One thing in Margaret Atwoord’s Maddaddam that I definitely found amusing was the idea that Fuck (with a capital F) is an invisible entity that you can call of in times of need to aide you and make you feel better. As in “Oh Fuck, what’s going on?” 😂💙🪐📚 #booksky #SFF ##SciFi
I finished rereading the last book in the Maddaddam trilogy. I can’t exactly say it was a comfort read because there are some disturbing topics, but I did find it very engaging with lots of food for thought. 💙🪐📚 #booksky #SFF
I’m continuing to enjoy my reread of Margaret Atwood’s Maddaddam trilogy. I think I got more out of reading The Year Of The Flood immediately after Oryx and Crake because there were a lot of characters briefly mentioned in the first book that were central to the second. #booksky #SFF 💙🪐📚
I decided to reread Margaret Atwood’s Maddaddam trilogy. It’s definitely been a different experience than when I first read it. I enjoyed Oryx and Crake, but parts are certainly dark. 💙📚🪐 #books #SFF
I’ve been in a bit of a slump lately, but I found Valet by J.P. Lacrampe to be very readable. The characters definitely grew on my as the story progressed. 💙📚🪐 #books #SFF #booksky
I love Seanan McGuire’s Alchemical Journeys series and I thought Inkpot Gods was really good. I enjoyed getting some more of the story/details of one of the important background characters from the previous books. But, damn, it sure ended on a cliffhanger!! 💙📚🪐 #booksky #SFF #fantasy
Not me over here tearing up reading Iceman Omega Issue 1. #comics
I’m continuing my reread of Mercedes Lackey’s Elemental Masters series. This one, The Wizard of London, has been my favorite so far, mainly because it introduced some recurrent characters (Sarah, Nan and their bird friends and Robin Goodfellow) that I like enjoy. 💙📚🪐 #books #SFF #Fantasy
Nobody’s Baby is another fun novella in the Dorothy Gentlemen series. I’m usually not a fan of mysteries, but I like the characters and world building/setting in this series. 💙📚🪐 #books #SciFi #SFF
we don't usually see each others headers, but here's mine. quote post with yours (if you feel like it)
Always happy to return to Ann Leckie’s world of the Imperial Radch. I enjoyed Radiant Star and now want to go back and reread the original trilogy. 💙📚🪐 #books #SFF
Yesteryear by Caro Claire Burke didn’t end up being what I expected it would be, but it was definitely interesting. 💙📚 #books #booksky
I reread another in Mercedes Lackey’s Elemental Masters series because I still felt like a comfort read. It’s been a long time since I read these earlier titles and I’m enjoying going back through them. 💙📚🪐 #SFF #booksky
I finished Books & Bewitchment, but pretty much skimmed the last third of the book. I wasn’t invested much in the characters and not at all interested in the romance. I did like the end bit, though. If there’s a sequel, I might give it a try if I needed something to read. 💙📚🪐 #SFF #booksky
I think Darby O’Gill did my favorite version of Livin’ Next Door To Alice. (Although I did once hear a polka version that was pretty cool.)😁
Looks like a start to another good series by Ilona Andrews. This Kingdom Will Not Kill Me was a fun read w/ some enjoyable characters. Since it often referenced a book-within-a-book, I had a little trouble keeping track of all the details, but it all came together in the end. 💙📚🪐 #SFF #booksky
The original attempt at my “Magneto Was Right” embroidery was no good because the fabric I chose was too stretchy. So, I’m giving it another try on some different fabric. Fingers crossed I have some success. 🧶 #embroidery #craftsky #xmen #comics
I have a full slate of TBR’s on my library app, but I needed a comfort read. It’s been a while since I’ve read the early parts of Mercedes Lackey’s Elemental Masters series, so I picked up The Serpent’s Shadow. Her books usually do the trick for me! 💙📚🪐 #booksky #SFF
I’ve loved everything I’ve read by T. Kingfisher, but I was a bit hesitant to read Wolf Worm because I kept seeing posts about how gross it was. Yes, by my (admittedly wimpy) standards, the subject matter was disturbing. 💙📚🪐 #booksky (1/2)
Murder by Memory was a bit uneven to me. I enjoyed the main character (a middle aged, knitting detective) & the world building, but got a little bit bored with the ins & outs of the murder mystery. That being said, the parts I liked are enough to make me want to give the sequel a try. 💙📚🪐 #booksky
I enjoyed the hell out The Somewhat Wicked Witch of Brigandale by C.M. Waggoner! It was a fun story with a main character that really resonated with me. In addition, the author had a delightful turn of phrase that had me chuckling throughout. I hope we get a sequel! 💙📚🪐 #booksky #SFF
It’s always a treat to go back to one of Seanan McGuire’s worlds and Butterfly Effects, the latest InCryptid novel, was no different. My only complaint is I could have used more of the Aeslin Mice (I get such a kick out of them!) 💙📚🪐 #booksky #SFF
I finished The Red Winter by Cameron Sullivan and it was great. It was very engaging and the story went places I wasn’t expecting. I look forward to reading more about the main characters’ exploits! 💙📚🪐 #SFF #booksky
I liked having a book with a person who runs an animal shelter as a main character. I thought the story drug on a bit in the middle, but I definitely came away wishing the main character would come and organize my life! 😂💙📚🪐 #books #SFF
I enjoyed The Keeper Of Magical Things by Julie Leong. It was a cozy and amusing. I particularly liked the resolution of the story. 💙📚🪐 #SFF #books
I really enjoyed Outlaw Planet by M.R. Carey. It was not what I expected. At first, it seemed to have disparate storylines, but they came together. Dog Bitch Bess was a complex character I liked. This book is one of the best I’ve read in a while. 💙📚🪐 #books #SFF
