The Laws of the Skies

DID NOT FINISH: 18%

maybe it was the translation, but I really didn’t understand what’s going on most of the time? Short enough book, but not enough motivation to finish it.

This was… dark? Not great? Really not impressed with this. Don’t know how a book where orcas are the main characters could be so boring! :( The art was really pretty though.

Hmmmm this was alright. I was vibin’ with most of the book until the end. I enjoyed the descriptions of the food and drink, felt like I was in the small Italian town! Just didn’t really care for the main characters.

Another great installment! This one had a lot to live up to, since volume 5 is my new personal favorite in the series, and I’d say it holds up pretty well. This volume strays (pun unintended) away a bit from the cats and follows a music themed plot line, which is alright, but does make me wish we got to see more cats!!! Will always pick up the next book in this series, so I now await volume 7. :)

This was really sweet, I’ve never read a book with a gender fluid main character! I did feel that not all the characters felt flushed out, also TW for animal cruelty, made it REALLY hard to like one of the main characters.
