VIGIL explores whether mulish greed deserves comfort in the end. Its attempts at humor nearly lost me, but I was won over by the fiercely human evaluation of life in the face of death. It was tender, sad, and anti late stage capitalism. Always a plus!

SLEWFOOT is dark & captivating. Dread of the unknown shifted to the horror of human nature when monsters were made from ideals. Abitha's strong will & tenacity was easy to cheer on in a community of hypocrisy. Crisp writing & high stakes made a satisfying ending.

Sorcery of Thorns introduced its fantasy world seamlessly, before pulling the reader along a bumpy plotline. While well written, poor character choices & clunky story transitions distracted me. The romance B-plot was sudden & unearned. Incredible concept with mediocre execution.

Escapism feels like a threat to freedom right now. It's made it hard for me to read with all the political madness about. I could use a good book to negate the emotional burnout though.

I'm sick of female characters in fiction using a masculine standard when portraying strength. Women's strength does not need to be muscles and snark. We can be soft, calculating, protective, observant, and so many more things that should be celebrated.

Me - "Plot idea: an appointed assassin handles criminals based on his own cultural justice standards."
Husband - "Hm... Have you ever read Jade City?"
"No. My idea would be set in a metropolis with rival gangs, and there'd be fantasy elements with magic!"
"You should read Jade City..."

Our Divine Mischief was about dashed hopes leading to unexpected blessings. The Irish folklore gave the story a charming, earthy feel. The plot took an unusual but satisfying turn at the midpoint. It was adventurous & tender with the right amount of whimsy.
