“I would not have you descend into your own dream. I would have you be a conscious citizen of this terrible and beautiful world.”
Review: Between the World and Me
Review: What Is The What
“The truth is I do not like hanging in there. I was born, I believe, to do more. Or perhaps it’s that I survived to do more,” Dave Eggers
Team Review: Turtles All The Way Down
“Anybody can look at you. It's quite rare to find someone who sees the same world you see.” John Green
Review: Red Rising
At times you can feel Brown trying to differentiate his world and his story from The Hunger Games, but I was never able to stop comparing the two.
November TBR
October was a decent reading month and November brings the much anticipated Oathbringer, among a few other picks!
Review: The Land of Stories
“The world will always choose convenience over reality. It’s easier to hate, blame, and fear than it is to understand. No one wants the truth; they want entertainment.”
Preparing for Oathbringer
In just two weeks, the third book of Brandon Sanderson’s The Stormlight Archive, Oathbringer, will be released to the world. It hasn’t been a long wait (just three years since Words of Radiance came out) but it still feels like it’s been too long.
Review: Wyrd Sisters
Wyrd Sisters is a delightful and spooky Halloween read that takes Discworld in a more political (but no less humorous) direction.
Review: Inda
I enjoyed every moment of this subtle and precise military fantasy, particularly because of its intelligent and complex characters.
Warbreaker Review
“War is far worse. At least where politics is going on, there are usually nice hors d’oeuvres.”
