Nona the Ninth | Tamsyn Muir

101/150 This was easily my favorite book of the series, so far. This iteration of Harrowhawk was by far the most pleasant and endearing, so sweet and kind. Her fate at the end was heartbreaking 💔. I hope Muir comes out with Alecto The Ninth as soon as possible. 5 🌟 read.
101st book finished for #Readaway2024 @DieAReader @GHABI4ROSES @Andrew65

1. Anne or Rosalind, the middle names of my grandmothers.

2. Love all of the names of the characters in this whole book series. Sabriel, Lirael, I just love that -el sound at the end of the names.

Two weeks of #bookreport but not much to show. I'm making steady progress on audio, but reading with my eyes has been slow going. That's ok.

My #weeklyforecast is more just a bunch of possibilities. Who knows what I'll actually get to.

Was lucky enough to hit TWO bookstores with the best of friends, and came away with a lil haul. A couple I‘ve been wanting to read, and a couple impulse buys that looked really good. A good bookish Sunday!

Not a spoiler but maybe a meta spoiler if you dig too deeply, so don‘t? 🤣
I honestly don‘t remember if I caught this on a previous listen, and casually book clubbing it with friends means I‘m actually putting things together and not just listening in the abstract. This series gets better and better with each new layer of meaning!

cariashley I really need to get to this series! 10mo
kgriffith @cariashley it took me a couple of tries, but having regular convos with friends who are deep into the wiki and fandom has made it exceptionally fun 😄 10mo

My sister finally finished Harrow, so once again I am (mildly) penitent about not warning her how Harrow ended by buying her coffee, a thematically appropriate sticker, and Nona.

And no. I have not and will not warn her how Nona ends. 😅

Clare-Dragonfly I think you‘re going to have to buy her the fourth book too 😂 11mo
GondorGirl @Clare-Dragonfly I was going to say the same thing! We've all be victimized by these books. 😭 11mo

The Fall of the House of Cabal | Jonathan L. Howard

4/5⭐ A satisfying, if open-ended, finale to the entertaining Johannes Cabal series. Some of the exposition seemed superfluous, but the action and intensely dry humor made up for it. Zarenyia is a gift. #bookspin

Most of the book is set in the Old Kingdom, with medieval-type magic, but parts take place over the Wall in Ancelstierre, which seems to have WWII era technology (cars, b&w films, tanks, guns, planes).

Honestly, I‘m not sure that I have any idea whatsoever what is going on in these books anymore 🤷🏼‍♀️🤷🏼‍♀️🤷🏼‍♀️ book 1 I sort of did, book 2 I absolutely didn‘t, and this one was kind of in between? But they get away with it because the voice is just so brilliantly done. It also highly fascinated and amused me seeing my home country New Zealand the scene of a dystopian future. Will the final book clear anything up? Who knows! ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️
