The Glass Castle

The way she talked about her father's bi-polar, from his sweet and loving side to his drunk, abusive side was very powerful. I can't imagine going throguh that experience.

It's a great book but the sketches make it a little harder to see. But overall it's an amazing book.

I appreciated that the TV series didn't follow the book because I appreciated the character development. Aunt Lydia became a sympathetic villain.

Verity

This was very different from the steamy romances that Hoover is known for. This was a really good suspense/thriller story. The ending left me wondering what was true and what were lies. Really good read for anyone who likes tension and a twist.

White Fragility

I listened to the audiobook of this. I found it very informative. I know some people are annoyed by some of the things Diangelo says, but she makes a lot of fair points and references a lot of research, as well as combines it with some of her personal experiences. One of the takeaways I have is that you can't break it down to just good and bad. The racist = bad and not racist = good. We can't escape racism because it's embedded in our societal norms. Our laws and rules. All we can do is learn and be better. No one is exempt from racism. Even those who study equity and work to be antiracist sometimes slip up. We (white people, mostly) make inappropriate comments or don't realize that certain things we say or do harm other people. No matter how hard we try to be "good" and not racist, we can't escape the racist ways of this country. All we can do is continue to learn and grow.

Call Of The Wild

The entire book all I wanted to do was make Buck my dog and spoil him like crazy. The beatings by Man and dog fights were a lot to read, but I'm glad he found John, even for a little while.
