pickI liked characters and rooted for them. Atmosphere was also really well created: this was a dark book!
Plotwise this felt like being a bit everywhere and that made me like this slightly less than previous book.
pickI really liked the writing and main character's “voice“. She was relatable and I really rooted for her. In the last part of the book I started to forget who was who because there were so many new characters and didn't know much of them.
Atmosphere was awesome and so well created - I even had nightmares while reading this.
As a story this was pretty simple but intriguing enough. This really was worth reading.

Have Sonia and Sonny cued up for a listening opportunity. Will likely finish Death and make progress in Red Sky today now that chores are done. I‘m liking the tagged so far for #TOB2026. Caught up with buddy reads.
pickAcross the Universe follows Amy, who‘s awakened from cryosleep fifty years early aboard the ship Godspeed. She connects with Elder, next in line to lead the ship‘s society, and together they uncover who‘s targeting the other frozen passengers—and the lies running the ship. It starts a bit slow but ramps up fast, and I‘m excited it‘s only the first in a trilogy!
Hello #SheSaid!
I hope this week has been treating you well and that you enjoyed the break/catch-up month. We are back this week with the first section of The Fifth Season! It is a reread for me, but I have to say I still feel as lost in the beginning this time as I did then, even though I know it all makes sense later… how are you making out with this week‘s section?
pickA strange and disturbing book - despite the cover, this is dark and dystopian. The kind of unexpected book for which I love the TOB. At first I thought I was reading a sort of fairy tale, but the story slowly unfolds and becomes increasingly unsettling. A strong pick. #TOB2026
Life has cut back on my reading time. Finally getting to the second book of this series I promised my oldest I would read.
pickThis was an intriguing audio. It‘s classified as Science Fiction but I didn‘t think of it as Sci-Fi. The characters are brought to a compound in a desert to be filmed for a reality tv show. As time goes on and players are sent home, antics are upped, and trust begins to dwindle.I was most interested in how the game changed the characters personalities and thought processes over time spent within the compound. Kinda creepy.
