The Girl Who Could Move Sh*t with Her Mind by Jackson Ford. I think I accidentally requested a physical copy of the third book in the series, but haven’t read the first two, so I took the surprise arrival of a book in a series I’ve been eyeing as an opportunity to finally sit down and read it. Since the third book is a physical one, my husband got me the first as a paperback as well, so it’ll take me some time to read it. My schedule is a little weird in that I get most of my reading done sitting with my daughter while she’s falling asleep at night (in the dark), but can only read physical copies with the light on during the day, so I don’t get much daytime reading done most days.
Tales of the Clans: Ineluctable by Elsy Devaine. This is fairly standard fantasy with a group of people on a journey, except they capture a mysterious woman with ties to a wanted criminal. I’m not too far in, but so far I feel like it’s holding me at a distance since so much of how the characters feel and why they behave the way they do is told to me instead of shown through how they speak and behave.
What did you recently finish reading?
Son of the Storm by Suyi Davies Okungbowa. This turned out to be a bit bloody at the end, but it suited the story really well. The end also saw the start of a new adventure and changing character relationships, so I can’t wait to see what the next book has in store!
Fate Accompli by Keith R. Fentonmiller. Going into this, I kept thinking how weird it was to mix Greek mythology with the Italian Renaissance, but I actually really liked it! It does end up making perfect sense, and the two sides were just so well woven together it was like they’re meant to go hand in hand.
The Kingdoms by Natasha Pulley. This has to be both one of the more confusing and one of the most beautiful novels I’ve ever read. The back and forth in time and things changing had my head spinning and I desperately wished I had a physical copy so I could madly flip back and forth, but I absolutely fell in love with the love story playing out across the entire book because I was neither expecting nor knew it was going to be a part of the story.
What do you think you’ll read next?
Talk Bookish to Me by ate Bromley. I’m taking part in a book blog tour by the publisher at the end of the month, so I think I ought to get reading on this one! It sounds cute and has a wedding and books, so I’m hoping for a really good, fun read.
