TELL ME TUESDAY is a floating feature, depending on your reading style, where you tell us what you read last, what you are reading now, what you will be reading next from your tbr pile, and why. I am curious why people read what they read, so tell me!

MY GOODREADS REVIEW

ADULT FICTION

STANDALONE

SCIENCE FICTION

SOCIOPOLITICAL

This story is fabulous. It is Science Fiction in setting only, the story is strongly charater driven and it reads more like Literary Fiction. The main character is extremely introspective. It was a Netgalley ARC and It published June 1st.

RACE

This was sent to me by the publisher, unsolicited, and I also was approved on Edelweiss. It is the book I was referring to in my The Sunday Post when I said reviewers were rating books by POC authors one star on Goodreads for being "trendy". Yeah, can you believe that? It published today.

Neither happy, nor cooperative. Ha ha. That's my grumpy cat Atticus Fatticus.

This was the best we could do. That is the ARC I was sent. It was another unsolictied title. I also was approved on Netgalley. I like reading eARCs better. Heh. Here is the actual cover...

SCIFI / FANTASY

DYSTOPIAN

It is a strange and addicting book; more Fantasy than SciFi at this point, but it is definitely dystopic. It published June 27th. I love it!

And I am still slowly making my way through my fifth reading of Sorcerer's Stone. I am reading the illustrated edition I received for Christmas in 2015.

CENSORSHIP

It publishes August 8th. I have a couple of ARCs pubbing before that, but the publicist sent some pre-publication materials, so I figured I needed to get it read. Plus, it sounds similar to the Adult Fiction book I am reading now and I thought it would be interesting to read them back to back.
