays from the Grown-Up Years

Cathy Guisewite

DID NOT FINISH

Cathy is in a very different phase of life than I and I had a hard time relating. Her sense of humor also just wasn’t clicking for me. A great book for my mom, but less so for me.
