I love this #AuldLangSpine list from my match @rachelsbrittain ! The only one I‘ve already read is Sunrise on the Reaping. In January I‘m going to attempt to read 3- The Incandescent, as I already have it, Hemlock & Silver (Jan‘s #AuthorAMonth, how convenient!), and An Extraordinary Union as I can get it right away on Libby. I‘m making myself a StoryGraph challenge to keep reading the rest throughout the year.

Looking forward to diving in!

It had a touch of Kipling's influence. I thought so, anyway. I enjoyed it, but it didn't give me the warmth of The Railway Children. Thanks for choosing these books for us, @TheBookHippie #ChildrensClassicRead2025

This book was really good!! Actually a huge step up from Alloy of Law, which reading Sanderson‘s prologue makes sense. Fantastic story, move in a lot of fun Mistborn elements, and set up for a really great next book.

The Grief of Stones (The Cemeteries of Amalo 2), by Katherine Addison (2022)
⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️💫

Premise: A cleric who advocates on behalf of the dead inherits an apprentice just as he takes a case about the murder of an aristocrat.

Review: I was critical for the first book in this series for being diffuse. This was much the same, but it didn‘t bother me as much since I had a better sense of the world and the protagonist‘s job..This was very satisfying.

3✨ it reminded me of other stories I read. Going into another place to find someone they care about and they meet common creatures like a rat, but also discovering unique creatures. It was a pretty cute story. I found myself chuckling at quite a few spots.

good book

I haven't enjoyed this second book as much, sadly. The plot makes sense overall, but it is also SO convoluted, especially the last hour or so. It doesn't help that it also feels extremely rushed. Much of the book is Aliisza just fighting with the men to continue to work together, and Kaanyr being repetitively reluctant, on-again off off-again in terms of partnership. I really hope this last book is better.
