Finished: Stay True by Hua Hsu. Rating 3* this memoir of youth, college, and grad school riven by tragedy is well-written, but oddly slow and I never really cared about what would happen next. Good writing though and interesting POV. app.thestorygraph.com/books/9946c8...

Finished: The Year of Less by Cait Flanders. 2* This could be my fault, but expected more of a how-to book than a memoir involving a lot of things I didn’t really care about. I could have just listened to the 10 minute how-to guide at the end of the book. app.thestorygraph.com/books/fe3b83...

Read: The Art of Small Talk by Casey Wilson and Jessica St. Clair. Review 4* First, I love these comedians, being a huge stan of Happy Endings and Playing House. The book is fun and funny, but also gets deep with small talk and has a ton of useful information. app.thestorygraph.com/books/ccdecc...
