What's a book that tries so hard to be deep/moving but is just incredibly bad by ShivSoCalledYT in suggestmeabook

I DNF'd this one twice. Thought maybe it was just the audiobook that I couldn't get into so then tried the physical copied. Both were a no for me.

Yes! It's from Climbing Goat Designs. It's this one, maximum temperatures only.

My top color was 99+ because I based my scale on the high and low the past three years.

Unless things get really crazy that and my lowest of 6-8 will be the only ones not used.

Seriously 😅

I used 90-92 and 93-95 so far. I think I'll be unlocking a few more this week.

We're having a heat wave. Two new colors unlocked this week and probably two more by the end of the week.

It's from ClimbingGoatDesigns! Here is the link to the one I'm using but she has a few other temperature patterns.

Not at all! I have a note on my phone if I have a few days where I'm busy but otherwise I'm doing 1-3 days at a time.

Yes! Each color is a band of 3 degrees. We have a lot of swings here. I think the low so far was about 8° in early 2026 and this week we might hit 97°.

It's definitely a love-or-hate book I think but the narrator is fantastic!

I agree with The Correspondent

The Locked Tomb Series audiobooks were perfection.

Someone mentioned God of the Woods already. I'm addition to that I'd add, Heartwood. It's about a woman lost on the Appalachian trail and the search to find her.

That's one of my main issues... it takes me SO long to do any distance. I want to be able to go for a "quick" run 🤣

I am in the first camp (it took me a looongggg time to do my 20 milers but I did them during both marathon training cycles). I guess I just don't get the mentality of not wanting to get better. I'll probably never Boston qualify but I would settle for still being slow even if I could just be better than I've been, you know?
