2022.Book28 - The Misanthrope (Moliere)

 Kind of not that great, maybe better live?

2022.Book27 - A Time for Mercy (Grisham)

 Solid entertainment

2022.Book26 - The Beast (Martinez)

 Very good description of migrants through Mexico

2022.Book25 - Deacon King Kong (McBride)

 Excellent. Very entertaining.

2022.Book24 - Real Tigers (Herron)

 Very good. Lots of action.

2022.Book23 - The Sentence (Erdrich)

 Not very good, maybe for political reasons? Ghost arc was unoriginal -- too "Get Out". Book store characters fairly interchangeable, maybe because they were based on life?

There's so much room for an interesting investigation of identity formation - especially voluntary, conscious identity choice. And the political implications of partially-voluntary ethnic identities! Discourse privileges the involuntary status.

The current-events plots were inessential, as was the goofy loup-garou thing.
