Yay!!!!!! It's out!!!!! Yay!!!!!!

"Like me! OK, that is not really why I happened. I happened because my parents had sex." Hahaha!!! This novella about a baby god set in NK Jemisin's the hundred thousand kingdoms world is awesome. I am thoroughly enjoying myself!!

"Still... I could not help drinking in the view. It is important to appreciate beauty, even when it is evil."

Compulsively readable and hard to put down. I can't imagine I'd read it again but I think this will be one of those books that haunts me. The morality tale of "the road to hell is paved with good intentions". And a great reminder of how neurotic and self-absorbed and absorbing our social media can be. Is it really worth hurt feelings when someone doesn't follow you back? Careful- that way there be dragons.

This book is giving me anxiety! I feel the social media/work worlds closing in- it's a sense of suffocation, like drowning in a sea of people.

Sunday morning porch reading while babies nap! Not my usual fair of light scifi/ fantasy/romance (with 3 kids under 3 and a full time job I need escape). However this is a book club book for the new group I just joined in an effort to feel more like a human and not a mom/employee/wife robot. Wish me luck!

I am so so so excited for this book!!! I'll devour it and then read it again slowly to get all the details I've missed in the first run.❤️🦁🗡🔮

I'm in my 3rd re-read of this trilogy and I'm realizing that the reason I find it so compelling is Breq's all-encompassing grief, and her deep surprise at her own lovability. Lost and found love and identity.

I liked it! A fast, fun read. Nalini Singh is my favorite romance author - she always hits all the right notes for me. My favorites were "Echo of Silence" and "Dorian".
