One of the best books I've read this year is a SciFi called Cascade Failure by L M Sagas. It's sequel is actually out next week and I'm so excited for it!
If you liked Turton's latest, there's another Sourcebooks author you might enjoy: Brideau wrote a near future climate fiction novel that I loved called Adrift. It's a really interesting blend of genres - kind of speculative suspense/mystery set against climate impact backdrop? (Features amnesia, which I know some people hate/some love.)
Highlight: Asunder by Kerstin Hall (comes out in September I think?) and a disappointment is probably The Familiar. I didn’t dislike it, it was a 3.5 for me, but I was expecting a 5. :/
I feel you on burnout, I’ve been struggling with that myself. And I had a whole reading slump in June it wasn’t great. My fave books so far this year are Bride and Funny Story.
Only for the Week definitely deserves the hype. Bardugo I dipped in and back out not sure I'll read the set or not. I think I have Rebecca Roanhorse on hold and waiting at the library.
My best read this year has been The Six by Loren Grusch. It is a biography of the first six female astronauts at NASA.

I also still want to read the final 3 books in the Dandelion Dynasty. It is very daunting, but i think they're gonna be great
If you're going to have a fictional crush, it doesn't get better than Rome!
I was disappointed by The Last Murder At The End Of The World. I liked the sci-fi elements, but I want satisfied by the mystery

Appreciated the discussion on burnout at the end. ♥️♥️♥️
The ace sent of liars sounds so good!
I would love to see a retrospective of whether you got to all the books you were excited for in each year. Like a have you read it concept
This is a great idea! I'm making a playlist and it looks like I've done it for more than 5 years.
Loved the video. Two of my favorites this year were The Will of the Many and Dawn. Now I have even more books on my TBR! Thank you😊
Will of the Many is one I want to read! Glad you found some new things to try.
