A Guardian and a Thief by Megha Majumdar

 

I didn't enjoy this, but it would be interesting to discuss.

Girl Dinner by Olivie Blake

 

My expectations were low because I thought Gifted & Talented was kind of disappointing, but this was so, so good. It worked as a plot, the characters were great, the social commentary was great, and the sentences were sublime.

Totally Fine by Nick Spalding

 

I mean, this wasn't perfect. But it was funny, and it was a reasonably clever exploration of how we (don't) deal with mental health issues.

Secret of Secrets by Dan Brown

 

Dan Brown is always somewhere between a hate read and a guilty pleasure.

The Irish Goodbye by Heather Aimee O'Neill

 

I'm so sick of 'large sibling group working out their issues in vacation house' or similar.

Hole in the Sky by Daniel Wilson

 

I wanted to like this, and there was initially so much promise, but it just didn't stick the landing.

The Librarians by Sherry Thomas

 

So much fun, and bonus points for being set in Austin.
