It was a really great story. I was disappointed with the ending, but only because it didn‘t tie everything up perfectly. It‘s a very well-written and likely ending. There were a few characters I was left wondering about.

I'm taking a break from listening to Don Quixote during my commute.. and I started listening to Jaws! 🦈
Thoroughly enjoying it, though I have to remind myself this was written in the 70's because his references to costs and what seemed expensive back then.... man, I WISH. Imagine making 8k a YEAR and still being able to afford a house and support a stay at home mom/wife and child. Yeah... right. Not in this economy!!

My current view in Bergen Norway. So beautiful here but we head out tomorrow. Reading this book that takes place in Copenhagen which was our first stop on our trip…. Love reading about place I know or have been to… anyone else?
Distopic books aren't my type of books.... sorry....

I did not enjoy this book. No character had any redeeming qualities and I was left wondering what the point/purpose was overall. At first I thought Nugent‘s writing of a narcissistic mother and sibling rivalry was on point but it became unbearable as everyone was awful about everything and to each other. It sits in my donation box ready to leave my house.
Told in a series of interviews, this tells the horrific story of what could happen if a bunch of young adults are stranded in an amusement park during a hurricane. It definitely draws inspiration from Lord of the Flies. There are some plot holes and everything goes wrong far too quickly, but overall a solid quick read. 3.5⭐️
Mae is a “black bag” publicist in LA, helping celebrities get out of trouble. She finally runs across a story that makes her question why she does this type of work. This book is fiction but it seems to be ripped right off social media with the Epstein/P Diddy exploitation in the headlines, and how powerful people don‘t seem to ever pay for their sins. ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️
Creepy, disturbing, and unhinged with imagery that will stay with me for a while.. bleh 4/5 I‘ll be binging the rest of show today. Highly recommend check TW before reading if triggered, otherwise go in blind!
