Somebody, Somewhere was so good! I binged The Beast In Me last week, I couldn’t stop watching! Just read and enjoyed Dominion. Like Family is on my TBR list. What did you think of Atwood’s memoir? Have been curious but haven’t seen too many reviews yet.

I'm sad we won't get more seasons of Sombody, Somewhere!

I really enjoyed Atwood's memoir! It's quite long, 25+ hours on audio, I'm guessing this might be scaring people away from reading it 😅 It seems to me like something that could surely have been streamlined into something shorter, but Atwood is an excellent storyteller (obviously) so I didn't at all mind spending time listening as she recounted various stories from her life. Did you happen to read Barbra Streisand's memoir? Because I felt similarly about both. It's sort of like they've both had these long careers and are great storytellers and when they decided to write a memoir they decided to do it their own way, recounting the stories they wanted to tell, the way they wanted to tell them, meaning not succinctly, but definitely authentically! If you read I highly recommend the audio, just be prepared to settle in for a bit.

Thanks for the reminder to read Dominion. I too read and enjoyed Wreck last month.

Dominion is definitely worth a read! Glad you enjoyed Wreck as well.
