My least favorite volume perhaps because it wasn't actually a volume. A collection of short stories that had taken place prior in the timeline, this was kind of a drag for me. Some were interesting, others made me want to pull my hair out they were so dull.

This is everything I could have wanted and more. Gods from multiple pantheons being reborn into modern bodies? There was no way I wasn't gonna love this. The characters are all fascinating and I love the bit of mystery that we have going on. My only gripe is that they killed

Luci

because I was super attracted to her lmao

Not my favorite of Shakespeare's comedies but still very good overall.

Another fantastic comedy by Shakespeare! Bit odd with the inclusion of literal gods towards the end when there was no hint of that elsewhere in the play but still thoroughly enjoyable. Similar to Twelfth Night with the gender swap and the witty fool, so everything I love in his comedies was present here.

Hamlet has never been my favorite of Shakespeare’s tragedies but it’s still incredible.

The freak quick is slowly coming together PLUS we get to see Oikawa... that alone makes it a 5/5 in my book LMAO.

A Golden Fury by Samantha Cohoe was truly a delight to read. This fast paced historical fiction dragged me out of the reading slump that I've been in since March (yes you read that right... MARCH!) I loved our protagonist Thea, and how fully fleshed out the world was in this novel. The magical aspect was backed in so much science that only added to the sense of realism. Plus I'm a sucker for anything set in the French Revolution. I had a few issues with some of the dialogue which prevented it from being a five star read though. Overall, highly recommend this!
