When Lauren returns home to her flat in London late one night, she is greeted at the door by her husband, Michael. There’s only one problem—she’s not married. She’s never seen this man before in her life. But according to her friends, her much-improved decor, and the photos on her phone, they’ve been together for years.

I liked this book! Would like to read more in this vein. Felt a bit like the adult version of the books like Hatchet and Island of the Blue Dolphin that I read when younger.

Shari Franke’s childhood was a constant battle for survival. Her mother, Ruby Franke, enforced a severe moral code while maintaining a façade of a picture-perfect family for their wildly popular YouTube channel 8 Passengers, which documented the day-to-day life of raising six children for a staggering 2.5 million subscribers. But a darker truth lurked beneath the surface—Ruby’s wholesome online persona masked a more tyrannical parenting style than anyone could have imagined.

Anna Williams-Bonner has taken care of business. That is to say, she’s taken care of her husband, bestselling novelist Jacob Finch Bonner, and laid to rest those anonymous accusations of plagiarism that so tormented him. Now she is living the contented life of a literary widow, enjoying her husband’s royalty checks in perpetuity, but for the second time in her life, a work of fiction intercedes, and this time it’s her own debut novel, The Afterword. After all, how hard can it really be to write a universally lauded bestseller?

Jacob Finch Bonner was once a promising young novelist with a respectably published first book. Today, he’s teaching in a third-rate MFA program and struggling to maintain what’s left of his self-respect; he hasn’t written—let alone published—anything decent in years. When Evan Parker, his most arrogant student, announces he doesn’t need Jake’s help because the plot of his book in progress is a sure thing, Jake is prepared to dismiss the boast as typical amateur narcissism. But then...he hears the plot.

Sharply observant and outrageously funny, Rejection is a provocative plunge into the touchiest problems of modern life. The seven connected stories seamlessly transition between the personal crises of a complex ensemble and the comic tragedies of sex, relationships, identity, and the internet.

Very creative format. Funny at times. Captures the feeling of loneliness in modern times. There is one chapter that was a bit too much for me, which I wish I had skipped. Otherwise, I enjoyed the book and was thought provoking

Real Americans begins on the precipice of Y2K in New York City, when twenty-two-year-old Lily Chen, an unpaid intern at a slick media company, meets Matthew. Matthew is everything Lily is not: easygoing and effortlessly attractive, a native East Coaster and, most notably, heir to a vast pharmaceutical empire. Lily couldn't be more different: flat-broke, raised in Tampa, the only child of scientists who fled Mao’s Cultural Revolution. Despite all this, Lily and Matthew fall in love.

Really enjoyed this novel, especially the characters and the multi generational element. I thought the cover of the book was a picture of surfboards at first, but it is not.

Coyote America is both an environmental and a deep natural history of the coyote. It traces both the five-million-year-long biological story of an animal that has become the "wolf" in our backyards and its cultural evolution from a preeminent spot in Native American religions to the hapless foil of the Road Runner. A deeply American tale, the story of the coyote in the American West and beyond is a sort of Manifest Destiny in reverse.

Became a Coyote fan
Revisado: 08-30-24
Really interesting history. I enjoyed the inclusion of evidence on coyotes in suburban Aztec cities as the start of this story. That is my new favorite fact to share. The excerpts from the Lewis and Clark expeditions was also really cool. The mythical tales from Native American history were also very fascinating. I also thought the evidence about what coyotes are actually eating in urban settings and the unusual cases such as coyotes that learned to eye moose were very fascinating. Overall, a great book and nice mix of modern vs historic facts along with more philosophical and mythical musings.

Revisado: 08-08-24
Really weird book in the best way. Fun and complex characters with interesting flaws and arcs. Dialogue, especially inner dialogue, was really funny. Loved the format of the main character’s job in relation to the other characters
