Really good book, but perhaps not for me: The West Passage by Jared Pechaček
This was one of those books that I know is really great and I need to recommend because it's not getting enough attention even though it didn't hit quite as hard for me as it did/might for other people.

On going comics/manga I caught up on that continue to be awesome: Monstress (Marjorie M. Liu with Sana Takeda) and Witch Hat Atelier (Kamome Shirahama)
Oh god these are so tonally different but both have amazing art and stories.

Finally finished/caught up with the series: Jenn Lyons's A Chorus of Dragons and The Chronicles of Osreth by Katherine Addison. (Ok, I think there's some short stories I missed by Addison, but close enough.)

Oh Shit I Didn't Know That Existed and I Haven't Had the Chance to Play It: Routine.
I'm not usually a horror person, but I am a sucker for space horror and the aesthetics of this game are so fucking my jam, it reminds me of Moon and Control and I'm really excited to give it a try!!

I Actually Learned How the Weapons Work: Hades II.
I do think Hades II suffers from some sequel-itus, but I really loved how it taught me the combat and the difference between the weapons and boons and the synergy between them in runs. I paid way more attention to that than I did in the first game!

Best Mobile Game (Because I played it on my phone even though it's elsewhere): Coquette Dragoon Volume One.
Still in early access, but a great visual novel! Who doesn't love giant robots and cute girls? If you like Friends at the Table's scifi check this out (probably check the content warnings too)

It Was Popular, but I Got To It Late: Balatro.
I've played enough to be very happy with this game, but like Slay the Spire, I'll be coming back to it to continue to chip away at some of the parts I haven't beat/unlocked yet!

7/10, Game of the Year: Jedi Fallen Order and Survivor.
Sure these games aren't perfect, but they nail the ridiculous melodrama of Star Wars and make me want to go make LJ icons. I love my boy and his ugly ponchos. Also, BD-1 is the best Star Wars droid.

Game of the Year (that didn't come out this year): 1000xResist.
Finally played this and got to read all of the reviews that talk about this game that I had saved away! It's both a great game and there's really interesting critical looks at it that are also well worth reading.

It's Still in Early Access, but Damn It's Good: Fields of Mistria.
I already have uh.... 80+ hours in this game and it's not out yet? This is such a good farming sim, I love the Friday Nights at the Inn plots. The character customization is also great, I actually put together seasonal outfits!

Game of the Year (that actually came out this year): Citizen Sleeper 2.
If you liked Murderbot you need to play this game and its predecessor. Actually, if you like scifi at all you should be playing this. I absolutely love the story, the writing, the characters, the art, the music, the mechanics!
