The Art of Us by Julie Wright

I enjoyed reading this YA novel. I don’t read much YA anymore but this one was lovely. Real issues, relatively realistic dialogue.

Review: We Are Too Many: A Memoir

We Are Too Many: A Memoir
We Are Too Many: A Memoir by Hannah Pittard
My rating: 4 of 5 stars

I read this book to see if I liked Pittard’s writing and wanted to read another book by her. I also thought, of course, that the story was crazy and wanted to know more. It’s interesting that all 4 of them are writers and both of them wrote a book about it. Her writing is sharp and stays with you.

Review: Engineering Management for the Rest of Us

Engineering Management for the Rest of Us
Engineering Management for the Rest of Us by Sarah Drasner
My rating: 5 of 5 stars

Regardless of whether you’re an engineering manager, or any kind of manager (in our outside of tech) you will find this book to be valuable. It’s grounded in knowing who you are, caring about your team and creating a meaningful dynamic. There are so many small and big things you can take away from this book if you’re a first time manager or a really seasoned one. Highly recommended.

Review: An Eye for an Eye

An Eye for an Eye
An Eye for an Eye by Carol Wyer
My rating: 3 of 5 stars

I really liked this story but I listened on audio and, for me, the narration was terrible. It was flat, british accent that made it super hard for me to follow or care for some reason. I did love how the story all came together in the end.

Review: Breakfast at Tiffany’s: A Short Novel and Three Stories

Breakfast at Tiffany's: A Short Novel and Three Stories
Breakfast at Tiffany’s: A Short Novel and Three Stories by Truman Capote
My rating: 4 of 5 stars

It’s really interesting how short and different the book is compared to the movie. The book is more like a character study. Shows you how much a movie can diverge. And sometimes the movie is so much more popular.

What Does It Feel Like?
What Does It Feel Like? by Sophie Kinsella
My rating: 4 of 5 stars

i loved reading about this and I feel incredibly sorry for Kinsella. I really hope she is the major major exception so she can write another story one day about how she completely beat this.

Meditations for Mortals: Four Weeks to Embrace Your Limitations and Make Time for What Counts
Meditations for Mortals: Four Weeks to Embrace Your Limitations and Make Time for What Counts by Oliver Burkeman
My rating: 5 of 5 stars

Burkeman does it best. His books are changing the way I think, the way I feel and the way I live. What more could you possibly want from a book?
