I could swear I read this book before, but I can't quite remember finishing it. I can't imagine why I would've DNF'd it prior, so I have to assume that life just got the better of me and I ended up returning it to the library. Anyways, so glad I gave it another chance and had the time this go around. I Wish You All The Best is so sentimental, heart wrenching, and gooey in all the right places. It's a novel that takes just short of a day to read if you're an avid reader. And it'll make your day to read it.
This seems like it has so much potential, but liable to put me in a reading slump because for me the style is hard to get through. That and the fact that it's in a trilogy that I'd feel forced to read...Had to DNF
I have several friends and family who have begun their transitions, who I think this novel would be monumental for. I've read a lot of LGBT books, but I Am J was certainly one of the best. It's a one sitting read that will have you feeling a range of emotions on each page.
Maybe it's the way it started, jumping right in, but I couldn't get into it. I took a leap with Josh Sundquist's Just Don't Fall years ago and loved it, but rock climbing isn't as interesting or captivating to me as skiing, I suppose.
This book was honestly disappointing. I expected a raw, poignant book about love, and uncovering a mystery through grief. What I got was absolutely nothing. I didn't feel anything for any of the characters, and it was very anti-climactic.
I couldn't follow this book very well. It seems like it would be quite the masterpiece, but the way it's written with the long paragraphs, it feels too overwhelming to try to force my way through.
This was a very insightful book, however it did seem to just be repetitive. I think this could be for people that suffer from BPD as much as it is for those who don't.
Just didn't seem like a novel I would enjoy, unfortunately.
I Hate Everyone But You by Gaby Dunn and Allison Raskin was a super quick read. I wasn't the biggest fan of the formatting, but once I settled in, I practically read the whole novel in one sitting. The characters weren't particularly compelling, nor was the insufficient plot. I didn't get attached to Gen or Ava, nor was the storyline really definite or engaging. I'll give it props for being a one sitting read, but the ending was meh. There was no real sustenance to it.
