A little delayed because I got a bout of covid right at the end of March (don’t get covid, covid sucks). Lots of books this month, though a lot more mehs then I think I usually read in a month. Hopefully my April reads will be better. I’m experimenting with adding a section of highly anticipated books for the upcoming month (April). I like the idea of making dedicated Anticipated __ book lists but I never have the energy to format one together so this seems like a good compromise for me.
Books Read:
The Way Spring Arrives edited by Yu Chen et al – 4/5
- excellent collection of translated shorts stories and essays about CN<->EN translation
A Prayer for the Crown-Shy by Becky Chambers – 5/5
- somehow Becky Chambers books always make me cry
Fevered Star by Rebecca Roanhorse – 4/5
- pacing felt a little messy and suffers from 2nd book syndrome, but oh man the setup for book three
Blood and Moonlight by Erin Beaty – 3.5/5
- a solid YA fantasy murder mystery thriller
Prince of the Sorrows by Kellen Graves – 3.5/5
- m/m fae romance! with academia, libraries, and court intrigue
