*not saying JP is bad or doesn't have her place, but in the light of the last two books Mum gave me, I don't take her endorsement as a good sign.

Did I give you Hamnet? I 'think' I got rid of it. High expectations but just couldn't get going with it.

I am closing in on the final stages of APOGS, and very glad of it. It’s good but exhaustive and exhausting. After this I’m going to read lots of very short books.

I was underwhelmed by Hamnet. Wanted to love it but it didn't work for me.

Intrigued by a 4th part of Southern Reach as I thought the story had finished in the 3rd book. Didn't enjoy the 2nd and 3rd as much as Annihilation but I'll probably give it go.

I'm one of the few that really enjoyed Hamnet, I think :-)
