None of This Is True Review
Introduction "None of This Is True" is another thrilling and inscrutable book from the queen of psychological suspense, Lisa Jewell. Jewell's novel is a perfect encapsulation of what fans of the anguished tale want to read in the genre. Her book has an astonishing and, at times, ridiculous plot, populated with absurd yet rounded characters who are far from likable. It even abandons the rule of gravity in the over-rolled snowball-like climax of the book and ends with a clever twist.

Bridgerton Season 3 Thoughts
Bridgerton Season 4 Thoughts My initial impressions are that I really liked the first half of the season and the ending. I found myself really enjoying a lot of the side plots. I loved Francesca’s story with John and Violet’s storyline. I also loved how the love between Penelope and Eloise felt tangible even though they were at odds.

The Song of Achilles
Miller puts a romantic, emotional spin on a classic story that is absolutely lovely to read, as well as heartbreaking. Patroclus’ depiction here as Achilles’ mortal best friend turned mortal lover couples very well with the blossoming development of his own individual personhood throughout the story. The way he strove for and reached greatness in his own way was exhilarating to experience as his life became more intertwined with anger, tension, and the terrors of war. He is his own man while also feeling this deep, divine connection and loyalty to Achilles that sort of anchors him until he takes it upon himself to free them both, and in my opinion it’s written so very well. Also, the way Patroclus describes Achilles at several points in the novel is some of the most beautiful prose I’ve read in a while. The man was smitten, ya’ll.
