I finished the latest installment of the October Date boss by Seanan McGuire way too late last night.
This series has been with me long enough that it feels like coming home.

Jeg har lige læst Søren Hein Rasmussens Den sorte bog, som har været på min ønskede siden den kom ud i 2021. Hvis man er den mindste smule interesseret i racisme eller populære kultur i Danmark, så er den bestemt værd at bruge tid på. Bibliotekerne har den.

I had the pleasure of interviewing Hildur Knútsdóttir for PolCon last weekend, so I of course read her book The Night Guest in preparation for the interview.
I am not a horror fan but I was fascinated. It was like reading a train rack of someone's life.

May was a really good reading month for me. I liked everything that I read and I got to read some wonderful things. The graphic says 11 books, that's not true - I read 11 stories. Some of those short short-stories.

Review: I really liked Morgane as a character, she might be a bit brass and that gets her into trouble but she will admit that she is wrong and she knows what she likes and will go for it.

It's not often I get to read a stand-alone fantasy novel - and to have it be this good as well. That's really something.
My sister and I did a buddy read of 'The Witch who Trades with Death' by C.M. Alongi

I'm currently reading Black Thief for my reading circle. We met tomorrow and I'm only half way done, but I find that I don't want to rush it because I'm enjoying myself too much to want to leave our narrator behind. Even if he is a knave and a thief.
