January 2024 books!
I had some vacation this month. I also had an entire week when I was stuck at home without internet due to the ice storm. So I read a lot, mostly very light, fluffy comfort read books.
What I read:
Nine Goblins by T. Kingfisher. A novella about war as experienced by goblins. As usual from a TK book, a little gory, a lot witty, with some fun characters.
The Graveyard Book by Neil Gaiman. I've read so little of Neil Gaiman's books and I really enjoyed this one. I thought it was quite inventive and I liked how the passing of time was framed.
Friends, Lovers, and the Big Terrible Thing by Matthew Perry. It's an odd experience reading a book written by a person who has died. He had a lot of mental health problems, and I'm so sad that the medical world failed him so much.
All Systems Red by Martha Wells (audiobook). I read the novella last year and have been wanting to read the whole series, but I had already forgotten details, hence the audiobook. It was a great way of seeing things through Murderbot's eyes. I just got the next book from the library, so that will be my next listen, I think.
Miss Buncle's Book by D.E. Stevenson. A very charming book about a woman who scandalized her hometown by writing a book about them. Reminded me a lot of L.M. Montgomery's short stories.
Lord of the Butterflies by Andrea Gibson. A book of poetry exploring love and family and gender. So much emotion packed into every poem. Truly lovely.
The Wee Free Men by Terry Pratchett. I've also not read much of Sir Terry's and everybody has recommended the Tiffany Aching series. It was a lot of fun and had some very unique characters.
Iron Flame by Rebecca Yarros. This is not high fantasy, but when the frozen world was coming down around me, this was exactly the kind of escape fiction I needed.
Weyward by Emilia Hart. Three stories woven into one about generations of women who are witches. There wasn't anything that really unique about the book, but it had great atmosphere.
An Unexpected Twist by Andy Borowitz. Not sure I should really count an 18 page essay as a book, but I enjoyed this perspective of the medical system from somebody experiencing complications.
Thank You for Listening by Julia Whelan. Okay, it mostly stretched credibility, but I enjoyed the banter between the love interests. And I especially liked the way the MC was dealing with her grandmother's dementia.
Georgie, All Along by Kate Clayborn. I enjoyed this one. I appreciated that while it was a "going home to the small town" trope, it also didn't paint that as solving all of the problems.
Upstream: Selected Essays by Mary Oliver. I started reading this last year and it took me to finish. Some of the essays were gorgeous, some felt unfinished, and others felt like book reports.
The Kiss Quotient by Helen Huang. I nearly DNF at 90% because I was so mad at the "chivalrous" macho possessive behavior of the male character. There was a lot of gender roles and conformity and casual (and not so casual) sexism throughout. Oh the other hand, the sex was plenty and pretty well described.
What I'm currently reading:
Cloud Cuckoo Land by Anthony Doerr. My sister recommended this. I'm about half way through and it's a tale interweaving people from the past and the future. It's at a point where it feels like bad things are going to start happening, so I'm a touch anxious, but it's been excellent so far.
Poverty. by America by Matthew Desmond (audiobook). I'm an hour in and it's utterly horrifying and gutting.
A Short History of Nearly Everything by Bill Bryson. It's a 20 year old book at this time and needs an update, but it certainly makes science understandable.
The Six: The Untold Story of America's First Women Astronauts by Loren Grush.
The Summer Tree by Guy Gavriel Key. I remember reading this in high school and really liking it (while also feeling dirty because there was some swearing and a sex scene in it). This time though? It's obvious he's channeling Tolkien, the writing is painfully stilted and the premise is weak and I've found out that it's a sort of King Arthur retelling, so I'm just not sure about it.
What I plan on reading next:
Emily Wilde's Map of the Underworld, Tom Lake (audiobook), and The Starless Sea are next on my list, I think.

WWW Wednesday!
Hello, hello! I hope you're all having a great week so far. It's Wednesday, so that means it's time for me to talk about all the amazing books I'm currently / have just finished / am about to start reading! #WWWWednesday

What have you just finished reading? What are you going to read next? I’m around 75% into this one and it’s just as quirky as the first book. I love Nix’s ability to set this series in the world we know and…

Happy Wednesday fellow book lovers and friends! I hope your February is off to a great start and is better than January if that month was not as great as you’d hoped it would be. So far this month is off to a great start with the exception of the weather which is mild one day and freezing the next! Reading wise my February is off to a somewhat slow start but hoping it will pick up as the month…

WWW Wednesday | January 22nd
WWW Wednesday was formerly hosted by Should be Reading and is now hosted by Taking on a World of Words. Understandably, my mood has been all over the place, and so has my reading. What are you currently reading? According to GoodReads, I’m still reading Goddess in the Machine by Lora Beth Johnson, but on StoryGraph, it’s under “paused,” a blessing of a feature. I do plan to finish my reread…

WWW Wednesday
1. What are you currently reading?
I’ve been listening to Braiding Sweetgrass by Robin Wall Kimmerer, which a beautiful book written by an indigenous ecologist, examining how we interact with nature. I’m also reading Kaikeyi by Vaishnavi Patel as a buddy read and a friend recommendation and The Halcyon Fairy Book by T. Kingfisher (which is a collection of weird fairy tales and her hilarious commentary).
2. What have you recently finished reading?
I did not read a lot of books in October – I’ve read a bunch of duds recently and it’s put me off of my reading streak. The most recent read was a reread of Deerskin by Robin McKinley (not my favorite book of hers).
3. What will you be reading next?
I got Project Hail Mary from the library and I’m hoping that it’s going to be a good one. I also got Sweet Like Jasmine, another friend recommendation.
