This was super fun! Even better than expected, and I'm really blown away by the fact that this is translated, it reads as if it were originally written in English. So hats off to the translation work for a start!
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 second book in the Lifelike series - this was okay for me, but a bit of a struggle to get through at times.
The fabulous sequel to The Isle of Gods by Amie Kaufman.
A futuristic Pinocchio retelling with hilarious robots ... but a weird romance.
My review of book 5 in the Throne of Glass series - I'm rereading!
Book 4 in the Throne of Glass series. So much fun to revisit and reread ahead of finally finishing off this series!
Did not finish: I put this one down at 45%
The prequel to the Six Crimson Cranes duology by Elizabeth Lim - it was so good!
A Dracula retelling that really let me down and missed the mark. DNF at 60%.
