#wakesiren #ovid #ovidresung #ninamaclaughlin Amazing, addictive writing. Such an important book, but major trigger warnings for rape and sexual assault.

I'm still plodding through the Hugos list, which is one reason I'm reading Binti. I love it so far! It has amazing, vibrant worldbuilding and a Star Trek vibe.

Really topical book. It's accessibly and entertainingly written. The prose is very list-like though, and that's where it loses something in my eyes. If you can handle the science though, this would be an excellent choice. #symphonyinc #roberthazen #review

1. Do things like DnD count? If not, Cluedo.
2. New Zealand for the Middle Earth stuff.
3. I am not doing reading goals so much any more.
4. Spirit Animals. I thought it was going to be too young, but it's still well-worth a read.
5. Which fictional universe would you like to adopt a child from? (My answer is Panem)

tournevis Of course DnD counts! 5y
Scochrane26 Very good question. And panem is a great answer because those kids are definitely traumatized. Maybe I‘d adopt a kid from the orphanages from Anne of green gables or Annie. (edited) 5y
gradcat Ooh, great question! As old as I am, I‘ve always understood that I‘m too immature to take of a child, so I have to pass on it. But I find it a very creative question, I must say. ♥️ 5y
coffees i read the first volume of spirit animals. i thought it was ok but definitely not for my age group. maybe it's because i like darker content ^^;;; oh man, that's a tough one! i can't think of any Orz 5y
katlyn447 Great question! I'm thinking I'd adopt Wayward Children universe. I love the idea of a ragtag group of children with extraordinary experiences finding commonality and acceptance like at Eleanor West's school 5y

@PickwickPlockPlock Thanks for the tag!

❤ Wales, UK

? I do a mixture of library use, Kindle Unlimited and buying print books
? Single
? She/her
? It's a nickname I use online a lot. I came up with it when I did NaNoWriMo for the first time, because part of the logo and aesthetic of that is "viking" and I did NaNo in my pyjamas mostly. So, pyjamaviking.

*I received this free of charge in exchange for an honest review*

This is a great pick! It's a non-fiction about the author's time as a submariner on a nuclear submarine during the Cold War. It's very readable and so informative. It's an enjoyable read and written really accessibly.

It's not for the faint-hearted though as there are graphic mentions of sex and bodily substances of all kinds. There is also a lot of bad language.

Not the book for me. If you love fantasy schools and you're looking for something that's on the younger end of YA, you'd like this. #queenofblood #fantasy
