Solid.

Solid

Wellness by Nathan Hill

This was fantastic -- unique, clever, great local color as well as explorations about feminism.

Decent.

The Endless Vessel by Charles Soule

 

Most of this was excellent and unique, but the ending was a bit weak.

Self-Care by Leigh Stein

 

Fun.

The Plinko Bounce by Martin Clark

 

Very clever plot with a nice twist. The narrator was not create, especially with the child's voice, but the book was solid.
