Welcome to Litsy!

As an interlude between reading all 4 Inheritance Cycle books and then almost spring-boarding myself into Murtagh, this was nice! I liked seeing different aspects of Alegaesia and checking in on my fav (even tho his story was the shortest smh my head).

2 Aussie authors. Tagged book going free as a throw out from local library. The other published last year $1 in an op shop. Could not believe it @MrsMalaprop . On to my TBR shelf they go. Also got to see some of the Sydney Writer‘s Festival on the big screen at our State Library. Helen Garner, Ian Rankin and Anna Funder.

@Billypar ‘s review made me pick this one up and I wasn‘t disappointed. Short stories about food are totally my thing! It‘s short and delicious and it‘s not about caviar 😉

And with this, I give you my last post of the night. I can‘t give this book a rating outright because each story was very different. Hence, the rating next to each story within the book. It‘s super short, and for someone that does not like sci-fi, these are pretty great.

'It is the loneliness which is so appalling. We whirl along like leaves, and nobody knows -nobody cares where we fall, in what black river we float away.'

This book has so many little snippets of text that i just love so much. It's almost poetical! Beautifully written.

I'm not sure quite how to rate this one because I did decide to finish it, and liked some of the stories, but I never felt grabbed and constantly felt kinda like DNFing it. I couldn't even tell you why exactly; I like Zen Cho's writing, and there wasn't anything specific I disliked, just... somehow didn't work for me.

One of the last books I bought. Used a gift certificate I got for Xmas. Sort of an impulse buy. One of the authors whose name I knew but was never exposed to as an English major.

Stopped by a Barnes & Noble and just wandered until something caught my eyes. Today‘s winners were the tagged book—I‘m not even sure I knew Bradbury wrote crime fiction—and a middle grade fantasy, the first couple of pages were very entertaining. Looking forward to the long weekend and some good reading.
