Historia
Having traveled the width of the galaxy to unearth details of its own murderous transgressions, as well as those of the GrayCris Corporation, Murderbot is heading home to help Dr. Mensah - its former owner (protector? friend?) - submit evidence that could prevent GrayCris from destroying more colonists in its never-ending quest for profit. But who's going to believe a SecUnit gone rogue? And what will become of it when it's caught?

You simply can't go wrong with any of these wonderful stories. I look forward to whatever adventure is next in store for our favorite security consultant.

Historia
After the old gods warred and drove themselves to extinction, the cataclysm of their fall shattered the land of Vigrio. Now, power-hungry jarls carve out petty kingdoms, and monsters stalk the shadow-haunted woods and mountains. A world where the bones of the dead gods still hold great power, promising fame, and fortune for those brave - or desperate - enough to seek them out. As whispers of war echo over the plains and across the fjords, fate follows the footsteps of three people. All three will shape the fate of the world, as it once more teeters on the edge of chaos.

Bloodsworn! With me!

This was a book club pick, one I wouldn't have chosen on my own. I'm so glad it was suggested. I loved every chapter. wanting each one to continue on so I could spend more time with that character, but also hurry and end so I could catch up with the next. Some of the twists I saw coming, otherwise gobsmacked me. this is a pulse pounding adventure and I can't wait to read the next one in the series.

Historia
Civilization has fallen. The solar system is blanketed with the automated weapons of ancient wars, engineered plagues, hazardous waste, rogue AI, monsters from outside our dimension, artificial disasters, and nuclear climate change. Every moment of life on Earth is a brutal fight for survival. The people of Sol carry on, but hope is at a premium. They need something more. Someone with a plan, a savior, a hero. What they get is Lily.

Unique story, inventive plot and characters you really root for.
Revisado: 02-01-24
This is a unique story that is very good, but could have been great. So many fantastic characters. A truly different heroine. Lovely found family. The performance was stellar. It was also unnecessarily long. By the time I reached the end I felt relief. That said if I found out there was a sequel, centered on Enos, I'd buy it instantly.

Brilliant ending
Revisado: 09-04-23
I wasn't sure where this story was going when it began, but it's a short read and the ending is just so brilliantly crafted. Very much worth your time.

Historia
In a sprawling mansion filled with peculiar treasures, January Scaller is a curiosity herself. As the ward of the wealthy Mr. Locke, she feels little different from the artifacts that decorate the halls: carefully maintained, largely ignored, and utterly out of place. Then she finds a strange book. A book that carries the scent of other worlds and tells a tale of secret doors, of love, adventure, and danger. Each page turn reveals impossible truths about the world, and January discovers a story increasingly entwined with her own.

Another beautifully written tale filled with darkness and despair, but also love, light and triumph. Alix E. Harrow has such an amazing gift and uses words to craft worlds that immediately spring to life in your imagination, fully realized in perfect clarity. Her world building is exceptional. Should you like stories of women trying to find and claim their power in a world determined to prevent them from claiming it, then this is the book for you. The narration is perfectly suited to the story. Allow yourself to be swept away, you won't regret it.

Historia
When COVID-19 sweeps through New York City, Jamie Gray is stuck as a dead-end driver for food-delivery apps. That is, until Jamie makes a delivery to an old acquaintance, Tom, who works at what he calls “an animal rights organization”. Tom’s team needs a last-minute grunt to handle things on their next field visit. Jamie, eager to do anything, immediately signs on. What Tom doesn't tell Jamie is that the animals his team cares for are not here on Earth. Not our Earth, at at least. In an alternate dimension, dinosaur-like creatures named Kaiju roam a warm and human-free world.

I found myself struggling to immerse myself in a book, but this story was perfect. Funny, clever and just joyful in a slightly twisted way. I needed this pick-me-up.

I loved this book. I was so invested in Laura's self discovery. Great romance, but also a good story about the way we believe a narrative about our history and the way that impacts our present. I loved the narrator as well and will look for more of her work.

Historia
In 1893, there's no such thing as witches. There used to be, in the wild, dark days before the burnings began, but now witching is nothing but tidy charms and nursery rhymes. If the modern woman wants any measure of power, she must find it at the ballot box. But when the Eastwood sisters - James Juniper, Agnes Amaranth, and Beatrice Belladonna - join the suffragists of New Salem, they begin to pursue the forgotten words and ways that might turn the women's movement into the witch's movement.

This is an absolutely beautifully written book. The prose is just lovely. The skill of mixing actual history and intertwining it with an alternate unfamiliar world is very well executed. I was enthralled all the way to the end.

Historia
January 1946: London is emerging from the shadow of the Second World War, and writer Juliet Ashton is looking for her next book subject. Who could imagine that she would find it in a letter from a man she’s never met, a native of the island of Guernsey, who has come across her name written inside a book by Charles Lamb.... As Juliet and her new correspondent exchange letters, Juliet is drawn into the world of this man and his friends - and what a wonderfully eccentric world it is.

This is a delightful story. I'm not usually a fan of novels written as letters, but it works wonderfully in this book. I'm only sad it's over because like Juliette, I wanted to stay in Guernsey.
