Hello and welcome to my end of the month wrap up! After last months reading slump, I really just had a goal of finishing the books I already started. Well, I did most of that, but not all and added a few more to my pile.
One Flew Over the Cuckoo’s Nest by Ken KeseyMy rating: 3 of 5 stars
This book reminded me quite a bit of the movie Girl, Interrupted. I can see why this book is a classic of sorts, but it was not entirely something I really enjoyed. I think it brings up some good things to think about, like mental health and the horrible treatment that has happened in places that were meant to help.

The Color of Law: A Forgotten History of How Our Government Segregated America by Richard RothsteinMy rating: 4 of 5 stars
While I was aware of some of the things discussed in this book, I have to say there was quite a bit I had no idea about. I felt the author did a great job of sourcing a lot of what was talked about, such as laws, court cases, and policy. It really is a dense read filled with a lot of information that I think should me shared more readily. I feel like this is going to be a book I reread in the future, but also think about quite a bit as well.

Call Me by Your Name by André AcimanMy rating: 4 of 5 stars
I really enjoyed the authors writing style the most about this book, the writing was lyrical and flowed so nicely. I am interested in seeing the movie now that I have read this book, as well as checking out the next book.
