Drive Your Plow Over the Bones of the Dead by Olga Tokarczuk

Nice little read. I didn't fully resonate with the main character, but I enjoyed the imagery and some of the philosophical musing. There's a passage about the heavenly sphere's influence on the soul that'll stick with me.

Battle Ground by Jim Butcher

This book rules. It's super clunky, but it's got the juice. I feel like I've been reading Butcher my whole life and these books are so special to me. They're cheesy, they're dated, but they've got heart where it counts. Strange to get so much rain in December

Peace Talks by Jim Butcher

Reread in preparation for Twelve Months next year. Enjoyed it much more the second time around, but it's still a really flawed book. It's padded. It's too short. Characters make huge choices that only make sense if you've read all the short stories. Still Dresden tho

I think I could pull this off, but should I?

One Piece: Skypiea Vols. 31, 32, 33 by Eiichiro Oda

Got literal chills at least three times while reading this. That scene at the end of the arc that sounds like a Beatles song? Perfection. And, the Davy Back game might be the funniest yet.

The Grace of Kings by Ken Liu

This book's got it all: schemes, romance, betrayal, war, and most importantly GIANT WEIRD ANIMALS. ARMORED NARWHALS TWICE THE SIZE OF A BLUE WHALE. DIRIGIBLE FALCONS WITH A TWENTY FOOT WINGSPAN. WHATEVER THE HELL MATA ZYNDU IS. Book rules; read it.

The Daughters' War by Christopher Buehlman

Buehlman delivers on the promised goblins, betrayal, and revenge, but I didn't expect such a touching and introspective piece. Constraining the scope to a single character is such a smart way to do a prequel, and getting more Galva was such a delight.

Simplicity: A Novel by Mattie Lubchansky

Mattie crushed it with this one. It's grimy dystopia blended with stunningly beautiful surrealism lovingly steeped in raw sexuality. This book made me want to fight a bear. This book made me want to fuck an elk.
