Chinese Fairy Tales and Legends: A Gift Edition of 73 Enchanting Chinese Folk Stories and Fairy Tales
Frederick H. Martens, Richard Wilhelm
DID NOT FINISH
Lost interest
God I love Tim Curry but I could not dig his narration. Will try again with physical copy.
Incredibly interesting but I struggle to read on my phone. Sorry digital copy.
Failure Is Not an Option: Mission Control from Mercury to Apollo 13 and Beyond

Not the right book for me. I was hoping for something similar to Moon Dust that I read a few years ago, but this wasn’t as interesting to me.
I don’t think I enjoyed it in audio. I think if I found a paperback I’d give it another shot though
Hex Life: Wicked New Tales of Witchery

I just don’t enjoy this genre (urban fantasy) anymore but got the audiobook free so I thought I’d give it a go. Alas it isn’t for me.

I struggle with Sci-fi. This didn’t engage me. I wasn’t interested in the “game” aspect. It was a lot of waffle. Too many things started without any semblance of them moving forward. Characters didn’t engage as you don’t spend enough time with any to “feel” for them.
Further to this was finding out how much the author align a himself with the Chinese government which has policies I don’t agree with, and I found them showing through in the work.

The book is a collection of previously released articles meant to come together as some sort of journal on nature. There are some good pieces in the first few months. Most of it is so boring I can’t even explain. Not to mention the fact that the articles don’t fit well together. They don’t have a narrative or theme which is what you’d expect from a bool of this structure.
