Truck is certainly a strange and difficult novel, and one I would only recommend to a selected few.ħ0's antinovel that attempts to explain the self-conseptual chaos of early puberty by repeating that very chaos in writing. But in Dutch, there is this battle going on that I really did find quite profound, as on the one hand we have her cheeky boyish traits on the outside, but inside there is a young woman awakening who is curious and complex and yearning for a settled future as somebody's wife: away from the road away from a possible life of criminality. It felt like Dunn was still learning on the job. Truck has a lot of profanity running through it, and stream of consciousness ramblings that can at times just go on for way too long. This early novel, which featured a small for her age 15-year-old tomboy rebel runaway may have given her the idea of creating the albino dwarf Oly in Geek Love many years later. Like Geek Love, Dunn clearly had a thing for writing about outsiders. Just tells it like it is - smelly armpits, zits, wet knickers, piss & poop and all that. It doesn't faff about about when it comes to the human body. This goes places most other writers wouldn't dare go. This is not your typical coming of age story.

Eat by Brad PilonBut what you eat, when you do eat, MATTERS. That's the only gripe i have with this book. Just because you get thin does not mean you're healthy. I don't like this mentality that just because your fasting habits will keep you slim, you can consume whatever you want without really thinking about it. No matter how many times you tell me "it almost doesn't matter what you eat during the feeding period, fasting fixes everything!" I can't support this. I took off one star for the overall rating and story only because the author promotes the idea of drinking diet soda during the zero calorie phase of your fast. I'm still new to doing it and I find it challenging, but books like this as well as THE OBESITY CODE have convinced me to make it part of my life. So far, this is the most in depth and detailed book on fasting I've read. I still have my first edition hardback copy. I couldn’t put it down and immediately bought the sequel, Something Blue, as soon as it was out. I read Giffin’s first novel, Something Borrowed, shortly after it released in paperback in 2005. Now that I’ve graduated and have read for fun time once again, I decided to get all caught up. Reading All We Ever Wanted reignited my spark for Giffin’s true-to-life stories. This means that I had a stack of Giffin’s novels on my shelf that were long overdue and calling my name. The big bummer of going back to school in ’14 was that my read for fun time went out the window. So I think it’s safe to say that just about everyone can find something or someone to relate to in her books. Her characters often find themselves in relatable situations, usually involving relationships – romantic relationships, forbidden relationships, unconventional relationships, friendships, family relationships, etc. I always feel like I’m right inside the story, experiencing everything alongside her characters. Reading her newest book reminded me of why I am such a fan of her writing. Last month I was fortunate enough to receive an advance reader copy of Emily Giffin’s latest novel All We Ever Wanted.

ButlerI think he had some kind of protection spell of his own that shielded him from me and the others. “How many is enough? Eight? Eighty? Besides, I never even realized he was nearby until it was too late. “There’s no way you could have known he would come after me the way he did, hiding behind the church and letting them do his dirty work.” He looked down at her, his fingers trailing down the soft skin of her back and then he gripped her hip and turned her to face him. She turned her head and looked at him while he stroked the curve of the dragon’s tail with his fingertip. Dae said you’re part of the nest now, part of his family.” “This must be what happens when dragons heal. The creature looked deadly and beautiful at the same time. Where the scar from the sword should have been, there was now a tattoo of a red dragon with its wings spread and talons curled. Her beautiful red hair was pulled forward so the entire length of her back was exposed to the light. “Brone? Come here.” Her voice wavered a little, as though she was fighting tears, and he rushed into the bathroom to find her faced away from the long mirror over the sink and looking over her shoulder at her back. 5/28/2023 0 Comments Want by Lynn Steger StrongIn Want, Lynn Steger Strong explores the subtle violences enacted on a certain type of woman when she dares to want things-and all the various violences in which she implicates herself as she tries to survive. Sasha is facing a crisis, too, and perhaps after years apart, their shared moments of crux can bring them back into each other's lives. When she reaches out to Sasha, her long-lost childhood friend, it feels almost harmless-one of those innocuous ruptures that exist online, in texts. As she tries to balance her dream and the impossibility of striving toward it while her work and home lives feel poised to fall apart, she wakes at ungodly hours to run miles by the icy river, struggling to quiet her thoughts. Years after coming to New York to try to build a life, she has found herself with two kids, a husband, two jobs, a PhD-and now they're filing for bankruptcy. Named a Best Book of 2020 by Time Magazine, The Los Angeles Times, NPR, Vulture, The New Yorker, and Kirkus Grappling with motherhood, economic anxiety, rage, and the limits of language, Want is a fiercely personal novel that vibrates with anger, insight, and love. |
