MY GOODREADS REVIEW

ADULT FICTION

SCIENCE FICTION

COMPANION BOOK SERIES #4

Publishes April 20th 2021 - NetGalley

I would have preferred it if the story had found it's way back to the Wayfarer, but this was a good finish to the series. The first book still remains the strongest in my opinion. I would love to see a television series based on the first book with an extended storyline.

NONFICTION

WOMEN'S HISTORY

Published March 2nd 2021 - Edelweiss

This book was ticking all the right boxes for me until the author went on this basically off-topic, long meandering about numerous specific speakeasies and their menus, chefs, and a chef's strike. It was strange. The story is back on track again and I'm back to loving it. This is the women's hotel The Amazon, in The Bell Jar by Sylvia Plath, was based on. Plath lived there early in her career, as well as Joan Didion.

PAGES UNBOUND

This is a fabulous blog post, and yes, I think they should start calling YA titles Teen again, and stop pandering to the adult readers of YA, with more mature content, just to make extra profits. Children's publishing used to be more about good suitable content over profits. This would also solve a lot of the problems with graphic violence and sexual tension content being added in Middle Grade books to give YA displaced younger teens something to read.
