Experimenting with moving my "want to read" list here.

With luck, this will encourage me to read more regularly - to balance the ambitious addition of books to said reading list against my recent reading habits...

Hanna Bervoets: We Had To Remove This Post (Hardcover, 2022, Harper)

WHAT IS “NORMAL”?

WHAT IS “RIGHT”?

AND WHO GETS TO DECIDE?

To be a content …

Have put this one down after a few chapters. I don't remember why I added it to my reading list, but it's too grim for me.

I think I might have been hoping for something a bit more satirical or surreal, perhaps I saw it recommended in connection to Ling Ma's novel Severance (which I really appreciated).

Of course it's unfair to complain that this book isn't like a different book. The writing seems good and the subject is very relevant, but it's pretty clear where the story is headed and it's both too real and too grim for me at the moment.
