What did you recently finish reading?

F*ck Your Diet: And Other Things My Thighs Tell Me by Chloé Hilliard
Meh. I was expecting something less steeped in diet culture, TBH.

Andersonville by MacKinlay Kantor
Technically I DNF'd this one, but that counts as finishing, yeah? The only  Pulitzer Prize Winner out of the 60+ I've read that I couldn't finish, which should tell you how much I did not enjoy...

A Gentleman Tutor by Harper Fox
Beautifully written, as are all Fox books, but the plot was a mess.

Priddy's Tale by Harper Fox
Another Fox, but I liked this one a lot more! Hooray mermen! :D

Transcendent Kingdom by Yaa Gyasi
I've had this on hold since it came out and it just came in! I adored this author's debut novel, Homegoing, and I'm really looking forward to reading this one!

Next non-fiction read!

Must Love Christmas by Avery Cockburn
I've been on a massive bad streak with MM romance holiday reads, but I'm hoping this one will break the streak!
