good books i've read recently (and one bad one)

it does get a little woowoo at times spiritual in a way that I don't know I'm entirely on board with but I did see where she was coming from and I found the vast majority of this really wonderful

the main character made it so that I could not have a good experience with this book I could not stand her

I thought the writing in this book was terrific like very concise very tight I thought he covered so much ground for how short of a book this was so I thought this was fantastic

this is simultaneously a heartbreaking but also humanizing look at this crisis

this story just got crazier and crazier with every turn but also more lovable somehow like it is so bizarre but it is also so sweet and so funny I just adored this

it surprised me just how choppy I found this book like we'd be in the midst of one discussion and then he would just bounce to another discussion and we'd be kind of in the middle of it and it made me feel like I had blacked out and missed something it was very rewarding though learning about some of this backstory some of this lore about women's basketball in the WNBA

this author tells this story in an extremely captivating way like I can see why a lot of people have loved this one it reads like a novel

I ended up being rather disappointed by like the back 75% of this book I felt like the first 25% was so strong and I really enjoyed my experience of listening to those chapters

she is unflinchingly honest in this Memoir she is feisty she's wise she's talented she is someone I admire so much and hearing her tell her own story with her own voice made this 10 times better I know this is what I'm going to want to listen to again at some point in my life

it's just as silly and whimsical as it sounds it's very unserious it's nothing lifechanging but it is really easy reading it's a lot of fun and I would recommend it if you love cats as I do
