It‘s definitely dystopian, no closure, depressing, not even sure I liked the main character, yet somehow, I loved it.

3.5 Stars • The Warm Hands of Ghosts by Katherine Arden is a gripping, emotional ride through World War I. Nurse Laura Iven hunts for her lost brother Freddie in a war-ravaged world, blending raw history with a touch of spooky magic. Arden‘s beautiful writing pulls you into the heartbreak and horror, with a creepy figure, Faland, adding chills. A must-read for anyone who loves deep, atmospheric stories.
My sister recommended this to me, and I really liked it. It‘s a translated dystopian story about a girl who grew up in an underground prison with 39 women. They have no idea why they are imprisoned. One day they hear sirens and the guards run off while the door is open, and they venture out into the world.
It‘s a short book but spans the MC‘s entire life. Strange and haunting.
⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️Haunting, intense, loneliness, love, survival, self reflection.
What does it mean to be human. Powerful read! I wish more people were aware of this book.
I just started this one, and I can honestly say I have no idea where I am. 🤣 Apparently, it is underground somewhere.

A group of 40 women is kept in a cage together underground, how they got there is unknown. After years, one day there‘s a sound, the door to cage is left open and they can leave.
I‘m not sure what this book was trying to say, but it does look at loneliness and belonging, and surviving.
Very philosophical genre fiction. Normally I don't go for the more literary or thought experiment sci fan but this was very good and I didn't actually mind that there are no real plot answers.
Unique and hauntingly intense. I am ruined. Filled with both hope and despair. I know it‘s early, but this is probably going to be my best book of the year. It‘s definitely on my ‘you should read this‘ list.
