pickBoth The One and The Passengers were five star reads for me so my expectations of Marrs‘s third speculative novel were sky high. I am so sorry they weren‘t met! This book, about four people carrying the state‘s secrets in their bodies, is good and clever but too many things just didn‘t feel right or were a bit off. I was left behind with some questions and a little disappointed. Still a light pick though.

Is this scary or what 😱? So is the book by the way!
Love the book stamp you can get put in your books in Libreria London

pickFast-paced Sci-Fi novel that has some Ready Player One vibes, but definitely is it's own beast. Emika Chen (hacker, gamer, bounty hunter) is a fun character to follow. I plan to start the sequel soon.

In this electrifying near-future thriller, five strangers guard government secrets, but only four can be trusted.
The Minders by John Marrs is a good fit for those seeking a thrilling and thought-provoking read that explores the consequences of a world where secrets are currency and the truth is guarded by a select few.
I set a goal of one book. Only because I like having the year end round up graphic generated. Also it feels very rewarding seeing it tell you that have read 1000% of your goal. And I do enter my books on storygraph and Goodreads mostly because I have accidentally checked out a book I really didn't care for and didn't realize it until I read far enough into it.
