Wish Goodreads let you give half stars - I would give this 3 1/2 stars however this is not my favorite genre so that undoubtedly affects my view. I also am more curious about what happens after the book ends but that is also an unfair expectation of what is YA book.

Loved this book.

It was a slow build but I loved this book.

Fascinating

So this is a real page turner but I have serious issues with it that other reviewers have articulated better than I can. A 40+ year old doctor has a sexual relationship with a 17 year old girl and repeatedly tries to justify it and the main characters admits to sexual thoughts towards his teenage babysitter. As another reviewer put it, it is a middle aged man's sexual fantasy, salacious and sexually explicit. I had already been irritated by the protaganist in the first book of the series find him to be smug and self-important.

Thoroughly enjoyed this one

Took me a while to get though it, as is often the case with non fiction, but fascinating.

Fun read. Didn't realize that it was set in my neighboring town till I started reading it although I did know that John Green grew up around here.

Loved it! First Terry Pratchett book I have read- people have been recommending him to me for years. Will definitely read more.

Great biography of an incredible man. I listened to the Audible version. We could really do with a true leader like MLK Jr today as Trump takes a wrecking ball to democracy in this country. This biography took the time to discuss the whole man and what motivated him. As with all great non-fiction I finished this book with a longer to-read list and wanting to read about more people, especially Coretta Scott King

This is collection of the Slow Horses short stories and I just read the Marylebone Drop as I progress through the series in order

This is a brilliant book. A “crash course” or overview of World History, written for young people. The writing is wonderful and I particularly like how at the end the author writes about history that he lived through and then writes about how his viewpoints have changed with time. Illuminating and illustrates how history is not just facts - but an investigation and discussion as to what those facts are.

I strongly recommend this book to anyone interested in history and I would urge all high-school students to read it before commencing their World History class.

Definitely a book I would read again.

Great book. Just reread it so that I can go see the movie now

Slow horses series; these are getting better and better

Well it was readable but who the hell could find it funny. Reading it made me cranky. And just so fantastical as to be stupid really. To be honest words fail me with this book, it just seemed very juvenile

Very enlightening. I listened on Audible. Every American should read/listen to this

Enjoyed it more than Magpie Murders

Listened to this on Audible. Totally articulated by belief in the importance of language and how it can be used to manipulate us.
