Things go from shady oppressive government to running from a hostile government takeover (that we all saw coming) really fast in this volume. I'm always a fan of knowledge keepers providing safe haven. I really enjoyed watching the characters and story continue to develop, and feel like we got even more beautiful panel breaking art. #Comics #PoliticalIntrigue

Kenyazero Used for #OwlHouseReadathon Raine: a clever or resourceful character and a confident shy character. 1mo
TieDyeDude I really enjoyed this series. I learned of it playing one of the Uncharted video games; it was a book that could be interacted with on a bookshelf. 1mo
Kenyazero @TieDyeDude now I'm going to have to replay Uncharted and find that! 1mo
TieDyeDude It was in Cassie's room in Uncharted 4. It must have been at the end of the game, there was a short sequence when you play as her. 1mo
Kenyazero @TieDyeDude then I'm in luck. Despite owning it for a long time, we haven't played 4 yet! I'll definitely look for this. How fun! 1mo

Alas, I‘m gonna bail on THE TYRANNY OF FAITH at 32%. It‘s the right book for a plot-driven reader, or for one who really connects with the characters, but it‘s the wrong book for me. I‘m bored and frustrated more often than I‘m entertained, and I feel like certain of Swan‘s storytelling decisions destroy the tension. If I had stronger emotions about these characters, I‘d probably have the opposite take. Since I don‘t, I‘m out. 😔

LiteraryinPA Sounds like you gave it ample time. 🤷🏻‍♀️ On to better things! 4mo
xicanti @LiteraryinLawrence it was also the sequel to a book I rather liked but didn‘t love. A pretty big chunk of the time, I approach a book like that and find the issues that kept me at a distance in the first volume are resolved in the second, but here the author doubled down on them. Sadness. 4mo

🎧I loved this book! Book 2 in a fantastic fantasy trilogy.

A mysterious illness, an unrequited love, more darkness, TEMPLARS! Darkness! What did this author leave out? Nothing!

Great narration! I wish I could have waited to read this cuz now I have to wait wait wait …

⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

Monday book mail. This was a Goldsboro pre-order that matches my February 2022 GSFF monthly subscription box of Justice of Kings.

Three stenciled edges, signed & numbered.

Need to add this to my TBR!

This 1956 novel could easily have been set any time between 2016 and 2021.

I am posting one book per day from my to-be-read collection. No description and providing no reason for wanting to read it, I just do. Some will be old, some will be new - don‘t judge me I have a lot of books.
Join the fun if you want. This is day 15.

Well, year started off strong with #booked2019 reading challenge but this fall my life took on a major plot twist and this was the only prompt I completed for the quarter. At least it was a fascinating ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ read about the Osage killings. I'm not a big non fic reader but this was palatable. Thanks for hosting @4thhouseontheleft @Cinfhen @BarbaraTheBibliophage !! Looking forward to #booked2020 !!

Cinfhen Hope 2020 brings you plenty of joy, happiness, peace and harmony ( and more reading time) 😘 5y
mrp27 @Cinfhen Thank you Cindy! I'm looking forward to a fresh start and lots more Litsy 'n reading. Happy New Year! 5y
BarbaraTheBibliophage Plot twists ... sigh ... sometimes it‘s like that. 😘 5y
