  3. La Sombra del Viento

    Carlos Ruiz Zafón

    I embarked on this (silly) goal to read ten Spanish-language books in 2023, but stupidly picked this 555-page monster with plenty of challenging Castilian vocabulary as my first book. Unsurprisingly, my reading speed in Spanish is far slower than English, and I discovered how much of my love of books is due to reading quickly. I kept on pausing this book to read other quick (English language) reads, so it took me about a year and half to finish this. I enjoyed the book, though my Spanish isn’t quite at the level to fully appreciate the quality of the writing.

  7. Materialists

    I keep on going back and forth on whether I liked this movie or not, but ultimately I liked it more than not.

  11. Anora

    I don’t understand how this got so many accolades, especially since the second half of the film goes hard into physical comedy
