99 Days by Katie Cotugno // Big Sipper Rosé
Have you ever listened to a teenager complain about how they did something stupid, & now everyone is treating them badly for it? But then the teenager tells you that they never actually apologized for any of it & then they continue to do terrible things? That’s what this book is like. Except you can’t offer the kid any advice; you just gotta sit there & listen to it for 8 hours...

Eleanor Oliphant is Completely Fine by Gail Honeyman // Magners Irish Cider
Eleanor Oliphant is absolutely NOT completely fine, but we can pretend, right? She is, however, just an unhappy person in need of a good friend. This book was so good that I bought the physical copy to reread it whenever I want to, & trust me when I say this: you're gonna want to. ***I also name dropped Queenie by Candice Carty-Williams in this—another great book who you will love if Eleanor Oliphant sounds interesting to you!
