Review: A Lonely Girl is a Dangerous Thing
A Lonely Girl is a Dangerous Thing by Jessie TuMy rating: 3 of 5 stars
As amiddleaged asian single woman brought up in a high achieving family, i should like this book. I understand it. I know it happens. But I did not like it. I felt the protagonist too superficial. I get that she is lonely and angry. But what else? I wondered about her sister - the sister is mentioned but not expanded on. I wondered how her wrist held up with the injuries and pain...so many aspects of her just glossed over...compared to other books about lonely women, like Eleanor Oliphant is absolutely fine, or my year of relaxing, I felt this fell off the mark.

Review: Smart Ovens for Lonely People
Smart Ovens for Lonely People by Elizabeth TanMy rating: 0 of 5 stars
The title intrigued me. Can't say that I liked the book much but the writing is fresh and new. It keeps you reading and wonder what's going on. Very contemporary themes - apps and online dating and selfies. Not sure I'd read other things by her but it's very easy to read. The stories are thought provoking about modern life but a little too strange for me.
