I think I would love to reread daughter of smok and bonees by Lanny Taylor because apparently she's writing a new book SLS series question mark and I just I've never reread daughter smok and Bone and that's one of my favorite like 2010s series

Loved

I technically did that technically I read a like a two-hour audio book of a marami Nolla called The Strange Library which was really crazy for such a short book it was unhinged and I really enjoyed it but like I don't know that really counts that I read marami because I haven't really read a full- length novel by him but because I like that Noella so much my hope is that I can read some morakami some real morakami especially because it's translated and as far as samanta goes samanta Sam I don't know which one it is samanta schweblin I read a short story collection by her that I really loved called seven empty houses and it was super great it was very compelling I loved her writing I want to read more of her but I haven't really read like a novel by her and specifically some of her like bigger works like fever dream and there's another one I think called like little eyes maybe she has a couple of novels that I would like to read and I just want to read more of her stuff because she seems like a wonderful deranged person and I think we'd get along well those two were on my list last year and they are also on my list

Loved

number one the bone season by Samantha Shannon and the reason this is on here is a very exciting reason I get to read the fifth book in the series finally I've been waiting for book five in the bone season since January of 2021 and when I finished it I was wrecked emotionally distraught it's a terrible ending to book four huge Cliffhanger just TR magic are you kidding me Samantha I'm going to kill you awful Hugo what are we going to do I'm so scared I don't

I got about 200 pages into it I was really compelled by it and then my personal life blew up and I stopped and then my personal life continued to blow up for about 6 months and then I stopped reading allog together and so now it's been four years and it is still not done and I have great interest because it was really good and also the reason I want to read it is because it's metalic and so it's really cool it is done by a graphic designer and so it's like it's a mystery it's a puzzle book but it also has just like a lot of really cool mixed media stuff in it and like I said I've read about 200 pages and it's really cool it's about computers and Ai and robots and Aliens question mark and that's about as much as I know but I H I know this book is going to change my life it wasn't right to read it in 2021 and I want to fix it and read it in 2025 watch this space witness me as they say
