September 2021 Reading Wrap Up

i read cersei by madeleine miller about three years ago when it came out and i liked it but i didn't love it

it's actually a very jovial story it's told with real wit sarcasm sometimes it's sweet it's interesting and it's very relatable for a lot of reasons and for a lot of people beautiful cover very short novel about 200 pages and i can't recommend it enough

it's only okay i thought that it succeeded and failed an equal measure

these are both fantastic books in very different ways they each excel as a why a and an adult novel

the city gets a lot of love here it's a really beautiful love letter to that city i love kyoto it's a beautiful place and she really manages to capture it fantastically here in this novel

to your eternity is a masterpiece of strange fantasy epic narrative

the translation here is fantastic but the writing itself is not so much i liked and didn't like this book in equal measure

these are both fantastic books in very different ways they each excel as a why a and an adult novel

i really enjoyed that novel i really did i was obsessed with it while i was reading it

i made a video about how becky chambers and the long way to a small angry planet kind of saved me from that

it's not got a real satisfying ending but the themes and the ideas here are fantastic and i love historical fiction by women

it had a predictable narrative but i liked the setting and the characters and again it reminded me of paranorman which is actually one of my favorite films

i thought the song of achilles was a masterpiece it really is as good as people say

if you haven't yet picked up this book and you are in the uk and you are cisgender i really urge you to read this book it is so educational informative and kind

finland saga is a masterpiece it is a viking epic that features leif eriksen it is a huge epic story about revenge and muddled ethics and morals

i really am enjoying witch hat atelier it is stunningly drawn
