Title: Lovely War
Rating: 3/5
Quotes:
- "It was time for James and Hazel to get properly acquainted. Time to see if the magic of music and moonlight and graceful movement were all that they had shared, or if a grimy gray London dawn and a cheap cup of coffee could make them feel the same way."
- "Annihilation has its own je ne sais quoi. We’re all guilty of it. So spare me the sermons."
- "His mother’s letters are full of urgent warning. She grew up in Mississippi. 
She knows about lynching. Aubrey wonders if he’ll die in his country before he 
ever gets the chance to die for his country. Either way, he’d rather not."
- "Whatever boost sixty captured miles might have brought to German morale was 
erased by the chocolate in the BEF’s packs. War is morale. War is supply. War is 
chocolate."
Thoughts:
- Pacing felt awkward
- WW1 history felt accurate
- Didn't care too much for the story of the Gods
Review: A good book with well rounded characters, but the pacing felt super 
awkward. The titles of the chapters showed which Greek God was speaking, but I was more interested in the WW1 tales than their relationships.

Title: Goodbye, Things
Rating: 4/5
Thoughts:
- very cleanly written
- read easily
- author did good research
Review: The books of Marie Kondo have become popular with minimalists. This book 
is an expansion on that philosophy. The idea of decluttering your mind is 
interesting, but I'm not ready to give up everything. Some parts of the book were repetitive, but overall a nice easy read. The book's message is to simplify your life and reduce the amount of things you own.

Title: Deep Work: Rules for Focused Success in a Distracted World
Rating: 5/5
Thoughts:
- Great read, got me to refocus my goals around my schedule.
- Got me to delete a social media I used too much
- I like that Cal Newport is a computer scientist as well
Review: I liked that this book made me reflect on my personal goals and writing 
workflow. I felt like the book was tailored to me. I appreciated Cal Newport's 
background as a computer scientist since he brought solid research into this book. His writing style made this book easy to read and a good pick-up-when-you-can 
book. The book's message is to change your focus to deep work, reducing the amount of times you check social media/email, and manage your distractions
