My July Reads: 12 Books, Indie Horror & What I Really Thought!

And this wasn't particularly bad. It's just it's not my thing.

However, Black River Orchard I was a book that I just loved. I think about it constantly

Winnick's writing is compelling and it's just really good. But again, this is also a very abrasive story.

you can tell it's 70 years old, but at the same time, it's still really well done and it holds up.

It's an interesting world and I like the magic system overall. Like it's a solid urban fantasy.

And the day it arrived I literally unwrapped it, looked at it and went reading this now. I'm going to read it now and then I read it in about an hour and I loved everything about the experience.

And I found this intriguing. The premises of the next two books kind of intrigue me.

It's not my favorite Gimmel. This is a prequel to Dana and I think this is a prequel to Morning Star as well.

And I would say 70% of that book I found really enjoyable. But the last 30% I just didn't like the protagonist at all.

And I just liked the story, but I didn't love it.

I am loving the story and it's great to see the evolution of the party. specifically with Jerel.

I just don't think Charles Bowmont is for me.

Really good. I would call this a top half Stephen King book.

my review is mainly this didn't live up to the hype, but it was still a really good book.
