I finished Young, Fair, and Damned - Catherine Howard, the Fifth Wife of Henry VIII. It was good but a little too dense.
I started The Arrangement by by Sarah Dunn. It's about a couple who decide to have an open marriage for 6 months. It's OK so far.
Silvia, Staz, HBO or Showtime (can't remember) made American Gods into a TV show. It's starts this Sunday. I haven't read the book but have it on my list. It sounds interesting based on your description!

Mellen, I thought this was very much your thing and wondered why you hadn't read it when I went on goodreads

You, Spudd and Bugsy. You'll all love it!

Finished The Arrangement by by Sarah Dunn. It was decent and mindless. You could pretty much predict the entire plot though.

Yeah, American Gods was not for me, as I was 99% sure it wouldn't be. Made it to page 60.
Then I started The Upside of Unrequited, a YA by Becky Albertalli, the same author of Simon vs the Homo Sapiens Agenda, which was cute. I wonder why there are so many gay characters in her books. Just curious. Anyway, this one started out stupendously, then now it's well, less stupendous. We'll see.
I also started Voices of Chernobyl. I bought it months ago, but then it was delivered the day that plane with the Brazilian soccer team crashed, and I certainly was not in the mood for more tragedy, so I left it for later.

Still on the Chevy Stevens novel. Not sure why I'm not reading right now.
I also decided I'm going to read Big Little Lies again. And then watch the series again. It's totally stuck with me.
