It’s been a grind but he’s aged well. Some might say perfect.

Bastard Out of Carolina is similar.
Anytime I need a palate cleanser, I'll read something uplifting like Anne of Green Gables.

Quite similar and brings up similar feelings.

I listened to the audiobook which is narrated by the author and hearing her voice took it even a step higher for me. One of my favorite books of all time

Reply to comment by AggressiveBowl in Why are Colleen Hoover books so divisive? by sunnywatermelon18
She’s so far from meh, in my opinion. Kids who write fanfic on the internet have better writing skills.

Reply to comment by rowan_sjet in What’s the longest wait you’ve seen for chekhov's gun to be used? by I_Am_Slightly_Evil
Yes sorry your right. I forgot that. It's been a while since I read them and the show had a habit of blending multiple characters into one e.g Sansa/Jeyne. It's quite possible that Coldhands isn't Benjen.
My mistake.

I guess we're all a collection of other peoples opinions.

Honestly don't remember the actual foods - apart from when his fiance puts sushi on a plate to spell out his friend's initials - so they could have been made up. There's also a point where he becomes frustrated with it all and just says it's overpriced with almost nothing on the plate. :-)
But what was it? The topics on The Patty Winters Show become increasingly crazy ... Not even sure whether I picked them up when I read the book, but someone listed them here once.

They are actual reviews. Most from rolling stone.

Reply to comment by History_fangirl in 1st case by James Patterson are all his books like this? by History_fangirl
Man, Patterson must have fallen off a cliff.
Coben’s Myron series are very superficial easy reads. Fun, but very little depth to them.

Yeah, my therapist has me reading this. Rather triggering for me but kind of the purpose.

Oh, about ten years or so for many of the ones started in the Kingkiller Chronicles. Still waiting, to be clear.

The first and LAST book I was allowed to buy at the coveted, mythical annual school book fair! No ‘sad face’ ‘just buying a bookmark’ that year lol I HAD to have this book. The cover art alone sold me despite the adage of never judging by a cover

Also: There are a lot of actual wrong stuff in the music parts.
