The Menace from Earth - 3/5 Stars - Like a lot of science fiction writers, Robert Heinlein just wrote and published tons of stories.

“The greater the desire, the greater the suffering, and now she desired greatness itself.”

She Who Became the Sun (The Radiant Emperor, #1) by Shelley Parker-Chan

March 23, 2022 by narfna 2 Comments

I was a weeny and put off writing a review of this because I wasn't sure what I wanted to say about it, and now it's been a month since I finished. I feel like I've told you this story before. Coincidentally, this is a retelling! I didn't pay too much attention to the specific plot of this one … [Read more]

“Beauty influencer and game geek. It’s not intuitive.”

Because, ok, while I’d heard lots of praise for this book, I wasn’t sure about whether I’d be interested in a romance with two influencer MCs. Luckily, this book drew me in with all of its geeky, cute glory. “I don’t know. … [Read more]

The Book I Needed Right Now

The Infinite Blacktop by Sara Gran

March 23, 2022 by Jake 1 Comment

I really needed this book right now. I tried for almost a decade to get into the Claire DeWitt series. I thought the idea of a transgressive detective traipsing around the country solving crimes while spitting wry dialogue would be fun. But I felt like Sara Gran laced her books with too many … [Read more]

“Come with me, quickly. There isn’t much time left and I want to show you something beautiful.”

Radiant Fugitives by Nawaaz Ahmed

March 22, 2022 by booktrovert Leave a Comment

This is a beautiful novel about adjusting our expectations. Sometimes, things are more or less as we think they will be  - but there is beauty and tragedy in the MORE and LESS of that. Imagine that sentiment said far more lyrically. Radiant Fugitives is the story of a family from Chennai. The … [Read more]
