Slowly but surely! I'm enjoying this much more than Game of Thrones or something of similar length.

A note to authors: Teenagers/Young adults do not use "#"s or internet slang in daily conversations even if they're influencers. Please stop.

One of the characters names is "Catherine DeBurg". I am deceased.

If Little Women took me 2 years to read, I don't know why I think I can finish this unit in less time.

I rarely read book that I think should be savored, but this is definitely one.

This is one of those books that feels heartbreaking and like the main character has fully hit rock bottom.

The writing is beautiful. The author really captures the myth-aspect of the story. I was a bit scared going into this book because humans writing about romances with Gods could delve into fangirl levels. However, from my first impressions, I can tell that the witch and Loki do not have a great power difference. I also appreciate how Loki approaches the witch. So far, very impressed.

Louisa May Alcott is a feminist icon.

I'm trying so hard not to pass judgement because I'm reading this for a school assignment...but Mary Shelley has such "pick me girl" internalized misogyny and it's starting to grate on me.

Slowly but surely! I am loving this book, and it's perfect for small bites before bed.

I'm already a vegetarian but this is tightening my hold on the issue. Wow...

Katherin would be in an Old Socialists' Club, I love it.

This is a very good history of the inner workings of Hitler's government for people who ususally read fantasy.

Finally getting this book off of my TBR.

This book is single-handedly pulling me out of my reading slump, and I'm having a great time.

Dyscalculia strikes again. I just read chapter 28 because I reversed '227' and '272' for page numbers. 😪

I'm debating on whether to rate this book. It's impossible to put down, which is great for a nonfiction. I wish more of Dr. Kendi's prose made it into the book, as it is very heavy on presentation of existing data.

Also, at one point he calls the opposite of hypersexual asexual, which (as a person on the ace spectrum) I would have appreciated a distinction between the sexuality and the state of being. 😅

I absolutely love that this story is told from the perspective of a bard. I need more fantasies written in this style.

This took a bit to get into, but I'm really enjoying the world building. I think it's because we follow the character from such a young age. I love that it's a story being told to a bard.

Finally picked this one up again. It reads so quickly, I'm really enjoying it.
