Hello, Dissolute Readers (thanks for the name for the 1st book, @kwmg40 🤩)!

I have a schedule for all of us! It can easily be changed, too, if we need to. Discussions twice for each book (because they are quite detailed), and thrice for the last #chunkster!

1st discussion: 6/30/24 over the 1st half of DISSOLUTION. Can't wait!

curiouserandcurioser @dabbe thank you so much!:) 5d
LiseWorks Well just found out that I have to wait 18 weeks in order to get the 1st book. I should have put a hold earlier. 🙄 Hoping for a miracle that people skip the hold lol 5d

bthegood @LiseWorks The holds for ebooks at my library were long waits but the physical copy I was able to pick up today. I'll see if that holds true for the rest of the series, especially since the tv series begins soon🙂 (edited) 5d
LiseWorks @bthegood There's a TV series. Where will this be playing? I decided to get it on Kindle. I never buy books, but the series sounds good. And I like to not rush reading long books. It's all good. 4d
bthegood @LiseWorks glad you were able to get it - and I believe it is on Hulu - I think it began the first of May - 🙂 (edited) 4d
dabbe @LiseWorks Yay! 🤩🤩🤩 4d
dabbe @bthegood I think I'm going to have to get Hulu now! 😂 4d

Greg Iles was recommended to me ages ago and I‘ve had this book in my shelf for years… finally got to in and I‘m a little disappointed I put it off for so long!

It‘s quite the #chunkster but I flew through it. A page-turner for sure. Looking forward to the next (and to go back to the prequel trilogy)

TrishB I‘ve enjoyed all his books so far. 3w
Bookish.SAM I bet @TrishB !! I think I will too 😊 wish I‘d gotten to them sooner! 3w

⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ Really interesting look at the politics and sociology of the Nixon era. In previous biographies and Watergate books I‘ve read there‘s some sympathy for him as an awkward outsider. Not here. Perlstein goes all in on the vicious tactics he used to get and keep political power (like prolonging the Vietnam war to help his election 🙃). Looking forward to more Perlstein, but this was a #chunkster at 881 pgs, so maybe after a break…

When you work at the polls for your state‘s primary elections and the candidates for both parties are already decided, you‘d better bring a large book. And a fully charged e-reader that‘s loaded with more. Yawn. 🥱

thewallflower0707 Hold on tight, you‘re doing important work 🙌 2mo
JamieArc Sounds like good #chunkster reading time! 2mo

Whilst this is a genuine #chunkster of a read...it's also very detailed read. It almost reads as a work of fiction...although there are brief moments of dry information (as a lover of historical nonfiction this didn't bother me in the slightest) but some readers may find it a little tedious. #bookspin @hearomaofbooks

Kristy_K Great review! I‘m hoping to get to this one later this year. The page count is definitely a little daunting. 2mo
