What Lies in the Woods | Kate Alice Marshall
post image

I am 3 minutes into an 11 hour audio and already I can tell it‘s going to be hard to focus on the story when the intonations and inflections of the narrator are driving me nuts. Anyone else ever feel that way?

CoverToCoverGirl I felt that way about the narration of Fourth Wing, after 3+ hours I couldn‘t take it any longer. However it really is a very rare occurrence for me to dislike a narration most are done extremely well. 1w
ShelleyBooksie I read this one and liked it. I know exactly what you mean about certain audiobooks! 1w

Heavy. Absorbing and thought-provoking. My second book of the year but guessing it‘ll be one of my favorites.

ChaoticMissAdventures I absolutely love this one. The footnotes are so helpful and not something you see often in fiction. 2w

And that‘s all she wrote. 76/80 read, one more than last year. 2025 goal set (maybe I‘ll even hit 80!)

Here‘s to great books, reading challenges, and fun Litsy swaps in the new year.

Cheers to 2024! Happy New Year! 🎉

All Systems Red | Martha Wells
post image

Well, that was fun. I loved book 1, have book 2 on hold, and am happy there are 6 more in the series to look forward to.

Not overwhelmingly technical and a completely relatable AI protagonist. Witty and thoughtful. The novella format keeps the narrative engaging.

Worth a try even if you don‘t think Sci-fi is your thing.

ChaoticMissAdventures Yay! So glad you liked this one, I think Murderbot is so much fun! 2mo
