How fast after a book is published is too soon to post a review?

Fugitive Telemetry by Martha Wells

by 3 Comments

So Murderbot book 6 came out yesterday. Yes, I admitted I had a problem last time, so I think we should all accept it and move on. What can I say? Let’s start with the basics: Fugitive Telemetry is a novella (yay!), works as a standalone adventure, and takes place chronologically before the events of Network Effect. I want to point this out because it’s the one thing that slightly disappointed me. After the end of Network Effect, I was expecting Murderbot to go off […]

A satisfying end to the year’s re-read

The Girl Who Kicked the Hornet's Nest by Stieg Larsson

**there are spoilers for book 2 in this review** I am finally done with my Millennium trilogy re-read. And I have to say, the whole thing holds up. I am again having a similar issue with book two, in that I finished it a couple of weeks ago and it seems to be rapidly slipping from my mind, but that’s okay. It gives me the chance to re-read it again and be surprised 10 years from now. So let’s see. The third book in the […]

A detailed, non-science based theorem I have no business sharing with anyone

Ace: What Asexuality Reveals About Desire, Society, and the Meaning of Sex by Angela Chen

by 4 Comments

So I 100% blame narfna and Dome’Loki for this. I am linking their reviews because they’ve both done a much better job explaining this book than I could ever hope to accomplish. I have discovered this book through their reviews and I was very excited to read it. I read Loveless, which was centered around an ace protagonist, and I knew I needed more information about this. So I roped a bunch of people into reading it with me. 🙂 This was the book for my […]

Why did people insist I not start here?

Elantris by Brandon Sanderson

by 2 Comments

So I think we were all here for my very late discovery of Booktube and Brandon Sanderson. And so far, I have clearly noticed that no matter how many fantasy booktubers I watch, they all have different opinions on how to approach the Cosmere. Which is, you know, to be expected on a 20+ book-universe spanning different series. But the one thing they all seem to agree on is that you should not start with Elantris. The reasons vary, but most of all they seem […]

Murderbot has become an addiction now

Rogue Protocol by Martha Wells

Exit Strategy by Martha Wells

Network Effect by Martha Wells

  So it’s official. I am now obsessed with Murderbot. After reading Artificial Condition, which I still maintain is the best in the series, I just couldn’t keep pacing myself, and just went through the entire series in a couple of weeks. Like an addict. What can I say? I am just so glad that I picked this entire series up despite the fact it is really not in my wheelhouse. It has completely changed my view on sci-fi, and I am so glad about […]
