The Wicked Bargain | Gabe Cole Novoa

History, ships, pirates, queer characters - what's not to love? Exactly! Sure, at the end it got a bit too much YA for me, but I think in that age readers just need that. Everything else was just an awesome ride. I loved how Mar grows and learns to accept themselves, Novoa wrote their journey really good and I think a lot of young readers will relate. And maybe some of us older ones, too?

Another cute instalment.
Sawa has a horrible mother, but at least she finally has some friends.
The Sohma‘s seem like a nice family (and I still have no idea who from the originals 90% of them are related to)

Again, very cute.
It would be very tiring trying to keep track of the huge Sohma family! But they are very welcoming.

I am trying to piece together who everyone‘s parents are from the original, but I‘m not having much luck 😂

I enjoy Elisabeth Wheatley‘s videos and decided I should try her books. This is the first book of a complete series and available on Hoopla, so I thought it would be a better choice than her new series. It has some interesting world building, but it‘s also very much a first book that sets up a series. I‘m giving it a light pick, and I may or may not pick up the next books when I‘m looking for another light fantasy listen.

A super cute start to this series.
Very mysterious but no one is turning into zodiac animals, so I am interested in what makes the family so popular/intriguing in this generation.
