Leave the World Behind

I just finished Leave the World Behind by Rumaan Alam. I started this book back in early November as I was starting Jury Duty, but had to take a long break. It took me a bit of time to get back into the book, but once I did, I found I rather enjoyed it. My wife wanted me to read it before we watch the movie adaptation on Netflix, and there’s been frustration at how long it took.

It’s a pretty enjoyable read, and not very long, so one can normally finish pretty quickly if they are so inclined. I’m curious how the movie is different, but I’m sure we’ll watch it shortly and then I’ll know.

This is the first book I finished in 2024, and I look forward to reading more and leaving a little clue here for future me to remember what I thought.
