A Farewell to Arms by Ernest Hemingway

It's just shocking how good Hemingway writes. A novel set in World War 1 still feels fresh today. I love every second of reading this book.

When Life Gives You Lululemons by Lauren Weisberger

This book is funny and an easy read. I read it on a plane ride back from Paris and it was the perfect book to pass the time. The characters, while maybe not exactly relatable are fun. The story flows quickly but does have some unexpected twists which keep it interesting.

Rating: 5 stars

The Old Man and the Sea by Ernest Hemingway

I’ve been on a Hemingway kick. This short book of only 94 pages is one of his final pieces. The story follows the 3 day journey of man trying to make the catch of his life. It was compelling and quick read and obviously symbolism for Hemingway’s life.
