I mean it’s a classic my guy. The audiobook narrator was really monotone and flat with her delivery throughout which was a bummer. 

Im enjoying reading this series as part of the Books from My Past series. Some more questionable gender things happening in this book like the previous one. I’m listening to the audiobooks read by the author and the author is BAD audiobook narrator. We are pushing through the next one also read by the author to get back to Tim curry as the narrator. 

Bit of transphobia in this one…

This one was tough for me to follow at points. We switch character perspective too often and maybe if I have committed to reading it rather than listening I’d’ve not had to restart halfway through. 

Really enjoyed this short story! My favorite of the series so far. Solomon (second book/story in a row with a character named Solomon - Pachinko) on the ship was difficult and emotional to read by the end. I got attached to this character so quickly!

Se presentan las historias aquí como nuevo y que se hace a uno pensar pero son muchas de las cosas que uno ve en Facebook o infragram. No se, algunos tenían oraciones lindas y que me gustaron, pero en total me aburrí más que nada. Quizá vuelvo más tarde a decir más y corregiré los typos 

Loved! Loved! Loved!

This started interesting and then just dragged on and on. The writing style took some getting used to. The author uses words and phrases from the language of the region/country she is writing about which is always explained but breaks up the flow. 

I found myself forcing my way through to the end. I think I grew tired of how long winded her travels in each region were. This could be me but even when I heard something interesting, I’ve either forgotten it already or will very soon. 

Kudos out to the narrator of the audiobook for reading these long ass sentences and all these languages. I’d have been fighting for my life in the studio!

Loved! A great sequel to a series I am only just getting into. There are 7 (!!) more books plus all the short stories and novella I’m reading along the way. This book took a longer time to amp up than the first one. The authors took their time setting up characters and the stakes but when it ramped up (

really once everyone was on the ship together

) I was full speed ahead. Did a mix of reading/listening to this which sort of worked for me. Next one will need to be all read because I like to take in each word when I really like the book. Listening I can miss things. The narrator is phenomenal though!

Very curious about what’s to come in the series. These two can be considered a duology apparently so I’m curious to what they have cooked for the next one. Might be a couple books before I get to book 3 though. 

I still want to finish this but something about it never hooks me
