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!




2022 A YEAR OF BLACK AND NATIVE AMERICAN AUTHORS




★★★★
(4.5)
ADULT FICTION
DUOLOGY BOOK ONE
SCIENCE FICTION
Published 1993 - Own Ebook
The reason I didn't give this book five stars is the middle was a bit draggy, but the last third was phenomenal. I was elated that I had the sequel because I didn't want to stop reading!

GOODREADS
★★★★★
ADULT FICTION
DUOLOGY BOOK TWO
SCIENCE FICTION
Published 1998 - Own Ebook
This book was basically unputdownable.

★★
ADULT FICTION
GRAPHIC NOVEL
SCIENCE FICTION - FANTASY
Published 2020 - Hoopla Borrow
This graphic novel changed the entire feel of the story. The biggest thing I hated was the "adaptation" characterizing the young characters as foul-mouthed and disrespectful. They weren't like that in the original story.



ADULT FICTION
STANDALONE
SCIENCE FICTION - DYSTOPIAN
FANTASY?
Publishes November 8th 2022 - Edelweiss ARC
This story is odd, but I like odd. It's definitely Sci-Fi, but there is a hint of Fantasy. It's almost like Magical Realism, but the magic seems too real.
Magical Realism is when you can't tell if the magic is real or not. People label books like Practical Magic "Magical Realism," but it's not because the magic is portrayed as real.

ADULT FICTION
STANDALONE
FANTASY HORROR
