I love Murderbot! They‘re so snarky, sarcastic & adorable. I‘m 50/50 with the size of the books, on one hand the novella size makes them a great quick read between chunksters or heavy novels, on the other you‘re left wanting more. And there‘s only 4 of them😢 Highly recommended 5⭐️ My #Pop19 #BookWithATwoWordTitle #ReadingWomenChallenge #ANovella

Once Ghosted, Twice Shy: A Reluctant Royals Novella | Alyssa Cole

pick

I can‘t express how much I loved this story. It was sad and sweet with just enough tension. And the epilogue made me cry a little, in a really good way. Kotsi is sexy as hell, I want to *be* Fab, and the city was a charming character in itself. This novella might be my favorite Alyssa Cole book. (I have to finish reading all her stuff first, just to be sure, lol!)

Kitchen | Banana Yoshimoto

so-so

Interesting way to explore grief, deep sadness and loneliness ... but this story left me totally unaffected. 🤷‍♀️ I can‘t explain why, because I do think that Mikage is cute character, that the prose is effective, and I like warm atmosphere throughout the story, but still - this story was not for me.

emilyhaldi I agree, the MC felt very distant in this book. Interesting perspective on grief but hard to connect fully. 5y

Simona @4thhouseontheleft I participate in three challenges, so in this year my approach is slightly opportunistic🤗 5y

Simona @4thhouseontheleft For novella I highly recommend

The Standing Chandelier: A Novella

Simona @emilyhaldi I have read a few reviews (just to see if there's something in this story that I don t understand) and her writing/narration style is often compared with Murakami‘s. In Murakami‘s stories MC is (almost) always distant, observer of the life and I like them ... but in this story this distant position wasn‘t enough for connection. 5y

The Beauty | Aliya Whiteley

so-so

Women die out from a fungus disease, but come back in a sense as mushroom women. The main character, Nathan, is the story-teller of what's left of the men and he brings these mushroom women back to the group to bizarre and disturbing results. A post-apocalyptic, gender-bending horror tale. With mushrooms.

kgriffith With mushrooms. 😂 5y

imyril I‘m so curious now. Mushrooms! 5y

night_shift @kgriffith @imyril mushrooms! It's a very bizarre little story! 5y

CaseyTheCanadianLesbrarian Wow this sounds unique! 5y

night_shift @CaseyTheCanadianLesbrarian it is! The way it's written is pretty interesting too. It flows a lot like poetry almost. I got some good quotes from it. 5y
