when I read a court of mist in fury it was just a really good time I read it at the right time I think if I reread it now I probably would completely ruin it for myself and kind of probably hate it but at the time that I read it was everything that I needed and it was just perfect timing

Loved

I think the writing cell is what really stood out for me from this book and I'm very excited to get into the second one when the Owls roll on because the writing is so short and to the point and I just really appreciate it I flew through that book it was just really good time

Liked

if you have enjoyed the darkest shade of magic which is all about the secret thor's which you would think I would maybe pair with the star let's see because they have secret doors in this world we haven't Terry who can create doors and travel between different type of London's but it's also a book about heroism and sacrifice

Loved

dark matter I always recommend this because I thought it was really good I know there's a lot of processes not over the main character being very basing it's just a basic white man which is absolutely true but the story is not character based so I could not care less

Loved

you might really enjoy Eliza and her monsters because this also focuses a lot on a person who runs a very famous online platform this time it is about comics which is our main character actually she meets her interest and he seems to be very into the comic without knowing that she is running it

Disliked

similarly if you like the Ellis in Wonderland you like every heart a doorway because this one is basically about it's kind of like a murder mystery of kids that come back from these places like Wonderland these teenagers come back from places like Wonderland and Narnia and things like that but kind of bit more gory and not as fun for the most part

Loved

heartless is by Marissa Meyer and heartless is a retelling of the Queen of Hearts and how she got so cold but we start with this sweetheart Catherine who all she wants to do is just bake

Loved

if you enjoyed Illumina which is basically a very interesting design of a book it's a logs and security footage and I monologues and it's told very interestingly it's basically a collection of files and you have to figure out what happened to this crew in space

Liked

if you like the never Knight Chronicles by jay kristoff which is basically this assassin training badass main character a lot of killings involve type of vibe you will also love read sister but actually this is one of the ones that seems to go only one way

Loved

we have one that is definitely way more PG I suppose and no one's called off to be a wizard and it's basically about this guy that finds a code of time-travel and travels back in time and because of all his knowledge technology knowledge he is perceived as a wizard it's very kind of light-hearted and it's very fun

Loved

if you have read radio silence by Alice Osmond which is a story that focuses a lot on university and expectations and family and all sorts of dynamics and thinking for yourself but also focuses on this online podcast that is very famous and main character is very big fan of

Liked

I am this much in resistor which is scary because I need to be finished like ASAP with it so far I can neither confirm or deny because I did enjoy never Knight but the writing style is pretty jarring I find this one much easier to read

Liked

six of crows is a story about all of these outcasts of society coming together to perform a hyacinth and high-schools terribly wrong but it's very character-driven but also like there's a lot of action as well

Liked

if you have enjoyed skyward by Brandon Sanderson which is about this girl whose father has been named as a traitor and she wants to prove everyone wrong and get herself into a piloting Academy and she just uncovers a lot of stuff that's going on

Loved

it's cruel Prince by Holly black and this is a story about two girls that I he came from there muggle homes and thrown into this actually three so I keep forgetting the older one and I've thrown into the Fae world which is very cool and very backwards

Loved

final Empire is all about this world where the actual political tyranny is awful and there's a whole cast of people just being treated horribly basically in short it's slavery and we have this super talented but also kind of funky characters coming together to try and overturn that

Loved

I actually read it and I actually really liked it which I wasn't kind of expecting but the rise of Kyoshi is a prequel to the TV show and it follows avatar kyoshi who can bend all of the elements basically but she also struggles

Disliked

the starless e follows this guy that finds a book in a library that has an chapter that's basically written about him and he then goes investigating what and how the writing is extremely purple is so flowery it's too much for me personally

Loved

on one hand we have the lightning struck hard which is a hilarious extremely very adult humor book about a gay wizard apprentice with a gas unicorn there's a they're both very thirsty and it's very funny I definitely highly recommend the audiobook

Loved

we have we are legion which is basically about a guy who signs up for this hypothetical basically study about if he dies and his memories can be saved and/or his body can be saved until he can revive it and then after he signs up for that he gets hit by a car and thighs and then he wakes up he wakes up as a computer

Mixed

if you like we are the ants which is basically this kind of like story about mental health and also hope and your place in the world and is the world like worth living for kind of book I think both of these books were pretty ok I did enjoy both of them

Loved

it will save galaxy for food is basically about this planet where there hasn't been a war in a while so a lot of these pilots of wartime pilots are now just kind of glorified taxi people I do really think that if you enjoy one you'll enjoy the other and I really like both of them
