Book Review: The Long Way to a Small, Angry Planet (The Wayfarers #1) by Becky Chambers

I've had this book sitting on my bookshelf, calling out to me with cosmic noise, since at least 2017, and now that I've finally picked it up, I'd like to ask myself: WHAT WERE YOU WAITING FOR, YOU FOOL?

I deserve a swift, jet-fueled kick to the hiney because this was nothing short of a wayfaring space opera delight! So fun! So inventive! It was escapism at its finest, imbuing me with the awed feeling of rushing through the stars with a motley crew of characters from various parts of the galaxy. I couldn't help but love them or their rundown clunker of a spaceship, the Wayfarer, which was giving Millennium Falcon vibes in the best way.

Chambers created a lavish, diverse world that was all about tunneling wormholes through space, found family, and interspecies cooperation. The narrative was more character-driven than action driven, but I preferred that. I think it's what gave the story its richness, its inventiveness. Part of what made it so fun is the detail the author paid to the characters and the species/places they hailed from, giving them all unique appearances, behaviors, relationships, and evolutionary space histories. I particularly loved that she wasn't afraid to play with gender norms or interspecies coupling, either. It added a futuristic otherworldliness to everything as well as underlined how human constructs are just that - constructs.

All of the characters were great, some quirkier and easier to love straight away than others, but even so, I can't declare a favorite because they all (Sissix, Rosemary, Ashby, Dr. Chef, Corbin, Jenks, Lovey, and Ohan) cemented themselves in my heart by the end. They're a crew, a family, and it's impossible to see them any other way.

Needless to say, I am SO looking forward to the rest of the series!

4/5 stars

Tagged by @jinxedwood for my favorite comfort movies except I barely rewatch or reread anything, not to mention I rarely see movies so this is more of a list of what movies I think about fondly?

1. P.s. I love you. The best romcom that has little com

2. Girls just wanna have fun

3. That romcom with Sarah Jessica Parker and there's a scene in one.of those restaurants that serves like 3 grapes on a plate? Is also a romcom. edit: Til there was you!!!!! Bless Ashlee bree

4. Lost Boys. The og (for me) oh...vampires are sexy

6. Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles. The first one. An unparalleled kids movie that didn't try to shelter kids and is still enjoyable as an adult. I will die on this hill. I saw this 13 times at the movie theater. I wrote a script where I played Michaelangelo. Don't you dare.

A) am I done yet I cannot remember any films right now

5) Billy Madison. Probably not so much these days but I can still quote 90% of this movie so I suppose it qualifies.

Ok! Tagging people who actually watch movies like @morningstargirl666 and maybe @carry-the-sky and maybe @purplesigebert and possibly @i have run out of tagging steam actually tagging @austennerdita2533 bc maybe she will know the sjp movie I'm talking about she lived in an apartment with a really nice courtyard

Be Nice

Happy Birthday to the lovely @austennerdita2533, sweet Ashlee who has been so beautifully kind to me. She makes my life quite lovely by simply existing so hopefully she enjoys this little trinket of love.

-

“I can’t freakin’ believe this,” Caroline groaned kicking the tire of the old beat up station wagon her human mother had passed on to her a few years back.

“I can,” Klaus retorted gruffly as he slammed the passenger door, “Bloody car is a piece of,” he paused interrupted by Caroline’s human pet.

“Be nice,” Stefan warned both powerful fae creatures from the back seat as he crawled out of the car long past annoyed with their sparring.

“Thank you,” Caroline said sharply to her best friend as he shut the door behind him while pointedly looking at Klaus.

“We’d be there by now if she,” Klaus looked directly to Caroline as he mimicked her accent, “Hadn’t said, ‘It’s better if we take the car.’ And you agreed.”

“I don’t sound like that,” Caroline complained as she popped open the boot open looking for the spare, “And we were all too drained from the last spell to just whoosh anywhere.”

“Whoosh,” Klaus and Stefan asked confusedly in unison.

“Yes! Now help me you Jacks,” she grumbled as she pulled the tire from the back getting ready to drop it and roll it to the damaged tire and repair it when it vanished.

“All better,” Klaus grinned as the spare tire reappeared in the boot and the flat repaired itself with a whip and flick of his fingers making Caroline grimace, “You’re welcome, Love.”

“I didn’t ask you to do that,” Caroline protested knowing that with every flick of his delicious fingers Klaus was losing his strength considering the blood loss.

Stefan took the moment to step in like a hen mother as he muttered to each of them, “Be nice,” looking from one distressed face to another.

“I have blood on my favorite shirt, in my hair, on my backseat,” Caroline listed as last nights rather murderous events crossed her mind.

“Not exactly the first time,” he grinned as he pushed the image of them having hate sex last week in the car while they waited for Stefan to get back from vetting an underling to their side.

Caroline shot him a glare as her body heated, “I’m sorry, what,” Stefan’s words sliced through the looks they gave one another.

“I didn’t mean to make it sound so salacious,” Klaus amended with a tilt of his head and a wink in her direction, “It’s the accent.”

“Ugh, it’s about five miles to town,” she sighed trying not to vent her frustration, sexual or otherwise at this precise moment, “After that I’m done with you.”

“Caroline,” Stefan cleared his throat after a long heated pause between Klaus and herself, “About that, Klaus, well he has to come. Your Dad asked to meet him.”

“I’d rather die,” Caroline protested as she tugged her hair into a ponytail throwing him the dirtiest look she could muster as his eyes roamed her body appreciatively.

“And yet, you’re as immortal as I am,” he retorted as he took a step closer as the air changed around them, this time Caroline’s powers surfacing as the wind blew that much harder.

“Care to test that,” she asserted as her arms drew up and Stefan took a giant step backwards and slid into the back of the car.

“I think you remember my endurance,” he teased pushing another thought into her mind, just when she reached her climax on his tongue, before she pushed back.

“Puh-lease,” she groaned despite the effect the memory had on her body forcing the image of her on her knees torturing him in the hotel shower into his thoughts.

Stefan stuck his head out of the window, “You two had sex,” he asked as Klaus growled deep in his throat, his neck growing as red as her cheeks.

“Keep up, Stefan,” Caroline uttered with malevolence as she kept her flaring green eyes on Klaus a duel both of their minds were keen on fighting.

“Yes, Stefan,” Klaus matched her tone as he pushed another dirty thought into her mind, one that had yet to transpire, “Do keep up.”

Caroline gasped as Stefan sat back down after he muttered, “I’ve never been so happy to know that I get to die someday.”

“Was that conjured or a premonition,” Caroline exclaimed crowding Klaus, walking him backwards until his boots hit her tire.

“In five miles you’ll know,” he promised with a wicked smirk before he slid passed her and sat himself on the passenger side waiting for her to get in.

Lightening shot through the sky as Caroline let one little one out, her powers caused sparks over her nails ruining the rest of her manicure. “‘In five miles you’ll know,’” she mimicked in his accent.

Book Review: Her Knight at the Museum by Bryn Donovan

Ladies, forget about kissing frogs when you can kiss a medieval sculpture and turn your perfect man from stone into a flesh-and-blood dreamboat! At least, that's what happens to Emily Porter, a recently divorced conservator at the Art Institute in Chicago. She's tasked with the restoration of a medieval English knight, only to discover after a weird dream and an even weirder succession of events, that he's a real man who's been cursed by an evil enchanter named Mordrain to be trapped in stone forever. Except, somehow, she has been able to bring him back to life with simple a press of her lips.

Sounds like a fairy tale, right?

With a flurry of complications mounting around them, however, from Griffin struggling to acclimate to the modern age, and Emily becoming a suspect in the sculpture's disappearance, their story is far from perfect yet all the more enchanting because of that. It's a happily ever after that comes after taking time, dropping defenses, and finding a way to believe in love again.

This was cute. Saccharine in a wholesome Night At the Museum meets Hallmark kind of way. I think if you can suspend belief enough and embrace the premise for what it is - silly - then you will have no problem enjoying this. Emily and Griffin are adorable, although somewhat instalovey, with him constantly raining down endearments and expressions that were common in his era. He was Quixotic in that way, a mixture of charming, chivalrous, and ridiculous. It made for a good laugh.

That said, I do wish the evil enchanter subplot would've been tied in better. It felt too simple and abrupt. Like an afterthought tacked on at the end. Other than that, I mostly enjoyed this for what it was: a light and gallant romance.

Many thanks to NetGalley and Berkley for the ARC in exchange for my review.

Book Review: Uglies (Uglies #1) by Scott Westerfield

Interesting YA dystopian concept where the world is divided into Uglies and Pretties and Tally, the sixteen-year-old main character, is denied the operation to become pretty and is instead tasked with finding and turning in her friend, Shay, for running away. How? By rooting her and the other dissenters out of a place called the Smoke. However, as she embarks on this journey and starts to learn about the world outside of New Pretty Town, she begins to understand that, perhaps, true beauty is much more than skin deep.

Even though the writing could be banal at times, I appreciated how this book put a lens over society's obsession with youth and beauty. I enjoyed speculating about a world in which superficiality had stretched too far, how it had corrupted not only faces but minds, too. As a character, Tally was relatable in a grating way. She'd been brainwashed by the society she lived in, reared to believe that she was nothing and no one until the day she became pretty, and so, her conflict over whether or not to betray the lovely people she met in the Smoke was understandable yet also taxing to my patience because she didn't seem to have much of a mind of her own. The romance between her and David was lukewarm as well. Mediocre at best.

There are compelling concepts in this story, many threads of thought to chew on and ruminate over, so I can see why it is popular, but its themes aren't as evocative or as resonant as other dystopian fiction I've read. It's no Hunger Games. However, I am intrigued enough that I'll probably continue with the rest of the series.

Book Review: A Touch of Darkness (Hades x Persephone Saga #1) by Scarlett St. Clair

This was a guilty pleasure-style modern retelling of Hades and Persephone. There wasn't anything inherently original or special about it, aside from the fact, I suppose, that Persephone was a reporter who couldn't do magic, but I think the story's clichéd simplicity is what made it a breeze to read. The beats of the plot were enjoyable, albeit easy to predict.

The tropes were familiar, too. Expected. Hades had an alpha male billionaire sensibility about him that gave him an air of experience as someone who had lived in the world and indulged in many vices, whereas Persephone was more sheltered, innocent, and longing for something different, having lived her childhood pressed under Demeter's green thumb. Their meeting, and eventual union, came tinged with bargains, betrayal, and back stabbing but also came imbued with growth and self-realization. The balance of that struck a sweet harmony that made their love story a joy to unravel.
