Unfortunately DNF… high fantasy really isn’t my cup of tea, it doesnt matter how many female characters you’ve got, apparently.

ianatxt reviewed Spinning Silver by Naomi Novik
Review of 'Spinning Silver' on 'Goodreads'
5 stars
Found my new favourite book. What a delight. Amazing character work and worldbuilding. Beautifully written. Just the right amount of will-they-wont-they, even though that’s not the main point of the story. I listened to the audiobook on Audible and the narrator is also FANTASTIC. She really did give each character a different voice. Im absolutely in love with this story.
Review of "Summary of Jennette Mccurdy's I'm Glad My Mom Died" on 'Goodreads'
3 stars
[This was originally posted to Audible's page - I've listened to the audiobook for this one]
I see lots of complaints about the author’s performance for this audiobook. Is it sterile and lacking in nuance? Sure, but I think it also kind of fits the book. Can’t imagine Jennette McCurdy was thrilled in doing this. Her detached voice matches the emotional detachment one has when confronting a life of trauma. Hearing her voice breaks when her dawing revelation happens at the end breaks my heart. The writing is stiff and somewhat direct; once again something I would expect from someone who spent their whole life shutting up their own emotions for the benefit of others. It’s a poignant read that has the potential to spark a lot of relevant debate at the familial and community level. Jennette is glad her mom is dead and so am I, but I’m also …
