in june i read:
how lucky, by will leitch (this was a book of the month club pick and i really liked it - the story of a disabled man who witnesses a crime and then works to solve it. sweet, great plot, great voice for the narrator, loved the character development, and really appreciated learning more about this particular kind of disability. i'd highly recommend it!)
the one, by john marrs (you can go right ahead and skip this one or read it only if you are literally on a beach in the sun. it's fine and i definitely finished it and all, but not super memorable - the premise is a world where the "love" gene has been found in our DNA and people can take a DNA test to find the other person in the world who is their perfect match.)
broken horses, by brandi carlile (i listened to this audiobook of my favorite artist and it was really interesting and better written than i had feared it might be. the audiobook version includes a ton of recordings of brandi singing songs after explaining the story of how they were written. listen to the audiobook! read by the author! if you're a fan, definitely read this.)
the last policeman, by ben h. winters (another book you can go ahead and skip though i didn't totally dislike it...the story of a policeman trying to solve a homicide as the earth gets closer to the date much of humanity will be destroyed by an asteroid. didn't hate it, didn't love it. premise is almost better than the book...is that too harsh?)
