Completely bonkers reflection on obsession and escapism. The main character’s narration was well used throughout and her punishing thoughts about connection with others and becoming a recluse were intriguing. The MC is both extremely in tune with her mind and inner self at times, but missed clear signs at other times, which instead of seeming paradoxical actually rang pretty true to me. The use of Threes Company was fun and even though I have absolutely no knowledge of the show the descriptions we vivid enough to where I had felt like I had seen the show a million times. ]]> Review8897990052 Tue, 01 Sep 2026 14:19:50 -0700 <![CDATA[CJ added 'In the Best Families']]> https://www.goodreads.com/review/show/8897990052 In the Best Families by Rex Stout CJ gave 4 stars to In the Best Families (Nero Wolfe, #17) by Rex Stout
As this one serves as a closing to some overarching plots, the mystery is not focused on too much. But in general the plot points and character beats related to Wolfe and Archie are done extremely well. I didn’t realize how invested I had become in these characters, but the aftermath of the murder and the fallout of the Wolfe Agency were all pretty powerful, even though you know everything will go back to normal at the end of the novel. ]]> ReadStatus11334617534 Mon, 31 Aug 2026 18:14:12 -0700 <![CDATA[CJ is currently reading 'The Premonition']]> https://www.goodreads.com/review/show/8908325702 The Premonition by Banana Yoshimoto CJ is currently reading The Premonition by Banana Yoshimoto
