It was decent. I honestly learned a few things but found it very dry. As a professional planner I truly appreciate the thoughtfulness that goes into a gathering, but also think some gatherings don't need to be overthought. Basically, gathering should go well if you're a great human who actually cares about people...
It did feel overwritten, very not an exciting read despite this being my job, but I finished it nonetheless!
I love James McBride's writing style. Every word is intentional and although not that easy to skim, it really forces you to slow down and take in every word. He's gifted in how he makes such FUN, memorable, and quirky characters. This was a unique read that I found delightful, especially the ant subplot.
Oh my, that was such a wonderful and emotional journey! I loved this series and inhaled every book, haha!!
This book is overhyped and I hated that there were no quotation marks. It was the same thing over and over again. Honestly couldn't wait to skim through this one.
