Bit late but here’s my September reading wrap up. Loved all of these but my fave here is definitely Dissolution by Nicholas Binge - very smart, well written sci-fi/thriller, highly recommend!

August reading done ✅
Only managed 3 books this month due to 2 of them being chunkies!
Weaveworld by Clive Barker was a re-read, read it decades ago and it certainly hasn’t lost its magic 🤌🏼
Goal 36/50
