pickThis was somehow really cozy to read: characters were likable and felt realistic. Both main characters had something unpleasant that has happened in their past. And they both had troubles in their lives, this all made them feel alive and relatable.
This had quite nice atmosphere, it felt a bit mysterious and magical.
Everything suddenly resolved quite quick and easy. But that also made this comfortable to read.

pickWhy is that cover NOT emerald green? Anyway, re actual book: Sweet. Fantasy adventure with a side of sporror and snippets of sci fi. Somewhere between T.Kingfisher and Terry Pratchett: there's some funny, perhaps less social commentary and more advice for the YA crowd, does direct to reader well, retains that ability to go dark or gross for a moment. 1/?
Day 3 of the #scarathlonphotochallenge and my absolute favourite literary death. Death of the Endless is one of my absolute absolute favourite things in the sandman, and the sandman is one of my all time favourite pieces of writing.

Probably the weakest of the three books of the trilogy, although I do love the ents. It is just that I find Sam and Frodo‘s story drags once they leave the fellowship.
Looking forward to completing Return of the King and sharing all of the films with Trix.
pickWho wouldn't fall for an intense, brilliant, but slightly damaged Victorian inventor? This Sapphic short novel is my first book in the Parasolverse. Both heroines are human, but it's set in that supernatural-infused world. Which book should I read next? The next in this sub-series, or should I go back to the beginning?

In try his #GOTChapteraDay #ReadingWesteros with Jon we find out who the hand belongs too. Yet, they still don‘t see Ben Stark. Sam deduces that the bodies they found have been dead a while based on the blood. Then Jon is literally in a nightmare. I‘m not completely sure what is going on, but it sure seems like actual zombies. @5feet.of.fury
