Finishing my reading round up from last year.

Stranger: Not for me. Minot is a beautiful writer but I could not understand the main character’s obsession with the love interest. Shark Heart: Weird little book, not sure what to make of it. It is science fiction but also a love story. Funny Story: Emily Henry is so good at the well written, smart rom com. Liked it a lot for what it is. Tell Me Everything: Strout’s two famous heroines come together in a compelling, lovely story. Age Dis-Gracefully: Funny and charming. Cautious Travellers: Really liked it. Reminded me of Piransi. Fantasy, beautiful writing, and suspenseful. Theo: Chose it mainly because it is my son’s name. It was fine. I thought it was trying to hard to be good literature, and found it predictable and overly sentimental. Creation Lake: Undoubtably literature with a capital L, and excellent writing. I just didn’t like it.
