bailedSad to #dnf this, but I just don‘t like it. The characters are not very engaging and just horrible things are happening to the women/female characters which I just don‘t wish to read about anymore. I think I will just jump to the Fitz & the Fool series and pass on the Rainwilds - which is generally disliked. #hailthebail
#roll100 off the tbr and 1st #bookspinbingo
I‘ve picked my #ThematicCozies book for January. I‘ll also put it on my #readyourebooks & #Roll100 lists.
pickThis was a bit more fluff compared to the others in this series. But glad to be back in Trollope's Barsetshire.
Soft pick.

pickI really enjoy this series. It wasn‘t as Christmassy as I was expecting, but still a good third book in the series. Book 4 will probably be on my 2025 #Roll100 list.

pickAn intriguing collection of Gay‘s personal essays ranging in topics across feminism, talking about race, sexuality, reproductive rights, sexual violence, & police brutality.
Such an intense read, that I had to take in small chunks, especially the section Gender & Sexuality. I found myself highlighting a lot. It‘s fascinating to see how feminism has evolved in the last 10 years, & yet how we are still fighting the same goddamned fights. 🌕🌕🌕🌕🌑
bailedBailing on this, not because the writing is bad, but it is just not for me. Moving on!

A #roll100 book off my physical tbr
Space battles, spies, betrayals and desperate action. Okay series, but not as good as some other space opera.

pickI so, so love those two! They're showing us what a healthy relationship looks like, even though you're struggling with mental health, disabilities and homophobia. When I consider their age it's like wow! I couldn't have such talks with my partners when we were 19/20 🙈

so-so#roll100 for November which I‘ve been reading since before thanksgiving. It was slow going with bits of action here & there. The couple spends very little time in Scotland & I was missing a sense of place. Although I liked the ending which bumped it up to 3⭐️
Maybe I would have enjoyed it more if I‘d read the rest of the series (This is book 6)? I enjoyed the author‘s Fever series so grabbed this secondhand a few years ago. Glad it‘s off my TBR.
