Defekt | Nino Cipri

pick

⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

Sequel to « what would happen if a wormhole opened in an IKEA? » novella Finna by Nino Cipri.

I love speculative fiction and this two book series is a great example of it. The humour is dry and dark. And there‘s some action in each of the novellas.

Very entertaining and a quick read.

Island Time: A Novel | Georgia Clark

pick

Soft pick. I liked the characters and how they developed. Especially, funny enough, the fathers. Some 🌶️ but I didn't really care for that. It was fun and entertaining, but also kind of forgettable. Perfect background noise to listen to while doing something else.

Our August #QueerBC author was Alice Oseman. Feel free to discuss your reading here.

rwmg 1. I'd read Heartstopper and Solitaire earlier this year so it was too soon to read them again. I Was Born For This was the only stand-alone in the bookshop.

2. As someone whose relationships with fictional characters aren't always the healthiest I found the themes of fandoms and what I believe are called parasocial relationships fascinating.

3. Too many to choose just one. (edited) 3w

Kitta I read heartstopper and couldn‘t stop and just read the whole series. 😂 I normally don‘t enjoy any kind of romance but this was just so sweet without being saccharine. I related a lot to Charlie and his difficulties with being outed and the past abusive relationship. I didn‘t come out for years and I wish I had while in highschool to more people. I normally don‘t enjoy coming out stories but this was so well done and lovely to read on my kindle. 3w

willaful @Kitta I love Heartstopper so much! 3w

Zuhkeeyah I read Solitare. It was a dark story where Tori ghosted through the school day. The ending was confusing and didn't really resolve anything. Her parents are the worst. I did love the interactions with Oliver. He and Nick were the only people she never judged. 3w

willaful @Zuhkeeyah I actually gave up on that one. You might try one of her graphic novels for something more fun. 3w

willaful 1. Radio Silence kinda chose itself because it was the last of theirs I haven't read or DNFs. 😁 It was also on my #Roll100 list so I continue my streak of only reading the numbers that *haven't* been chosen! I rarely like their novels as much as their graphic novels, and this might have been my favorite so I'm glad I got to it.

2. The main theme was being your own person. I related as someone who “masks“ a lot.

cont. (edited) 3w

willaful 2. parasocial relationships were also a theme -- I was Born for This has a lot of echos of Radio Silence. But I felt it was underexplored here. Fav character was maybe Raine, who's very comfortable being herself and consequently has the bandwith the help others.

3w

willaful 3. Quote that stood out, Daniel saying sadly 'Everyone wants the gay couple to get their happy ending, don't they.“ Scene that stood out: Frankie discovering death threats on Aled's desk. 😭 3w

Zuhkeeyah @willaful I love the Heartstopper series. I knew going in the book would have a very different vibe. It was the fact that it didn't go anywhere despite all the pages that frustrated me 2w

willaful @Zuhkeeyah It was their first novel, I think they improved. But nothing's as good as Heartstopper for me. 2w

Jari-chan I read Radio Silence, because I'm not that much into Heartstopper and didn't feel like rereading Loveless. It was a perfect coice for me and my favourite book by her so far. It's about friendship more than about romantic relationships, which is great. Because friendship is often regarded as not as important as the romantic love, which just isn't true. 2w
