Oh and Horrorstor, I didn’t know about that book! Lol, I know his personality from him talking about his campy love of soldier of fortune novels in discussions for Geeks Guide to the Galaxy. I haven’t read any of his books still. I’m not sure it’s my sense of humor, but have always meant to. This sounds like a good place for me to start. I just read Sun Storm by Asa Larsson and was reminded of the words that store appropriates from around its country. That book was a bit unnerving but a good Swedish crime noir I think.
Hi Cathy. Happy belated birthday. The Thousand Autumns and Utopia Avenue are definitely connected. I can’t tell you how without spoiling anything but in the universe of many of Mitchell’s novels, there is often some character overlap. I loved Thousand Autumns and I also really liked Utopia Avenue though it wasn’t popular on booktube when it came out. He’s a good storyteller.
What a sensational channel handle, wow, brilliant you! I'll have to think about your thoughts on shorter forms, I'm a poet, so am really drawn to compression. I'll enjoy thinking about your contrary insight. I'm very ADHD, so tangents are great, & I really enjoy your very considered, appreciative, but analytical approach to book reviewing. I really look forward to following your bookish adventures.
I’ve read a few T Kingfisher books. “Of Blood and Bone” reminded me a bit of “Sabriel” by Garth Nix. “A Wizards Guide to Defensive Baking” was pretty funny. I like that term, what was it called “Baroque worrying”? I’ll have to listen again I think.
@@thegrimmreader3649 oh I was cleaning my garage and was thinking about a lot of what you said. I often listen to things several times because I have to write down books to remember.
Happy belated birthday!
I loved Malina - especially the second part and the ending are sublime. Enjoy xx
I’m glad to see you looking so happy and healthy.😊
