I've started The Doomsday Book at the time of recording and so far I'm just kind of whelmed. and that book is supposed to be amazing. So, hopefully I'm I'm still very early in The Doomsday Book, but that's by Connie Willis. But, so far I'm not I'm not immediately blown away by it.

While I thought the start of Venetian Betrayal, book number three, was a bit rough, and the series leading up to Venetian Betrayal has just been kind of lackluster, the end of Venetian Betrayal just kind of like got me a bit excited.

Loved

I'm really looking forward to this cuz I loved book 15, which has a major plot point, but we're not going to really touch on that too much other than the fact that it's clear from the cover that Toby's in a wedding dress.

Disliked

Book one is book two where I had the issues, but I've since got married, had kids, and I'm a little bit more mature. And so, the themes that made me DNF, I think are still going to probably bother me, but not as much as they did, and I'll be able to get through them this time.
