#quickreview of “Cry, Voidbringer” by Elaine Ho #leftunreadbooks #bindery #booksky
This book was a rollercoaster! There were many heartfelt moments, many wtf moments, and some points where I questioned what the hell was going on. The book ended VERY differently than I expected and seemed to set up a sequel? The lore took a little to catch up with, but it was really well done. Rated: Loved It

#quickreview of Dungeon Crawler Carl by Matt Dinniman for #booksky

I will probably not review each one, but will at least review the final book when I get through them all. I understand why this book has been hyped up and is getting adapted to different mediums.
Rated: Loved It Review: I didn’t know what to expect with a Lit RPG and things like stats and such being in a book, but it’s presented so naturally in this series. Didn’t realize I was getting into a series, but I’m hooked. Such a wild premise and very deep lore. Really excited to see where it goes.

#quickreview of Goddess From The Machine by Daniel Rodrigues-Martin #booksky
Rated: Loved It Review: This was an INCREDIBLE first entry into a series. I’ve not read anything from Daniel before and I was blown away. Great relevance to reality while keeping pretty far from any “direct” connections. But good handling of classism, racism, AI ethics, etc. Highly recommend this book!

#QuickReview of House of Frank by Kay Synclaire. #BookSky
Rated: Loved It Review: Wow. Just…wow. This book was fantastic. It had me smiling ear-to-ear and it wrecked me. Be patient with it, everything is explained eventually. A beautiful story of loss, pain, love, and found family.

#QuickReview of Reel by Kennedy Ryan #BookSky #RomanceSky #SpiceSky
Rating: Loved It Review: Amazing writing and story. So well done. Very high spice content with pretty vulgar language, so good to know if you’re sensitive to that. Very good romance novel, but definitely more than just that. Family drama and found family as well.

#QuickReview #Booksky #HungerGames
Review of “Sunrise on the Reaping” by Suzanne Collins. Rated “Loved It” Review: It’s incredible how different a book is when you’re rooting for the main character. This made me appreciate Haymitch’s character so much more. Dude’s story is devastating.

#QuickReview of “The Ballad of Songbirds and Snakes” by Suzanne Collins #booksky #hungergames
Review of “The Balaf of Songbirds and Snakes” by Suzanne Collins. Rated “Liked It” Review: It’s a really well written book, but the main character is a sociopath, so it’s hard to enjoy reading his internal dialogue and you don’t necessarily want him to succeed.

Absolutely loved “When Blood Meets Earth” by @authoreanoble.bsky.social this is the beginning of what looks like it will be an amazing series. #booksky #quickreview
Review of “When Blood Meets Earth” by E.A. Noble rated “Loved It”. I NEED the next book immediately. This book’s world building is insane and I loved Noble’s writing in general. Great political/social commentary that’s more nuanced than good versus evil.

Loved “She Steals Justice” by J. Clark (@jclarkwriting.bsky.social) #booksky #quickreviews
“She Steals Justice” by J. Clark rated “Loved It” with an explanation of: This is WAY more than a modern, Southern Robin Hood retelling and that kept it interesting. I don’t want to spoil things but there are some pretty big twists that change the trajectory of the story significantly. This was great and can’t wait for the next one!

Loved this series and highly recommend it! #booksky #thestonesky #nkjemisin #thebrokenearthtrilogy
Review of “The Stone Sky” by N.K. Jemisin. Rated “Loved It”. This book was a fantastic wrap up to the trilogy. It gave so much context of the history of everything that had happened and developed the storyline wonderfully. I’m happy with how it ended too. Highly recommend this series.

Heart Eyes was a good time! Loved the Josh Ruben cameo. #QuickReviews #HeartEyes
Review of the movie “Heart Eyes” rated “Liked It”. The movie poster is displayed which has the protagonist displayed which is wearing a mask covering their whole head with red glowing hearts where eyes should be with the words “Heart Eyes” underneath. Heart Eyes is a horror movie that absolutely does not take itself too seriously. It’s a little bit of a rom-com too. Very graphic violence, if you are or are not into that.
