it's quite a meandering book, but I do feel like there is enough action, enough character study, enough going on.

It is horrendous, but if you're able to stomach it, this is a really great book to read in the current times.

I actually thought this was a beautiful book and I listened to about half of it. And oddly, and you can tell me if I'm wrong, just wasn't compelled to keep going with it.

I loved how the themes sort of like slowly crossed over into each other.

It is a fever dream. It's like all these interesting power dynamics and voyerism and sort of weird fairy tale like happenings.

I was very captivated by it. It was done so well.

It felt very personal and warm and exciting and it's about, you know, Jane Austen's life and the different places where she lived.

this was so chaotic. Maybe I should have read the physical instead of listening to the audio book, but I couldn't quite parse what was going on. The style of it was too chaotic.

penance was not for me. It discusses true crime. I got a few hours into it. I just knew that I think the format of it I was not going to enjoy.

it has something in common with Cursed Bread by Sophie Macintosh. But I definitely preferred this

This felt like such a nothing book.

This is one of those books where it did do what it said it was going to, but I just didn't love the execution of it.

I loved the initial setting and the characters and then halfway through the pacing of this book slowed down so much and I feel like it kind of lost itself there.

There was a fisherman's town story that I loved. There was a bit of sci-fi which was interesting. It was just it was like a really interesting mix.

I listened to like an hour of the audiobook and was bored out of my mind.

It's been very enjoyable and I think at this point if I had to judge I think I would continue the book series. And then of course the final verdict of the book, it was really fun, it's great to read on an e-reader.

I was reading Longbourn and really enjoying it. Like I probably read it on the train for about 3 hours. So I'm going to keep going with that.

And this is also about people working in this like really big company. They're all starting their jobs and they seem a bit like meaningless... Read about 30 pages yesterday. I'm definitely getting into more books about sort of weird trippy office type books.

If you want to start with the first one that was written, that is Sabriel. The audiobooks for the original trilogy are read by Tim Curry, and they're so good.

My favourite on this reread has been the prequel that is set, is it hundreds of years before the original series, it is Clariel. It's kind of the origin story of how someone can turn into the villain.

If you have read Through the Woods by Emily Carroll, which is like one of my favourite horror, folk tale retelling graphic novels that I reread every Halloween. This feels like an excellent companion to it.

This is actually the one that feels the most similar to a setting like Six of Crows. It's like this old merchant city and there's lots of corruption.

I didn't read that much of it, to be honest. For this, it was the writing style that absolutely put me off. I could not make it through the sentences.

I think I enjoyed Agnes Grey the most by Anne Brontë. It's quite short, it's a governess novel and it's just about her experience of being a governess and not being treated very well and going through different families.
