brilliant

Revisado: 11-04-23

smart, funny, insightful, and rings truer than the fantasies we have accepted as popular founding mythology.

ignore the bad reviews

Revisado: 10-22-23

they’re just trolls that clearly never read or listened to the book. but you should. and make your own opinions from that instead.

i’ve never been a 14 year old girl but

Revisado: 10-07-23

these characters don’t read as the appropriate age they’re supposed to be in the story. it wasn’t until the end that i thought maybe if it was an older mona writing a memoir the tone would be align more with the story, but it was distracting. if she didn’t KEEP saying she was only 14 over and over i’d’ve been able to ignore it and write her off as 24. but no, the author wants you to know this is very much a 14 year old wizard. actually, i’m still annoyed and just dropped it another star

collection of failures and warnings

Revisado: 09-01-23

illustrating they come in all shapes and sizes but ultimately want the same thing. i didn’t mind the jumping around bit, they’re more like historical vingettes than a deep study into any of the people discussed. overall enjoyed

sharp intakes of breath

Revisado: 07-03-23

i love this story. i am thankful for these novels. but one of the two narrators was hard to handle at times. one point, she took such a sharp, quick breath i thought something dramatic was about to happen, but it was just her breathing. it was weird, and jolting and don’t even remember what the passage was about. i thought maybe i was being finicky about it, but the male narrator does not have the same issue.

-2. moo. i mean boo

Revisado: 11-17-22

there is a background character in the story that is an assault survivor named annabelle bovine. everything just kinda turned into white noise after that… -2 stars for a choice so distracting it took me out of the story completely and was left trying to figure out if it was supposed be some sort of weird joke at the expense of the otherwise more or less voiceless character.

background noises

all the high pitches and whirrs make me physically nauseous and want to vomit. if you’re sound sensitive this is a nightmare

last 2 chapters are awful

Revisado: 08-02-21

imagine my disappointment when i reached chapter 12 and it was the same narrator of the previous chapter, which was literally. literally. physically painful. NO REASON TO SHOUT, I HAVE HEADPHONES ON.

idk if it was worth suffering thru the last bit. even with the sound turned down her raised voice makes it difficult to listen to.
