Sometimes I worry I am a harsh rater and then I read a book like this and I know there is a specific feeling that cements a book as FIVE STARS.🌟

A story where the witch wins and there is no need for a prince.🧙 My first review for this series of standalones was my slight disappointment that the witch was ultimately fulfilled by love. Here it's girl power.💫 #booksky #cozybook

This is what I mean when I say I want political intrigue, scheming, and sweeping motivations. This is a historical fantasy series set in turbulent mediaeval Ireland, the sequel series, era 2 if you will, of the Gael Song series.🇮🇪 #booksky #irish

This #scifi #thriller #book was WILD. Imagine working in an organisation that no one remembers. A division that deals with Unknowns with dangerous memetic properties. There are contagious ideas, which require containment just like any physical threat.

An ambitious series for fans of John Gwynne's The Shadow of the Gods.🛡️ It is an intriguing grimdark, Norse-inspired fantasy with a bloody, gritty, and action-heavy plot featuring murderous cults, longships, divine blades, and crumbling empires.⚔️

This was fun and what you can expect from T Kingfisher: tongue-in-cheek, managing to stay on the right line of cringe and swoon-worthy, and filled with cutting humour and tender moments.📚💜 #romantasy #booksky

He tosses his head and snorts at Eugene as if to say, About time. “Sorry, I was busy committing grand acts of sabotage,” Eugene says airily as he grabs a fistful of Max’s mane and swings onto his back. “Let’s go get our girl.”

My last five-star🌟 read. This combines the philosophical reflections of Suneater (Empire of Silence), the grittiness of Joe Abercrombie (First Law), and the clever snark of Patrick Rothfuss (The Name of the Wind). fanfiaddict.com/review-risin...

Even knowing the outcome of this, I was still kept on the edge of my seat and hoping for something else. This is both a raw and optimistic memoir providing an in-the-room (#Hamilton reference, what?) perspective that truly shows the effort and pressure of the condensed campaign.
