The Wicked and the Willing

The plot was so slow, and yet the relationship between characters felt rushed. It exhausted me.

Amari et le Bureau des affaires surnaturelles

B.B. Alston

DID NOT FINISH: 14%

Franchement cool, mais pour un public de 10-14 ans, et c'est pas mon humeur actuelle.

Wrath Goddess Sing

got bored to death

God's Children Are Little Broken Things: Stories

Arinze Ifeakandu

DID NOT FINISH: 26%

This was good, but it made me find the limits of not being a native speaker - as soon as things deviate from the English I'm used to hearing/reading, I get very confused and tired. I want to revisit this, but need an easier start or a translated version.

Confusing and not in a good way.

Black-out

Connie Willis

15 pages in and it's very obvious that I'm not going to vibe with this book.

The Woman Who Owned the Shadows

Paula Gunn Allen

DID NOT FINISH: 12%

It wasn't bad, it was just not good enough for me to want to read this over other books.

A World Without Police

Geo Maher

DID NOT FINISH: 7%

Sir I picked up a book called A world without police, I know that the police isn't cool.

Got bored with the unending exposition of police crimes, checked reviews, looks like it's entirely like this with a few basic strategies and not a book about strategies. I'll pass.

Greg Grandin

DID NOT FINISH: 46%

Very very dense, for something I'm not that interested in. Got 200 pages in and realized I was still not into it.

The Age of Goodbyes

I don't get it
