What Breaths Through its Butt – Emily Grossman
Oh my gosh. So. The title got me right away - so fun and so zany! And the content is what sold the book for me. I love, love, love animal books and this one was no exception. I think what drew me to it was the formatting. Everyone and their mother has seen the kind of… Continue reading What Breaths Through its Butt – Emily Grossman

The Guest List – Lucy Foley
The long and short of it is that I enjoyed this book immensely. I really enjoyed just discovering what this book was about without any external influence, so I'll keep my review short. It's an atmospheric whodunit with plenty of twists and turns to keep you on your toes. The overall premise is that there's a wedding on… Continue reading The Guest List – Lucy Foley

I'm just overwhelmed by the… Continue reading Anxious People – Fredrik Backman
