46. Now She Is Witch - Kirsty Logan
📚 Finished? ✅
This is a haunting piece of queer historical fiction about witches & otherness. I loved the story, but I really struggled with the chapters that had no punctuation. I know it was stream of consciousness, but my brain found it hard to navigate.

45. Labyrinth’s Heart - M. A. Carrick
📚 Finished? ✅
The conclusion to the Rook & Rose trilogy, and boy did it deliver! So many threads were wrapped up perfectly, and I LOVED the inclusion of Middle English. I’d happily read more books in this universe for sure. Very very good!

44. These Violent Delights - Chloe Gong
📚 Finished? Yep!
This is a historical fiction retelling of Romeo & Juliet set in 1920s Shanghai with a supernatural twist. It’s interesting, but there was something missing to truly hook me. It needed just a bit more oomph for me.

43. Days Of Shattered Faith - Adrian Tchaikovsky
📚 Finished? ✅
The 3rd in the Tyrant Philosophers fantasy series, this follows the Palleseen trying to gradually conquer a land through ‘diplomacy’ - and the people torn on both sides. It’s a tangled web, and I liked it. Also there’s a frog god 🐸

40. The Liar’s Knot - M. A. Carrick
📚 Finished? ✅
The 2nd in the Rook & Rose trilogy, and Ren is as mixed up as ever trying to balance 3 identities and solving the horrors in her city. The worldbuilding is A+, the characters are wonderful, but I needed more pace. Excited for the last book!

Speaking of Mythal, HELLO 👀
I can’t lie, I was expecting a more interesting design, but meeting this younger fragment of her in person was chilling. She has so much rage in her, so much ice. No wonder the bond between her and Solas is so tangled.

2025 Reread! The 5th in the Abhorsen series, this follows Lirael and her fight to finally stop the necromancer Chlorr of the Mask. This gave me an intriguing look into the wider world of the series, and I enjoyed it! It just needed more magic to grab me.

2025 Reread! The 4th in the Abhorsen series, this is a prequel origin story for one of the antagonists of the original trilogy. It was a delightful return to the world, but it didn’t grab me as much as the previous books did. It needed more oomph.

2025 Reread! The last book in the original Abhorsen trilogy, this packs a punch. Oh boy. I was wondering how it would all come together; the way it did was excellent. Hugely fond of some of the reveals. I came away with renewed affection for the trilogy.
