But this is both a pirate adventure book, but also a food book. So if you like either food books, or pirate adventures, or both, or neither I feel like this is still worth picking up. This book is just a lot a lot of fun.

This is considered a collection of poetry, but I feel like it's more like a piece of modern art. I don't have the book with me to hold up which is unfortunate because there's a lot of really great things to see visually in this book but I do have a review of it so you guys can check that out.

But this is just a really great really honest look at the idea of vulnerability and why we all avoid it and why we should be really embracing it.

This is a non-fiction book that talks about vaccinations, but Eula Biss does a really great job of talking about vaccinations in a very personable way.

This is her first novel and it is such a strong debut. I am just like completely in awe of this book. It isn't a perfect story, there are parts of it that bothered me a little bit. But still, the characters in here are so strong and so complex.
