*** 3 stars
Not as strong, I think, as The Good Girl but it was pretty good. It dragged a little bit for me and I didn't really connect with very many of the characters. A good enough diversion but not a great read.

Scrum: The Art of Doing Twice the Work in Half the Time by Jeff Sutherland
**** 4 stars
Reading this book for work (it was actually my suggestion!). First saw it on Book Riot as a "best book I read this month" title. It was actually quite good and engaging (for a work book!) The author was perhaps a bit too impressed with himself and the methodology but it was still a thought-provoking read. He did really lose me at the end when he suggests that Scrum can solve world hungry and other macro-issues (literally). But I did get a lot of useful understanding from the book.
