panThis book is all tell and no show. We're told about the interesting and amazing histories of the two main characters, yet the characters, a fallen god and a man-killing fox, sound and act like teenagers.
The world was interesting, if underdeveloped, and I liked the mix of Korean mythology and urban fantasy tropes.

Oh my, this book really is something special. I'm reading slowly to savour every verse.😍 I can't understand why this author is not stocked in the UK.

pickI'm behind on #riseupreads. It took me a bit to get my hands on this book, only to discover my mom owns it. 🫠 This was an interesting book, but some of the history was not new to me. I appreciated the lesser known stories about non-white women the most. While this is a pick for me, it ultimately made me want to read books from the Indigenous perspective. I'm going to read An Indigenous Peoples' History of the United States next.

New book arrived from USA this week. ✔️ I decided to wait for #HyggeHour as it looks like a very mindful read.
Happy me ✔️

This was an interesting book and really good on audio. I‘m glad it was picked for this month. This book is about clinical depression and trauma, with fairytale whimsy swirled in.
At the airport, heading to Hilo for the day. Breakfast & a few chapters of this one for #RiseUpReads
Glad it‘s Friday! 😵💫😴🥱
