The Month of the Novella! April Reading Wrap-up

But this has been really good. It's not my favorite. I can kind of tell that things have been split up a little bit just cuz there are some pacing things that I think were done better in books two and books three.

Let me tell you what, this isn't bad. This is still on my TBR, still on my shelf. In fact, I'm going to try it again next month.

Unfortunately, Child of the Night Guild just didn't quite work for me. It read a little bit on the younger side, and I just overall wasn't invested by about eight chapters in.

This is one of my new favorite books of all time. I consider this pretty much a flawless masterpiece.

It's incredibly well-written, but it just overall like wasn't my speed. I kind of found it incredibly predictable, and it wasn't pulling me in.

It wasn't anything mind-blowing in the vein of O- Ogres or Put Away Childish Things, but it was solid, it was interesting, and overall, I really enjoyed the premise.

Make sure you check out the review of Necromancer Called Gamgyn because it was it was just it was so much fun. I was smiling reading it.

I just wasn't particularly invested in the story at any given time. And after I after I got about halfway through this one, I just still not being invested, decided to move on to something else.

This is really great. It's like a transcribed interview. Like, each chapter is its own separate interview.

Very good. Not as good as Pilgrimage of Swords. The Pilgrimage of Swords was that it?

I tried reading the I tried listening to this on audio a while ago. I bounced off of it and then I kind of picked it up on physical and just sank right into the story and I've been off to the races ever since.

But, yeah, I got about 10% into this one and I was really enjoying it. It just wasn't what I needed in that moment.

I enjoyed The Mist. I didn't love The Mist. I did like the Lovecraftian aspects of it, where you've just got this mist, and you've got these creatures in the fog.

It was good. The premise seemed a bit flawed, but overall, like I thought it was very good.

Like I definitely enjoyed Wolf's Call more.

Now, this one had two unlikable protagonists. I know they're not meant to be likable, but in the moment, I wanted something likable.

It was very, very good to read. I really, really enjoyed this.

Your Blood and Bones by Jay Patricia Anderson is another novella. This one was incredibly good.
