La Sed Oscura

Fernanda Aburto

DID NOT FINISH: 20%

Intenté darle varias oportunidades pero aunque el misterio en el corazón de la trama parecía intrigante, el estilo de escritura era muy tieso y redundante para mi gusto personal. 

Where Sleeping Girls Lie

Faridah Àbíké-Íyímídé

DID NOT FINISH: 11%

The prose didn't draw me in which in itself isn't an issue if I find the setting to be interesting, but I think I'm not the target for this type of dark academia book? so I didn't really find it interesting. 

Dark Rainbow: Queer Erotic Horror

Andrew Robertson

DID NOT FINISH: 56%

When it comes to anthologies you sort of expect a mixed bag with some great stories amid forgettable ones, but in this collection I found more of the latter than the former, which wasn't enough for me to be motivated enough to finish the rest. 

That being said I'll list the ones I did like and would recommend:

♢ Pip and Estella by Valerie Alexander

♢ Think Of Me by Lindsay King-Miller

The Poppy War

R.F. Kuang

DID NOT FINISH

I liked what I read but I'm putting it back on the shelf for now, since I keep seeing reviews saying how grim it is and honestly I'm not in the mood for any of that at the moment.
