The Last Book Haul of 2021!

i really enjoy this one i think this is one of the best novellas in the parasol verse it is quite unusual and how almost melancholy it is but it is still a lovely romantic story at the end

i enjoyed this to a certain extent because you know gorman is a good poet she's a budding poet she's new but she has a strong style and voice what i found i didn't super connect with in this collection is that most of it is about events of the last two years

what i remember most about this book is frankly that it still felt like a good story and it was relevant they're it's an interesting story to discuss with other people about like how realistic some of the things in it are

i read elizaway by her last year loved it

i have of course already read this and admired the artwork it is so pretty and such an interesting topic i really enjoyed this so really worth picking up if you've ever been interested in this whole idea of like the language of flowers

i re-read it in december just for the feels it was so good this is a male historical romance set right after world war ii and it's two unlikely people decide to investigate murder mystery in an english village i liked it so much it's so good

i enjoyed it but it's not one of my absolute favorites like whenever i have to say something like what is my favorite like penric novella even if i say it's not one of my favorites i still probably rated it five stars because when are these not fantastic

i did like this i think most of the pieces in this are from her blog a lot of them are about her cat i think about pard so i like this but it's not one of my favorite collections by her but it was good

i enjoyed it a lot like basically any of ursula vernon's world of the white rat books i love them

i will probably treat myself to a reread of these in january just for something sweet and comforting and beautiful because these are books for children for younger readers but they are just so gorgeous on the inside

this is a collection of flash fiction and it is full of just little gems i am not actually a fan of flash fiction but this was a wonderful collection i highly recommend it for people who love unholly's fiction just in general

i will admit that the second half isn't as strong but for people who stick with the series and really love dogger he becomes a main character in the last couple of books and that has made everything worth it for me

the island of dr moreau i hated that book

i enjoyed the midwich cuckoos i think this is one of his most famous novels there was a movie kind of based on it i enjoyed it and i was a bit surprised by the ending because i expected it to just continue being this sort of sleepy english village alien invasion thing and then it was like oh you went there

i will probably treat myself to a reread of these in january just for something sweet and comforting and beautiful because these are books for children for younger readers but they are just so gorgeous on the inside

war of the worlds was surprisingly good and i thought it might be one that i would actually revisit sometime in the future

a really interesting question but i thought the book was frankly a little bit too long it started to feel like it was repeating itself somewhat

i loved this novella i also liked the sequel and i believe there's going to be a third one out next year but i just got a copy of the first one because it's particularly like my favorite

i've already read this book it was very helpful
