I plodded through 92 pages and quit! It was so boring!! I read reviews that said it gets better in part 2, but I just could not commit the mental energy to get there. Too many other books to try instead.

📚💙 Book of the day: My Murder by Katie Williams - unusual speculative murder mystery where the victim is cloned and tries to solve her own murder. A little hard to follow at times, but engaging.

📚💙 Book of the day: Ten Planets by Yuri Herrera - speculative sci-fi short story collection. Many of the stories were extremely short & experimental, making them rather unsatisfactory. 🤷‍♀️

I struggled to like My Friends (I find Backman to be very hit or miss for me) and The Bone Clocks is too intimidating! 😂
