Afghan Lover's Collection | Leisure Arts

Mid-year reading review.
Here are all the books I've read and the granny squares I've crocheted from January through the end of June. If I keep up the same-ish pace, this will be half the blanket.

I‘m VERY late to the party for this #LSFBC #LitsySciFiBookclub and May #bookspin pick.
It took me three tries and several weeks to get past page 100. I almost dnf‘d this one. I‘m so glad I didn‘t. Once it clicked for me I really enjoyed it.

Cold Eternity | S.A. Barnes

I look forward to every S.A. Barnes book. It‘s how I discovered sci-fi space horror and I‘m all in.
They are just so much fun. I should have tried them sooner as I‘m a big space monster movie fan.
This was a lot of fun; quite the ride. Perfect? No. But FUN. If anyone has any recs on books like this, please let me know below.
For those who have read this, I have a question in the comments.

⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

MaleficentBookDragon What was with the damn button?!?! Was it just to wear her down mentally and physically? I also wanted more of Karl. He died too fast. 3mo

candc320 I thought the same thing about the button! I think it was just a way to get people to the ship to do the “job” and then they have to walk around and be vulnerable for the monster. Also, I assumed Karl would actually be an AI or just not on the ship, so I was a little disappointed he was just working for Zane. 3mo

MaleficentBookDragon @candc320 I was thinking Karl was going to be some Frankenstein type doctor using the bodies in the tanks to make a monster or something. I wanted more of him and from him. I also really thought Niina was going to get away somehow and show up at the end. She would be an amazing villain in a second book. The end seemed rushed when we finally got there. I still loved this one though. 3mo

candc320 I agree completely! 3mo

Kitta I was just thinking about your book blanket haha 3mo

RosePressedPages I definitely agree! I wish the suspense and dread had been built up a little more too. Once the big reveal happened, there wasn‘t very much time spent really fleshing it out. Sometimes I feel like Barnes shies away from committing to the horror she creates but I did think this one was very fun. Some space horrors I‘ve found so far are Paradise-1, Scourge Between Stars, Salvation Day, Contagion, We Have Always Been Here, and Ship of Fools. (edited) 3mo

MaleficentBookDragon @RosePressedPages Thank you! I'm going to check those out. 3mo

Vera Wong's Guide to Snooping (on a Dead Man) | Jesse Q Sutanto

pick

This was a super cute, quick and fun read.
My only complaint is the overuse of eye rolling 🙄 mentioned every other paragraph for a bit. It was noticeable enough it actually took me out of the story.
I wish more of the old gang were in it, but it would have gotten too crowded; and the new characters were great.
I recommend this, especially if you liked the first one. #bookcover #grannysquare #readingblanket2025 #bookblanket

Caterina I'm so intrigued by your granny square reading blanket, but it sounds dangerously tempting - I'd need quite the array of yarn to try it out, and I already have too much! 🫣 I hope you post a finished pic at the end of the year! 3mo
