@bella-lun  I read Lincoln in the Bardo and thought it was THE worst book I ever read.  It has such glowing reviews.  I absolutely hated the style.  I admit I did more skimming than reading.  Did not care about any of the characters, even Lincoln, sadly.  It must have been too high brow for me, ha ha.

 

I'm about 3/4 through Behold The Dreamers (Imbolo Mbue) and thought it was getting kind of boring, but it just took an unexpected twist so Im back to enjoying it again.  At least I'm curious to know how it ends. 


 

hi @smoky22 - please don't give up on Behold the Dreamers. Trust me, you will not be sorry. I think it's one of my favorite books I've read this year. Very beautifully written and a great story!
