The main character was too full of herself. The Nickel Boys by Colson Whitehead was much better.

On Wednesday I started Sacrament by Susan Straight. I almost gave it up the first chapter in, which I never do, not because it was bad, but the political news that day was so depressing. The next day I decided to give it another go. So glad I did. It’s a beautifully written book about nurses during Covid isolating in campers to protect their families and loved ones while they work.

Have a great week dear readers!
