I am very lukewarm about this. I can't quite call it a pick; I read it all with mild enjoyment, but very mild. I remember liking Garth Nix's work more than this in the past, but... not this, apparently.

Continuing to now avoid a #BookSpinBingo as much as possible, I'm now reading The Tomb of Dragons, and then A Pirate's Life for Tea! Although my wife has badly sprained (possibly broken) their ankle, so... I may be quite busy in the days to come.

Susanita Ouch. I hope your wife feels better soon. 1mo
shanaqui @Susanita Thank you! They're off to get an x-ray now, so here's hoping it's the best-case news... 1mo

The full book doesn't seem to be in Litsy, but oh well, this'll do. So far, it's entertaining enough without me feeling enthusiastic about it?

I enjoyed this book. It‘s a compilation of 9 short stories I enjoyed the interaction between the 2 MC‘s! I‘d like a series of full length fantasy novels featuring these two. Fun idea! I don‘t feel these stories were written with being in a compilation in mind so they don‘t meld smoothly together but each taken on their own is great fun. The narrator was a good fit!!

⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

Traci1 I love that cover. 13mo
Twainy @Traci1 hee I bought the book before I even read it 😁 cover buy. 13mo

Loved the set up and the magical puppet, but some of the stories didn‘t work for me. Also, the group of stories didn‘t work well as a cohesive unit the way you expect in a short story collection, but I liked the book enough that would read a Full-size novel in this world.

Starting this one. I‘ve slowly been getting into Garth Nix‘s books. This one caught my eye last weekend at a bookshop in Leavenworth, Washington.

shanaqui I can't remember if I've bought my friend this one... at one point I was buying her a Garth Nix book/series every year for Christmas. :D 3y

Aren‘t those covers BEAUTIFUL? 😍😍😍 I confess I bought Sabriel because of the cover. It was kind of an instalove kind of crush. 😂🤣 Now that I finally completed the series, I‘m ready to read Sabriel. The downfall is after the third book, he changed the covers. 😭 Don‘t you hate when that happens?

MidnightBookGirl Those are some gorgeous covers! And yes, changing covers mid-series is a crime against readers. Maybe look on Etsy to see if anyone sells covers that “fixes“ that problem? 4y
JudeCC @MidnightBookGirl Right? 😃 👍 4y

YA urban fantasy book set in London 1983. I enjoyed this book even though I don't usually read fantasy. It is about Susan Arkshaw who is trying to find her father. She meets up with Merlin, a left-handed bookseller, and his sister Vivien, a right-handed bookseller. They are looking for whoever has killed their mother. I love the fact that this book is about books and bookshops. I found it clever and entertaining and filled with British forklore.

EadieB It is a standalone but the ending felt like it was waiting for the next book in the series. If you love fantasy then I believe you will enjoy this book. 4y
TheAromaofBooks Woohoo!! 4y
