funny lighthearted fast-paced

Nice and witty.
dark sad medium-paced

I really liked this. It's well written, and although sometimes the pacing feels off, it's a fantastic insight into Hornbacher's mind.

Beautiful. Queenie is a masterpiece about the intersection of race, consent, mental illness, and identity. Absolutely stunning and I would recommend it to anyone.

Piranesi is absolutely incredible. I can't give too much away but it's absolutely stunning and was well worth my time to read.
informative slow-paced

I read this as a kid and enjoyed it, and as an adult I absolutely hate it 🙃
