More a series of scenes than an actual story, and one I didn't really get to grips with.

I find myself wanting to see the other side of this conversation more and more with each passing letter.

More of the same.

A solid adventure in a delightful magical world, even if the author is a little too obsessed with boobs.

Speculative fiction that's barely fiction at all, but a decent read nonetheless.

Drowning in a sea of detail.

Every Star Wars book I read feels weirdly childish.

A sad little book about two sad little girls. I honestly don't know what to make of it.

A great little romp with a surprisingly emotional ending.

Smaller and sadder than I thought it was going to be, but amazing nonetheless.

My first Culture book, and an amazing one at that.

July 14, 2024

Like a psychiatric Sliders, but with a surprisingly milquetoast ending.

More of the same John Green schtick, feels like The Fault in our Stars but with OCD instead of cancer.

Suddenly I understand that Simpsons episode so much better.

An amazing end to the Merchant Princes saga, and an excellent foundation for the future.

Starts strong, but quickly devolves into messy road-trip soup where things just happen

A classic for a reason.

Harry Potter crossed with 1984; a complete masterpiece.

More of the same (but the same's pretty good), the Merchant Princes series is a little long in the tooth but with an explosive cliffhanger it does give good reason to keep the series going.

February 24, 2024

Still my favourite book of all time. Harry Potter meets The Matrix meets far-future impossibility. Incredible. 

July 8, 2024

A whirlwind tour of a maddening labyrinth. Like every soft sci-fi book I read, I only wish the concepts were more rigorously explained.

February 24, 2024

What a weird genre.

August 14, 2024

I accidentally started book series at wrong book (this is #7), but now that I have all six prior books worth of context, I can say that this book is truly staggering in scope. An amazing sci-fi spy novel from start to finish.

February 8, 2024

I still don't quite get romance novels, but this one was pretty decent (and thankfully short).
