Wandering through fiction
My thoughts on books I've been reading recently. This isn't going to be literary criticism, but based on my likes and dislikes.
Currently reading
Mistborn: The Final Empire
All That I Am
Harry Potter and the Chamber of Secrets
Magi'i of Cyador
Night Moves
Enjoy the mix of crime and romance. Award winning musician moves to rural town, sparks fly with landscaper
Colors of Chaos
Enjoyed the links between this and [b:The Magic Engineer|185200|The Magic Engineer (The Saga of Recluce #3)|L.E. Modesitt Jr.|https://d.gr-assets.com/books/1390152205s/185200.jpg|1246810]. Good to see the amount of thought that went into discussing the complexities of trade and government. Much more to it than I remember from the first time I read it.
The Little Old Lady Who Broke All The Rules
Enjoyed this with the old people causing chaos. Frustrated by the number of unlikely occurrences
An Echo in the Bone
Too many storylines and has gone from mainly historical with a bit of weirdness to an awful lot of time travelling oddness
Equal Rites (Discworld #3)
Enjoyed rereading this. forgotten the power of headology and how sexism works in discworld. Witches books remain among my favourites in this world.
The Memory of Love
This made me really uncomfortable in parts - very graphic, nonromanticised sex scenes make for difficult reading especially when it's asentences dropped in with very little warning.Found the relationship between Elias and Safia v odd, and quite stalkerish.
Just didn't suit the mood I was in while listening to it and nearly became a dnf
The Book of Lost Things
Not sure what I made of this one. A lot of very adult themes despite the number of fairy tale adaptations in it. A pretty dark book in general.
