I just finished The Sun and the Star (after far too long), and I'm going to rate it 4/5 stars. The book is written by two authors, so the style was hard to adapt to at first, but I ended up loving it!
I might DNF the Odyssey for now, the translation I have (the Robert Fagles translation) is hard for me to read and I haven't touched it in months. I've heard Emily Wilson's translation is good, so I might pick that up at some point.
I plan to start reading Loveless by Alice Oseman next!
A Memory of Light, book #14 in the Wheel of Time series...and also the last(unless you count the prequel, New Spring). I'm about a third of the way through it so far and am excited to finish it!
I've been reading some witchy books in honor of Halloween. Yesterday I read The Girl Who Kept the Castle by Ryan Graudin, a middle grade book about a girl who has to help save her home and keep evil from disrupting the balance of her world after the wizard she works for passes away. And now I'm reading Flowerheart by Catherine Bakewell, which I'm really enjoying so far
I'm reading The House on The Cerulean Sea by TJ Klune. The characters are fantastic so far and I could totally see this book working well as a TV series. I brought my copy to a Starbucks earlier today and the barista said she owns a copy signed by the author. I'm super jealous.
Finished No Mark Upon Her by Deborah Crombie yesterday!
And just reread A Monster Calls by Patrick Ness. Planning to rewatch the movie soon and thought revisiting the book would be a good idea. Enjoyed the second read as much of the first if not more
Still reading A Memory of Light, more than halfway into it so far. I've decided to start reading another series too, though, The Expanse series, starting w/ Leviathan Wakes. Only on chapter 2 of that one though.
I started reading Abroad In Japan (by Chris Broad, whose YouTube channel has the same title) but haven't picked it up in ages now. This post is me holding myself accountable that I'll definitely read some more.
Had a long flight today, so I started reading The Mercy of Gods, by James S A Corey. I loved the authors’ Expanse series and read it over years as the books were released, so of course I had to get their newest book (unrelated to the prior series) from the library. I’m a sucker for a good science fiction novel. Strong start so far! I hope it sticks the landing.
