Maya, a graduate student & former thief, promises to help her dearest friend steal the object xyr species needs to repopulate. Only w/ Earth‘s military after them, & something destroying the pathways between space, everything is much more complicated.

Gorgeous. Heists in space, a wildly diverse & interesting cast, & a twisty turny plot that kept me hooked. A slow start, & a little info dump heavy sometimes, but well worth the read.🌕🌕🌕🌕🌑

“Marco doesn‘t believe in optimism.” - Jake

The most reluctant of the Animorphs has a really rough time - my favourite part was when he convinced the others that the best plan was morphing into lobsters to escape pursuit and jumping into a lobster tank at a supermarket (they got sold and almost ended up as dinner).

Marco can‘t catch a break (except for that one nice moment with his dad at the end). The stakes continue to rise! Great instalment.

Adina is an undercover, asexual alien reporting on human behavior on Earth. Quite the blurb and so many people raved about it that I was sure I would too but I didn‘t. I didn‘t like the writing and thought the story was a bit boring. Glad I finished it. #unpopularopinion.

#WeeklyForecast 43/24

I am looking forward to all of these three books although I probably won‘t be able to read them all this week. I have just started For Reasons Unknown.

squirrelbrain Ooh, I have Beautyland bookmarked on Everand on audio - it‘s a strong possibility for ToB I think. 2w
BarbaraBB @squirrelbrain Yes! I think so too! 2w
Hooked_on_books I really liked Beautyland. It‘s so unique. And I‘d like to read Annie Bot, so I look forward to seeing what you think of it. 2w

This was a humorous and sometimes poignant look at what it means to be human. Lots of discussion on mental health, love, and the beauty of humanity. I've never been one to enjoy most poetry but this made me want to seek out the complete work of Emily Dickinson.

I had a really good time with this because heists in space but also this has some flaws so it's not really perfect. Would I go on another adventure with the cast in this world yes but I'd hope for a little more depth than this provided.

Decided to take a reading break while at Disney. When I wasn‘t looking all the Halloween lights came on!
