Aerth | 
pickWinner of Weatherglass Books‘ Inaugural Novella Prize, chosen by Ali Smith. This book came across my TBR when people were mentioning books they would like to see on the Women's Prize list. It still has only about 200 reviews on GR!
While I think the writing is pretty, and the idea is fantastic, the storytelling felt distant, and I spent the entire day wishing I was reading Russell's The Sparrow. Still a pick for quick original (sad) read.
ChaoticMissAdventures This is quite depressing, but I will be thinking about it for awhile and wondering what (if anything) we are to learn from Aerth and Urth. How things can start the same and then dramatically diverge. The idea of exploring, and that pull to see more. I think I need something more positive next. 5d
