I love the Jack Reacher series, and A Wanted Man did not disappoint. I read it over the weekend! Great characters, action, twists, and turns. Another fun, thrilling ride from Lee Child!

Over the summer, high school senior Grace came out to family and friends as transgender. She hadn’t planned on returning to the football field because she’s a girl now. But the team needs a great kicker and they convince Grace it will work. Senior year will be a time for new friends, old friends, college recruiting visits, wild parties, prom, confusion, despair, pink hair, podcasts, haters, and lots of football!

It was a very detailed and amazing book with lots of twists and turns awaiting you around every bend.

3.5 stars. I feel torn about this book. It had a strong start introducing the brainy healer FMC and the MMC assassin who begrudgingly turns to her for a cure to an illness that is slowly sealing his fate in death. The premise has so much promise! I felt like the chemistry was under-delivered and the overarching plot felt rather underwhelming to me. I wanted more adventure and magic but instead there were brothels and boredom. I think I’ll skip future books in this romantasy series.

I read this for a bookclub, and it was not for me. The story follows the life of Isaac Dahl. This book isn’t that long, but the titular character’s life is (as promised) very long. The problem is, I never cared about the characters. They felt stiff. This felt like more of a catalog of events over time. Everything felt like an observation rather than emotion and personality driving action. I appreciate the LGBTQ representation in the first person protagonist but never really got into this audiobook I borrowed via Libby.

I love it because some days you just feel grumpy

It's a cute story about a girl in a wheelchair finding an injured elephant. My favorite part (without spoilers) is when Marshmallow reveals who he really is. They should make a sequel!

It's a great book and a great plot and one of the first books I ever read -ollie

Somewhat interesting and entertaining, but I didn’t like it as much as her other books.

This book was recommended by a coworker and I listened to the audio via Libby. Overall, this book gave me a lot to think about regarding current comforts, personal physical challenges, and mental fortitude. While I may not follow through with all of the book’s calls to action, I do think I’ll try to embrace some of its spirit.
