My spoiler saturated thoughts on the books I read
July 3, 2020 – July 4, 2020 Ok, I am quite happy again. I still find the whole demon that can happily hang out with its occupant a bit of a plot hole to the earlier two books, and I’m still sad that the narrative that I had been hoping for after book two didn’t …

June 25, 2020 – July 1, 2020 Wow. I had no idea that this book was be one of those that would alter how I view myself and eternity. The idea, the thesis of this book, that you start at simplicity, then move on to complexity, then to mature simplicity was so enlightening for me, …

July 1, 2020 – July 1, 2020 Yay I found another kid series I like! I’ve been trying to find books for my upcoming third grader, but I decided I couldn’t just trust random lists I found on Pinterest because some of them had “Island of the Blur Dolphins” which is still a disturbing book …
June 25, 2020 – June 29, 2020 That was an enjoyable read. He was pretty crazy sometimes and blabbed a lot of info dump on the world building, but is was fun to see what was going on. His planning and scheming was interesting to watch, and of course I was disappointed that him and …

June 22, 2020 – June 25, 2020 Sweet. I love this character. It took forever to get this book and I cycled through the sequels twice, so hopefully I’ll get them soon again.
June 21, 2020 – June 22, 2020 AHHHhhhhh…. NO! I WANT MORE!!!! MORE!!!! I loved it. Every part of it. Their personal struggle- MY struggle to figure out who the good guys were, concluding that the only good guys were the protagonists- because that’s how it works! I knew this was a book two. I …

June 16, 2020- June 21, 2020 What in the world? I wasn’t expecting that. I mean, from everything she said I thought that it was as was assumed, but then that happened. I’m going to have to reread this sometime to find that way she said and phrased things. I wanted to read this book …
June 11, 2020 – June 16, 2020 I made a mistake and washed my hair before bed. It was necessary, as it had been… longer than I can record in this record, but let’s say my scalp was being destroyed by inching. So here I am awake, instead of my new and insistent goal to …

June 5, 2020 – June 11, 2020 This book was awesome and I actually liked it much more than the first one! Maybe because I knew the world better, but I think it had more to do with her bitter attitude while in the last one Caz was just – well – broken. Not that …

May 24, 2020 – June 5, 2020 And THAT is how you finish a book! Crazy climax that you felt had to happen but wasn’t sure how with a ton of other junk that was “woah, wasn’t really seeing that coming” along with pulling in the deep philosophical insights of the protagonist with his own …
