Full disclosure: I have 20 pages left. But I loved the first two books and this one does not disappoint. The biggest thing though is the subtle consent moment.

Saint Anything | Sarah Dessen

I love Sarah Dessen. It took too long for me to finally get to Saint Anything, but the wait was worth it. It's not my favorite book by Sarah, but I liked it nonetheless.

I don't have any ideas what this epigraph means. Some help, please?

BookishMarginalia I guess if you want a dream to come true, you have the responsibility to work for it. 🤷🏻‍♀️ 7y

@rebeccaschinsky and @Liberty said I should read Sarah MacLean, and I can't resist a good pun, so here we are.

Mark Twain is rolling in his grave to know he's the epigraph on a Jane Austen retelling (he hated her). I'm so excited to read this, because I, unlike Twain, love Austen and any retelling I can get my hands on.

I am looking forward to getting into this so much.

Scavenger of Souls | Joshua David Bellin

A professor from my alma mater wrote this. It's the sequel to Survivor Colony 9. They are both on my TBR pile. They are YA, dystopian with a male protagonist. And it has a rad cover.

This is the sequel to The Fixer. It's more high stakes than the first, but it builds nicely. Barnes writes complicated relationships beautifully. I really liked the book. Even if they blew up my ship. 😠

Exit, Pursued by a Bear | E.K. Johnston

"I will not be a frozen example, a stunted monument to there-but-by-the-grace-of-God. I have danced before and I will dance tomorrow. As I exit the field with Polly, I close my eyes and imagine a baby who never was and a little girl who was never anything else. They will be forgotten..."

A retelling of Much Ado About Nothing has to bring it hard. This book brought it. The almost constant geek/fandom references only make me like it more. Oh, and you don't have to know much ado to enjoy it.

I just started, and I can already tell I'm going to have to force myself to slow down.
