Finished Thornhedge by T. Kingfisher

Interesting reinterpretation, and it made me read a few Brothers Grimm tales, which was fun.

Finished Existential Physics by Sabine Hossenfelder

Finished The Armageddon Protocol by Dan Moren

Finished To Shape a Dragon's Breath by Moniquill Blackgoose

A very quiet novel. Interesting look at a (quasi) Native American culture. It mess up real history and science in a great and anachronistic way.

The integration of (quasi) German language with the (quasi) English culture was amusing to me. I hope the next book in the series uses even more archaic German words.

Finished The Tombs of Atuan by Ursula Le Guin

Finished The Dictionary of Lost Words by Pip Williams

Very captivating to me.

Finished The Windup Girl by Paolo Bacigalupi

Finished Emily Wilde's Map of the Otherlands by Heather Fawcett

Finished Harrow the Ninth by Tamsyn Muir

Amazing book. Incredibly written, inventive, funny and well plotted. It tries its best to annoy the reader(2nd person unreliable narrator, wonky timeline, massive contradictions to the first book, no explanations for anything ever), but enjoyed every minute of it.

Finished Brightfall by Jamie Lee Moyer

It is a beautiful novel about hardship, loss, hope, the forest (specifically Sherwood) and Robin Hood.

Gideon the Ninth by Tamsyn Muir

Very unique novel with a main character who is always the least informed person in the room. I really enjoyed the prose, characters and story, despite my usual dislike for skeletons.

Finished Troy by Stephen Fry

A very pleasant retelling of the story of Troy with great footnotes.

Finished Der Tod in Venedig by Thomas Mann

Finished Dead Lions by Mick Herron

Exciting and often funny. The ending of the village plot line was great.

Finished Starling House by Alix E. Harrow

Finished The Saint of Bright Doors by Vajra Chandrasekera

Very imaginative and well written novel. The description of the camp in the second part was stunning to me.

Finished The End of Everything: (Astrophysically Speaking) by @AstroKatie@mastodon.social

Enjoyed it as someone who took some QFT and GR lectures at uni (but no cosmology) and learned some new things. It is very grounded for a pop science physics book: There are no dubious metaphors to make the physics "easy" nor celebrations of total unproven theories, as it is commonplace in the genre.

I also quite enjoy the current podcast of the author with John Green on cosmology.

Finished A Wizard of Earthsea by Ursula Le Guin

Finished Hundert Jahre Einsamkeit (orig: Cien años de soledad) by Gabriel García Márquez

Finished The Terraformers by Annalee Newitz
