Eventually everything connects. ( This is what happens when you don’t plan your writing in advance 🙂

Review: Absolution

Absolution
Absolution by Alice McDermott
My rating: 4 of 5 stars

McDermott is such a gem and I love reading her writing and spending time with her characters. This story was no exception. I loved learning more about how it was for women during Vietnam War (interesting to compare this with the Kristen Hannah book I just read too.) and I loved the themes around friendship, motherhood, family and service. Beautiful novel.

Review: Going Infinite: The Rise and Fall of a New Tycoon

Going Infinite: The Rise and Fall of a New Tycoon
Going Infinite: The Rise and Fall of a New Tycoon by Michael Lewis
My rating: 3 of 5 stars

I think Michael Lewis is a great storyteller. He knows how to make a story interesting, he knows exactly what details to include so you have depth and what to leave out because it’s complex and not relevant. Taking really complicated stories and making them so consumable is absolutely a talent. This book was no exception and very timely with the trial that just happened.
