Finished reading: Bloodmarked by Tracy Deonn 📚
I might love this even more than Legendborn, which I didn’t think was possible. Tracy Deonn goes broader and deeper and is my hero.

Finished reading: Amsterdam: A History of the World’s Most Liberal City by Russell Shorto 📚
This has been a great read while wandering Amsterdam. I have a much better understanding of the significance and uniqueness of the city, and have been able to attach more meaning to particular places, than I would have if I hadn’t read it. Highly recommend.
Finished reading: The Long Way to a Small, Angry Planet by Becky Chambers 📚
Happy to have read it. Turns out vibes are enough when you’ve got charming characters.
Finished reading: Piranesi by Susanna Clarke 📚
This one took me a while to get into. Before giving up, I hunted down a review. The review indicated that there was more to this than vestibules, halls, statues, and tides, so I stuck with it. I’m glad I did.
Finished reading: The Hate U Give by Angie Thomas 📚
I’m extremely late to this one. It’s excellent, of course. I love the way Angie Thomas shows that even in the face of tragedy and appalling oppression, there’s room for joy.
Finished reading: Hell Bent by Leigh Bardugo 📚
I love it so much. I left the hardcover at home but bought the ebook to read while I’m traveling, which meant I could highlight without feeling weird about it and I highlighted a ton of stuff.
Finished reading: The Mysterious Affair at Styles by Agatha Christie 📚
Poirot’s first case. A bit of homage to Doyle at the start, then on to the modes that come to define Christie’s work: a rogue’s gallery & a drawing room reveal.
