#68 All That Matters

All That Matters by Jan Goldstein was shallower than I had hoped. I really didn't care so much for the 23 year old suicidal protagonist - I wanted to hear more about Nana's escape from the Nazis. Seems odd to say a book about a woman being saved from herself is shallow but that's how I feel.

#67 Sarah Canary

Sarah Canary by Karen Joy Fowler was not the book I thought it was going to be - not that it was bad. I'm not sure that I can explain it other than to say I wanted it to be different than it was and if I had known I probably wouldn't have read it.
