I too would like a French Toast train carriage on my honeymoon.

Excellent stuff. The audiobook was very well done, but it did leave me with the urge to re-read a physical copy. Lots to unpack.

This didn't hold my attention. It had crafty interesting vocabulary but didn't really have a backbone. What is the point of this? I don't think the author has anything real to say.

Absolutely bonkers. Not unenjoyable to read, but cannot explain a single thing that happened.
