19/52. David Grann - The Wager. Meticulously researched though somewhat at the expense of narrative momentum, felt like it wasn’t sure if it wanted to be a harrowing survival epic or a dense courtroom procedural.

18/52. Émile Zola - The Earth. Unrelenting in its visceral bleakness, I found a lot of it bogged down by confusing narrative shifts, excessive backstories, and heavy-handed political tangents that constantly disrupt the story's flow.
