Hmm this sounds interesting aside from the interjections 🤔 Love that you're reading the Booker longlist for those of us who don't have that kind of discipline! haha
i would be interested to hear your thoughts but if i'm to be honest fraser i dont think you'll love it! are you reading any other books from the longlist?
@@kiranreader I think I’ll have to be in a specific mood for it but we’ll see. I don’t think so. I have so many books so it’s been a read what I have kind of a year after Feb
thank you for this review! i probably won't read this after hearing your thoughts which i feel would probably align well with mine. maybe if it happens to get shortlisted i'll consider it though. i look forward to what you think about other books on the longlist
booker szn!! i hope the longlist is only up from here for you!! it sounds like the potential was missed with this one, and instead it was mostly just "women be shopping" ?? 💀
Great video! Very concise and informative. I wonder if maybe the monotony of the book was meant to further emphasize the monotony of that kind of work. But as someone who works retail, I think I'll skip this one. I like books set in stores but this just doesn't seem lively enough for me.
that's a great thought!! and i think you're making the right call, there was very little excitement about this book even though we were in the retail space
