The Starless Sea by Erin Morgenstern
Did not finish book. Stopped at 24%.

The story was lyrical, fragmented and mysterious - I was looking for a more straightforward plot, and I might pick this one up again when I want to puzzle out the whimsical prose that this novel is full of.

Heat Wave by TJ Klune
Did not finish book. Stopped at 11%.

I didn’t like the direction the story line took, and I felt like the main plot wasn’t compelling anymore and was too drawn out.
