This is a book of nonfiction- not my normal fare but interesting nonetheless. The author has several disorders that impact her well-being, but she wants to live her life furiously happy and this book is a collection of her essays on her pursuit of living furiously happily.
97. Bird Box by Josh Malerman
This book was gripping! I really devoured it! It's a thriller, though I saw it listed as horror somewhere. I really was taken in by the story. I couldn't help but wonder how one could handle this new world... And I keep thinking that we have practically no canned food and what a problem that would be...
98. The Chaos of Stars by Kiersten White
This is a young adult novel about a teen grappling with a life with Egyptian Gods for parents. I read a lot of criticism for this book online, and I would say she's an unhappy teen who is having difficulty dealing with a situation. Perhaps you don't want to spend time with a narrator like that, but I don't think the character was annoying, just struggling.
99. Speak by Louisa Hall
I'm not sure what to say about this book. I'm really glad I read it. It had a lot of really interesting motifs. It doesn't really answer any questions, and I can tell you what I read, but I'm not sure I can tell you what the book was about. The best thing I can tell you is this book was written in response to an article asking if machines could think, would we know.
100. The Long Way to a Small Angry Planet by Becky Chambers
This book was described as a comedic space opera. I did not agree. I did find it an enjoyable read, but a slow one. This one a world building book, a journey book, which means you need to sit with the characters and the world.
