2.5 rounded up
Revisado: 04-13-25
Adelaide Henry starts out leaving her family home after a tragedy and makes her way to a new homestead in Montana.
There is a diverse group of characters but really the only one that is somewhat developed is Adelaide.
This book was frustrating to read, because it kept promising some big reveal, but when it finally was it was a little lack luster.
I would have enjoyed this book if the story of the women were written in more of a historical fiction genre w/out the creepy trunk and more exploration into the subplots that we were introduced too.

Historia
Hailed by The New York Times as "a marvel of storytelling", The Things They Carried’s portrayal of the boots-on-the-ground experience of soldiers in the Vietnam War is a landmark in war writing. Now, three-time Emmy Award winner-Bryan Cranston, star of the hit TV series Breaking Bad, delivers an electrifying performance that walks the book’s hallucinatory line between reality and fiction and highlights the emotional power of the spoken word.

Difficult conversations
Revisado: 04-01-25
This was a tough one for me. I wanted to love it but didn’t. It’s a tough subject that is so hard for soldiers to discuss. But I would have liked it better if the stories were true

Quick read

This book is written in the form of letters from a dad to his gay son trying to make amends for how he treated him.
I enjoyed the premise but at times was bored with the letters and excuses he made to not be a great parent.

I liked it. Angus King’s narration on the audio version is done very well.
The story is definitely not a light mystery. I didn’t care for the cruelty scenes to the animals personally but it did help tell the story of the kidnapper.
There are some things that felt unfinished which accounts for the star rating.

Great concept

This book starts out strong with a great concept. The characters are not the moody believable. I don’t care for twists when it turns out that everyone was just lying the whole time. Still an ok read.

Historia
In an unnamed Latin American country, a mysterious plague quickly spreads, erasing the memory of anyone infected. Angustias Romero flees with her family, but their flight is tragically cut short when she loses both her children. Consumed by grief, she finds herself within the hallucinatory expanse of Mezquite—a town corrupted by greed and populated by storytellers, refugees, and violent, predatory gangs. Here, Angustias is finally able to lay her children to rest at the Third Country, a cemetery run by the larger-than-life Visitación Salazar and a refuge beyond suffering and fear.

sad tale
Revisado: 02-21-25
The story follows Angustias, a mother fleeing her hometown with her husband and two young kids. Both kids die and the story focuses on them trying to find a place to bury them.
On this journey they face theft, struggle for food, stolen documents, and sadness along with many other refugees.
I thought the characters didn’t have a lot of depth. It was hard to relate to them. I like what the author was trying to convey.

I thought I would enjoy this one more than I did. The plot was intriguing, The main character Kelly Medina, meets a young woman who has the same name.
The second part was better than the first but I thought the twist was predictable.

Great Biography
Revisado: 02-11-25
Tupac’s death left a lasting image on me, I was younger, in middle school and still remember where I was when I heard about his death. His music was influential. It wasn’t until I was older that I understood the depth of his songs and the political statement that he was making.
Staci Robinson was asked by his mother to write this story, which took many years to accomplish. But the story makes him come alive again.
He lived a lot in those 25 years, accomplished singer and actor.
