This book kept me hungry the whole way through and ended with a true bang. As a Shakespeare scholar, I appreciate the level of attention given to the original texts. Honestly, this was terribly well-crafted and I will likely read it again to see the things I didn't see the first time.

This was a good, brainless and quick read. If you are a fan of 50 Shades, this will do it for you. Much more of a romance than a thriller, in my opinion.

The consideration of the humanity of AI is just...so good. I love that this wasn't just a continuation of the first book, and that it tackled many of the same issues that the first book did.

A good gentle-ish parenting book. Lotsssss of anecdotes. Someone needs to give the parent, Tony, a big hug and some help with inner-child healing. Dang.

Oh MY GOD THIS BOOK DEVASTATED ME. So much interpersonal drama. Really appreciated how the cast of characters was slimmed down and we were able to focus on the motivations and exploration of good and evil for each.

The ending of this book had me chewing my fingernails and turning pages so fast!!

Best since sandman.

This series fills up the Sandman shaped hole in my heart. So well crafted and so beautiful. I can't recommend it enough.

The concepts in this book are excellent. Really great read. However sometimes it felt really heavy-handed and the resolution came too easily for me to really feel it.

I hated this book to start. The format made me feel frustrated at its disjointedness. By the end, though, I had come to love the wry tone of the narrator and the ability to learn some random facts while enjoying a memoir.

Not excellent, not terrible. I wonder if I've gotten too old to appreciate Klosterman with the fervor that I used to.

Aw, this was sweet. Outside of the fact that the author referred to the ENTIRE STATE OF RHODE ISLAND as if it were just one small town, this was very enjoyable and sweet. I love these “rom com” type of books rather than anything raunchy. I enjoyed this and didn't want to stop reading it!

A solid business book. I found this to be most impactful for its information on level 1. There are many folks that have never been a part of level 1, and to educate those folks on what it is like to be there may be actually life changing.

My gosh I wish the third book was up on my holds. So lucky to have this to listen to while up with a sick kiddo in the night.

Queer elves! Trans orcs! Demons! Magic! Great artwork.

This book was a stinky pile of trash with some minimally interesting stuff tossed in the middle. Much less referential than RP1, though, for those of you that are into that.

This book is insufferable. In fact, the person who had it before me wrote the same thing at the end of each chapter. Bryson is so self-indulgent and smug, this felt impossible to get through.

I learned a ton from this book! It was really interesting hearing stories from this time which was so formative for me.

For people that enjoyed Meet Me In the Bathroom or Please Kill Me, this will be a hit.
