Started this #BlameItOnLitsy read last night
I enjoyed reading this novel. The characters were diverse and interesting. My heart broke when I read descriptions of the death of two people. It was a difficult summer for Cork and his friends. I enjoyed the storytelling ability of the author. 4.5/5
Good morning! ⛅️
Very much looking forward to this!
While I liked this book, I think it‘s a bit overhyped. It‘s slow in some places, and, in others, I was either bored or didn‘t care about the situation. Other situations were very predictable. Overall, though, Sam‘s journey to accept himself and learn more about faith was a good story.
I‘m posting one book a day from my massive collection. No description, no reason for why I want to read it (some I‘ve had so long I don‘t even remember why!). Feel free to join in!

Amor Towles became one of my favorite authors with "A Gentleman in Moscow" so I knew that this book would capture my heart in the same way. The strength of Towles writing is simply the power of character. He creates characters that you feel like you have known your entire life, filled with heart, depth, emotion and flaws that very few writers today can create this well. The Lincoln Highway is a love letter to youth and the joys of adventure.
We were forced to read this in high school, I found this book to be really depressing and overrated. Holden is hard to like because he hates everything and everyone, and he screws his life up one mistake after another, but didn‘t feel sorry for him. I read this book for school and got rid of it. It doesn‘t deserve to be a classic in my eyes.
A book I love so much, I will never, ever see the movie. I own a hardcover, gorgeous old paperback, and ebook. Back before it was reprinted and digitized I had a second emergency backup hardcover.
