Such a sharp, smartly written origin story.

(Should I be worried that my morals correspond more closely to Jason's than to Bruce's? Oh well.)
Trin and 55 other people liked Deborah Markus's review of Murder at Mansfield Park:
Murder at Mansfield Park by Lynn Shepherd
"The good news is, if you’re one of the people who've made a principled decision never to read a word written by Lynn Shepherd, you’re not missing a thing. Promise. Word of honor.

The reason you might have sworn off all things Shepherd is that she’s..." Read more of this review »

Time's a Thief: A Novel

A Brideshead Revisited/Franny and Zooey/Bright Lights, Big City mashup. It wasn't bad, but every bit of it felt like something I'd read before.
The 60s by The New Yorker
"Another eclectic and intriguing collection from the New Yorker – this time it’s the 60s in focus, so that means so many iconic names are represented here, from Rachel Carson with Silent Spring to Hannah Arendt with Eichmann in Jerusalem. Brief Enc..." Read more of this review »
Trin and 19 other people liked Lee's review of Bluets:
Bluets by Maggie Nelson
"A numbered meditation on longing, love, obsession, connection at once spiritual, associative, interpersonal, and physical. Superficially about a color. Wondered what she would've written about "Blue Is the Warmest Color," but then again she's give..." Read more of this review »

It's not that it was bad: it's just that I did not connect to it at all. Blue must not be my color.

I liked Heiny's short story collection, Single, Carefree, Mellow, but her debut novel is a cut above. A long-form narrative really gives her the chance to delve deep into her characters, pulling apart their personality quirks over the course of 300 p ...more
