When Lily arrives in the afterlife she finds that nothing is what she expected. The demons are hot, Hell is for Justice, & she enjoys working the Hellp Desk

If you haven‘t watched Jaysea‘s TikTok series that inspired this book, I recommend it! This book is the prequel, telling of Lily‘s journey, & her discovering the joys of the afterlife. A little long, & a little more sex, but full of heart & tears & an afterlife I could get behind.🌕🌕🌕🌕🌑

Tanith‘s job as a ride conductor becomes much more complicated w/ drug deals between cast members, management union busting, & oh yes, somebody is killing the other park employees.

Everything just felt so rushed. I liked the idea of poking fun at big amusement parks, mixed w/ a fairy tale themed serial killer, & the art was good & felt on brand, but we didn‘t get time to get to know anyone, & the ending wasn‘t set up enough for me. 🌕🌕🌕🌑🌑

Celeste is trying to escape the poverty of her home town. Dominic is trying to survive manipulative parents & a controlling boyfriend. & their ship is also transporting alien remains. Only, the aliens aren‘t as dead as they thought.

Loved the 2 MCs though their voices were too similar for both to be 1st person, & it had a slow start for a novella. But also fun world building in a short time, great side characters, & a hook of an ending!🌕🌕🌕🌗🌑

After the averted end of the world, Greta is tasked w/ a road trip w/ an angel & a demon to see if they can work together w/out having allergic reactions. Too bad this trip coincides w/ an attempted coup of the New York undead mob.

I‘m torn. This fixed 1 of my major problems w/ book 3, but also went straight back to Greta & The Boys. I found the mystery fascinating, the side characters charming, but the ending a bit abrupt & too open.🌕🌕🌕🌗🌑

Thousands of years into our future, an AI bonds w/ a young boy who is only trying to survive in his small town w/ his brother. & then the local wizard tries to force a specific story into happening.

I LOVE stealthy retellings. Arthurian characters get thrown into a blender w/ post apocalyptic science fantasy elements + your basic quest storyline. The pacing got a little wonky in the middle, but I loved Ariel & all the side characters.🌕🌕🌕🌕🌑

The story of the highs and lows of the four March daughters: Meg, Beth, Jo, and Amy.

I‘m still not sure how I made it out of an English degree without reading this, but I‘m kind of glad I came to it later. I don‘t think I would have appreciated the relationships between the sisters, or what we see of the March parents as much. There‘s a bit too much moralizing & women‘s duty is marriage/babies/emotional labor, but it is of it‘s time.🌕🌕🌕🌗🌑

In her efforts to escape a controlling uncle, Emilie accidentally stows away on a ship traveling through aetheric currents to the Hollow World. The discoveries made there will change everything.

2 novels, both wonderful reads! Emilie is an engaging protagonist & realistically young, & I love her growth especially in book 2. The side characters were fun, & the world building was fantastic. Very similar vibes to the movie Treasure Planet.🌕🌕🌕🌕🌗

What happens when a miserable farm wife gains access to a wizard‘s books of magics & thinks “why not”? Chaos. & then add a sassy familiar, the goblin market getting introduced to capitalism, & a talking plant.

Such fun! You can tell this is a writer raised on Terry Pratchett. There‘s humor & a moving story of a woman deciding what she‘s worth. I wish the side characters hadn‘t been so 1 dimensional, & too many threads left unresolved. 🌕🌕🌕🌕🌑

What would you do if you knew how much time you have left?

This is less a time management self help book, and more of a philosophical examination of how we prioritize our time, and how we‘ll never actually achieve perfection so it‘s okay to let some things go. Lots of good advice, and I will be buying a copy to mark up, but it didn‘t need to be as long as it was. 🌕🌕🌕🌕🌗

A Ghanaian concept, the word is expanded into the proverb “se wo were fi na wosankofa a yenkyi.”

Sankofa is the understanding that only by knowing your (personal, cultural, national) history can you know your current self, and know how to become better.

The concept feels particularly relevant right now.

Such an interesting collection! A variety of genres, all ranging in tone from a slight edge of unease to outright horror.
