Currently Reading
- The Guncle by Steven Rowley – audiobook
- The Ten Thousand Doors of January by Alix E. Harrow – ebook
- A Gathering of Ravens (Grimnir, #1) by Scott Oden – physical book
I haven’t made much progress into Ravens or The Guncle yet but I hope to really dive into them both this weekend. I’m really liking what I’ve read so far though!
I started January last fall but I just couldn’t make myself get into it. However, I decided to pick it back up again a few days ago and am having a much better experience with it this second time around. It’s almost making me want to try The Invisible Life of Addie LaRue… Almost.
What did you recently finish reading?
- Graceling (Graceling Realm, #1) by Kristin Cashore – ebook
- Harvest of Sighs (Thornchapel, #3) by Sierra Simone – ebook
- Legendborn (Legendborn, #1) by Tracy Deonn – audiobook
I guess I’ll admit to having the controversial opinion that Legendborn was just alright to me. It didn’t amaze me like it has so many others. I have yet to decide if that was the fault of the audio narrator (who I really didn’t enjoy) or my own issues with the main character. However, I am going to continue with the series and will actually read a physical copy next time.
I also felt like Harvest was a little less exciting for me than the previous two books in the series, but still enjoyable. It was definitely a bumpy ride for the friend group and I hope the next book brings them a little more happy times than this one did.
Graceling was a surprise for me. I wasn’t expecting to enjoy it as much as I did, as older fantasy novels are not always that good. But this one was really enjoyable even if the ending felt a little rushed. I’ll definitely be continuing with the rest of the series.
What do you think you’ll read next?
- Covet (Crave, #3) by Tracy Wolff – physical book
- Libertie by Kaitlyn Greenidge – audiobook
- The Serpent’s Curse (The Last Magician, #3) by Lisa Maxwell – physical book

I really want to read The Guncle!!
Last week I finished The Guernsey Literary and Potato Peel Pie Society, Black Lace and The Secret Note.
I’m currently reading Two by Two, The Wicked Deep and rereading Clockwork Princess.
I’m going to be starting Rose Madder, Catwalk and Tangled Threat very soon.
I like to have a lot of books going at once these days. Happy reading!!

It took me a little bit to get into the book but I ended up enjoying it. I watched the movie and while I did like it I hated how they changed so much.

It’s been years since I read the book so I couldn’t really compare but I do hate it when that happens!

I ended up finishing the book and watching the movie the very next day so it was fresh in my mind.

I reallllly wanna read The Guncle. It sounds so fun! I started listening to The Storied Life of A.J. Fikry yesterday as a reread. I’m hoping listening to one of my fave books will help me get out of a funk.
