Sarah Alexie seems like kind of an asshole in real life, but I gave his book five stars, also. Agree with everything you've said here, Jonas!

That's disappointing to hear. I'm glad that didn't impact your reading experience. Glad it was a five star read for you.

Thank you, Debbie. I just re-subscribed to Audible. I listened to this one on Audible. Will definitely check out the audio of You Don't Have to Say You Love Me. Thanks for the suggestion!
