The Haar by David Sodergren

3.00/5⭐️

This one’s okay; its kind of the first horror novel that made me feel like I was reading a Horror Novel, but its a bit inconsistent tonally. The plot is just straightforward with nothing interesting happening. Add it to your list if you really like gore #booksky

Tender is the Flesh by Agustina Bazterrica

2.79/5⭐️

This one’s probably not for me, but I could see how someone might enjoy it. It’s pretty slow for such a short book. The worldbuilding falls short of the concept. The MC isnt really interesting. But damn the ending really packs a punch lol #booksky

The Ministry of Time by Kaliane Bradley

3.86/5⭐️

This has a lot of genres happening so I guess the best way to describe my opinion is that I like it as literary fiction but not as a romance or sci-fi. The characters and prose stand out much more than the plot or world building #booksky

Reclaimed by Seth Haddon

4.07/5⭐️

Almost certainly biased, but this ones my favorite in the series. Every book I read by this author makes me more surprised that hes not more popular in book circles? I absolutely love his writing and romances but I never see anyone talking about him #booksky

The Examined Life by Stephen Grosz

I don’t know what made me decide to pick a completely random book off Libby, but I probably won’t be doing that again. This is supposedly true accounts but all the people and dreams feel like characters and stories from a novel. I’m not a huge fan. #booksky

Everything is Tuberculosis by John Green

I don’t know if this was a good or bad time to read this with the state of the world being as it is, because it made me feel my anger over the pure injustice of… just everything? Really acutely. It was a good experience, and I’m glad i read it. #booksky

The Bible Says So by Dan McClellan

I dont really have a system for rating nonfiction; I’ll just add them. I listened to this audio and enjoyed it from the perspective of a deconstructed exChristian whos still interested in religion in an intellectual way. Some folk could benefit from it #booksky

Reborn by Seth Haddon

3.14/5⭐️

I didn’t like this one as much as the first one but it’s a soulmates romance which is among my least favorite. Even so, this did it pretty well! The writing is really good but the characters weren’t as interesting in this one. I love this author now though #booksky

Sunrise on the Reaping by Suzanne Collins

4.57/5⭐️

I was worried this was gonna be -just- sad, but it was actually really good all around! I liked it much more than the first prequel. It was also sad but there’s more to it than just being depressing. I’d recommend this one to any THG fan. #booksky

Reforged by Seth Haddon

3.93/5⭐️

This has been on my TBR since it came out and I just spontaneously decided to read it for Pride🏳️‍🌈 and this is the definition of a hidden gem to me? I listened to the audiobook and it’s absolute Gold! I can’t believe I’ve never seen anyone talking about it #booksky

Project Hail Mary by Andy Weir

4.79/5⭐️

Quickly added to my list of universal recommendations! The main relationship is so special and the book/writing itself is so funny and engaging; I’m completely charmed. It’s so accessible for the type of scifi that it is too! Love it ♥️ #booksky

The Gate of the Feral Gods by Matt Dinniman

3.14/5⭐️

This series is really hammering it in for me that I shouldn’t be reading anything longer than 4 books. The audiobook makes it worth it though; it’s funny and the characters still have my interest so I’ll stick with it. #booksky

The Devils by Joe Abercrombie

4.93/5⭐️

Everyone read this! I literally debated starting it over immediately after I finished. I just loved it. I think Abercrombie is my favorite writer (though not my favorite author; that’s a more complicated one). I’ll never stop recommending this #booksky

Heavenly Tyrant by Xiran Jay Zhao

1.14/5⭐️

I’m a little nervous to post this one? I haven’t seen many people’s review, so I don’t know if this is a common opinion. This is probably the most disappointing book I’ve ever read? And waited for over two years so excited? I’m sorry, I hated it. #booksky

Paladin’s Faith by T. Kingfisher

3.00/5⭐️

Honestly, I was so ready to be done with this series. I don’t think it was bad, maybe I’m just not into romance… I wish I was, but none of these books really hit for me. I did like this one the most of the 4 but I wish the characters offered more? #booksky

Oathbringer by Brandon Sanderson

4.43/5⭐️

I may have waited too long to review this one after reading but I definitely knew this was the first in the series to not get a 5 from me. This one felt a lot slower and the ending was so different from the others. I still loved it, of course, but🤷🏻‍♂️ #booksky

Emily Wilde’s Compendium of Lost Tales by Heather Fawcett

4.36/5⭐️

This was a fine finale for an enjoyable series! I enjoyed it a lot; the characters are charming, the world is fun to explore. I’d recommend this trilogy to anyone who enjoys a fairytale fantasy #booksky

Edgedancer by Brandon Sanderson

4.21/5⭐️

I think this one is worth reading, but I don’t think it hurts you to skip it either? This is my first novella, and I did like it! I was surprised how much he managed to shove into this little thing tbh lol mini-Sanderslide #booksky

A Drop of Corruption by Robert Jackson Bennett

4.36/5⭐️

This was a really great sequel to a really great book! I’m glad I read it but also filled with an equal amount of regret for reading it as soon as it came out and having to wait for the next one. Fascinating characters and setting #booksky

Emily Wilde’s Map of the Otherlands by Heather Fawcett

4.14/5⭐️

This was a good sequel! I was worried the romance would be stale or drawn out unnecessarily, but it really fit. I was excited to move on to the next book. #booksky

Paladin’s Hope by T. Kingfisher

1.93/5⭐️

This one is definitely the weakest link of the series for me. The pacing was weird, it felt like the elevator episode of the series. The characters are really flat and not very interesting to me? I didn’t care for this one #booksky

I think Mitski’s Class of 2013 hits a little bit harder every year that passes.. there’s got to be a pain threshold eventually, right?

It should really not be this hard to stay caught up on reviewing books as I read them. And yet I’m behind by eight 😶
