Now Lila Knows was very captivating. The writing style was beautiful and the overall story was interesting. This book certainly keeps you hooked.

4.5 rounded up. I loved this mature exploration of a marriage at a cross-roads. The additional elements of an immigrant story and some academic politics put it right in my reading wheelhouse. Will definitely read more by this author. Note: The author narrates the audio version and it is lovely.

I requested this because the themes of racism and social justice sounded intriguing, however I found the story lacked nuance and subtlety. I felt as though I were being hit in the head with the moral lessons and wasn't up for a concussion.

I feel like this book was extremly slow pace until the last 10 or so chapters. It was not a bad book but definantly more dificult to stay interested in. I did like the ending though.
