With WorldCon in Glasgow this year I made an attempt to read more local authors and was treated to many excellent stories - thoughtful, funny, adventurous, imaginative, unsettling - and the TBR is only getting longer! Did you have any reading themes for the year?
Two rows of books lying face-up on a coffee table. On the top row: Cast Long Shadows by Cat Hellisen, the Nova Scotia anthology edited by Neil Williamson and Andrew J. Wilson, Too Hot To Sleep by Elspeth Wilson, The Last To Drown by Lorraine Wilson, Unexploded Remnants by Elaine Gallagher. In the bottom row: Children of Paradise by Camilla Grudova, Glitterati by Oliver K. Langmead, Thief Mage Beggar Mage by Cat Hellisen, Charlie Says by Neil Williamson, Have You Decided on Your Question by Lyndsey Croal, and Gallus - A Glasgow SF Writers' Circle anthology edited by Neil Williamson, E.M. Faulds and Brian Milton.

If nothing else though, these children's reviews might give further insight!
An opened guest book with several entries written by children. A comment on the top right page reads "Philip I did a poo". On the left page there are further comments, some of them a bit blurry and difficult to read. The legible ones say "Very pretty and smart", "pap I did a fart", "it was fun! amazing! by Rhona", "it was Amazing! by Susie". Several smiley emojis are also drawn on the pages.
