Has anyone read 'An Untamed State' by Roxanne Gay? I started it last night. It's apparently amazing, but pretty rough. So far it's both of those.

I finished Harry Potter and the Sorcerer's Stone over the weekend, as well as An Untamed State.
Wow, I just don't know what to say about An Untamed Stated. The brutality in the book was not something I was prepared for, but there was so much beauty in the story by the end. it's the type of book I both want to and don't want to recommend to people because it is so graphic.
I started 'Rebecca' this weekend as well.Wife, support system, and partner-in-crime to PGY-3 (IM) and spoiler of our 11 y/o yellow lab

Rebecca! The classic? If so, I love that one. So gothic.
After plowing through all the Michael Connelly and Louis Penny mysteries this summer, I read Mr. Mercedes by Stephen King and decided that it for me with dead bodies and psychos for awhile. I love 'em, but you know... enough is enough.
I started The Magicians by Lev Grossman. Just as the bookflap says -- it IS actually "a grown up Harry Potter" so far.Angie

I was taught that Manderley (the house) was the main character. It certainly is treated like one in parts.Angie

My MIL gave me Your best life now 90 devotions by Joel Osteen. I've done 3 days so far. Enjoying the optimism it's helping me maintain! My sister gave me The life changing magic of tidying up, which I'm starting today.

House of God is seriously old. It was on my parents bookshelf when I was a little kid. My mom must have read it when my dad was an intern...
And, I'm OLD!!
