📚 August Reading Round-Up 📚
Definitely read some great books in August.
Finally started the Vorkosigan Saga! I’ve also been making my way through the Rivers of London series as well as the Queen’s Thief series.
- The Warrior’s Apprentice by Lois McMaster Bujold (fast-paced, delightful, emotional, great worldbuilding, slight Penric vibes)
- “The Mountains of Mourning” by Lois McMaster Bujold (lyrical, poignant, important themes)
- The Vor Game by Lois McMaster Bujold (great character development, love the characters and their relationships)
- The Stardust Thief by Chelsea Abdullah (poetic, engaging, love the characters and the worldbuilding and the themes)
- Moon Over Soho by Ben Aaronovitch (loved the themes and how Peter Grant’s identity impacted the plot, more sad but less stressful than Midnight Riot)
- Whispers Under Ground by Ben Aaronovitch (great worldbuilding and characters, a twisty plot, some great revelations)
- The Grief of Stones by Katherine Addison (Beautiful, a bit more quiet, highly enjoyable, loved the themes and the friendships)
- The King of Attolia by Megan Whalen Turner (Entertaining, fun, Costis my beloved)
- A Conspiracy of Kings by Megan Whalen Turner (Loved the worldbuilding and themes, Sophos my beloved, friendship, badass women)
- Divergent by Veronica Roth (a re-read, thoughtful and fun)
- Hunt the Stars by Jesse Mihalik (fun, MC is so caring, great worldbuilding and relationship development, thoughtful and sensitive depictions of trauma and PTSD)
- All Systems Red by Martha Wells (Delightful, unexpected, THE ENDING, the themes, Murderbot my beloved!!!!)
- A Kiss for Midwinter by Courtney Milan (cute, fun, all the feels)
- The Heiress Effect by Courtney Milan (Gripping, loved the relationship and the characters, great themes, very moving)
