Still using the star system referenced last month.
- *Honor's Knight, Rachel Bach
- *Heaven's Queen, Rachel Bach
- The Sweetness at the Bottom of the Pie, Alan Bradley (reread)
- Cast in Shadow, *Michelle Sagara
- *Signal to Noise, Silvia Moreno-Garcia
Actual paper book, oh my. - Burndive, *Karin Lowachee
This was one of the worst ebook conversions I've seen in a long time. Chock full of OCR errors like something from bit-torrent or worse. And I got it from the library. Grrrr.
The story itself was good--like Eponine said, not as good as the first one but definitely enjoyable and carried the tale forward. But god was it excruciating to read with all the errors. - City of Heavenly Fire, Cassandra Clare
- *The Three-Body Problem, Liu Cixin
This book is highly acclaimed, but it didn't really grab me. - *Huntress, Malinda Lo
- Acceptance, Jeff VanderMeer
Another acclaimed book that didn't really work for me. I read all three of this trilogy, but they really never seemed to go anywhere. It was a Southern Gothic Environmental Horror book but never revealed what the horror actually was. That's probably the point, but I found it disappointing. - *Half-Resurrection Blues, Daniel Jose Older
