This was astonishing to read and very well done. I've always been a fan of Van Gogh's artwork and knew little bits and pieces about his life. But until now, I hadn't really engaged in depth with what we do know about his life and the challenges he faced. So this was really special to spend time with and feel like I could get a true glimpse of the man himself.
Okay, I've got to go 3 stars for this one. In short, this was a great story with a really interesting magic system, but was let down by its unnecessary length. I was tempted to DNF this early on, but was so curious about how the story would develop that I committed to it.
The fourth book in Stephen Fry's Great Mythology, which was fantastic.
The second book in the Lifelike series - this was okay for me, but a bit of a struggle to get through at times.
An amazing WWI historical fiction story from the one and only, Kate Quinn.
A hilarious and excellent retelling of Pride & Prejudice, but with dragons.
The fabulous sequel to The Isle of Gods by Amie Kaufman.
A very lengthy and tedious fantasy novel, alas.
A funny and page-turning crime mystery - set on a train! What more could you want?
A futuristic Pinocchio retelling with hilarious robots ... but a weird romance.
