Giggling at Anna being carried in the snow. I so need something light and slightly cheesy to read right now. So far, so good!

Are there any others out there who don’t like to leave reviews unless you feel like it was a 5 star read because giving anything less feels too harsh? Because I kind of get confused when someone writes a GLOWING review about how good a book was and that they enjoyed it but then give it 3 stars? I get 3 isn’t necessarily bad but it seems so low to me.
For those of you who never or rarely give 5 stars I’d love to hear what makes a 5 star book for you? what boxes need to be checked for you to leave a 5 star review?

"What's global warming anyway?" Man as much as it's enjoyable fluff for the most part, some of the lines are just dumb. You're a freaking doctor man, I can't tell if that was poorly conveyed sarcasm or her being serious and sincerly hoping it's the former.

(*or any special day where you get gifts!!)

My mom asks for a Christmas list every year of "something you want, something you need, something to wear, and something to read." (So smart right??)

I can't decide what to ask for from the "something to read" category this year.

In the past, I've asked for certain special or collector's editions of books I love, some arty coffee-table-style books, and a few times I've just asked for a novel I knew I wanted to read.

I'm curious, how you would approach it? Anything I haven't thought of?

Does anyone have any good books to recommend reading during a midlife crisis? Reflective books about changing identity or getting comfortable with different life roles? Generally geared to an audience of 40+ years? Fiction or non-fiction.

I wonder if this app has the age range for this type of question, ha.
