A Visit From the Goon Squad, by Jennifer Egan: I liked the conceit more than the actual book, though I did enjoy it well enough.

American Girls: Social Media and the Secret Lives of Teenagers, by Nancy Jo Sales: I read this mostly on an airplane, and it was so depressing I started sobbing. Granted, I also thought I might have appendicitis and was afraid my appendix was going to burst somewhere over Nebraska.

Jungle of Stone, by William Carlsen: Oh man, this was a SLOG. I think I started it in the middle of 2016.

Between the World and Me, by Ta-Nehisi Coates: Required reading.

American Housewife, by Helen Ellis: This is the most delightful, and Helen Ellis is in my top five favorite people I’ve never met. She has a cat named BIG BOY.

The Grownup, by Gillian Flynn (Kindle single)

That Darkness, by Lisa Black

Those Who Leave and Those Who Stay, by Elena Ferrante: I think The Story of a New Name is still my favorite, but that might change on reread…

Upright Beasts, by Lincoln Michel: My former classmate–these are bizarre and captivating.

Killers of the Flower Moon, by David Grann: Recommended by my dad, and fully made up for his previous recommendation (Jungle of Stone) 🙂
