Was answering some random bookstoreβs βWhat are you reading this weekend?β but my reply disappeared when I was distracted. Soβ¦
Iβm finishing The Nickel Boys before I see the movie Monday, and reading an ARC of The Californians by Brian Castleberry.
What are YOU reading this weekend?
Oh! I disagree so hard. I love Less and was pleased they gave it to a comic novel.
