Week finished reading Book Title Author Comments / notes
2024-W1 The Raven Boys Maggie Stiefvater Despite the insufferability of the average rich kid psyche, this book was actually a quite enjoyable romp through the Virginia countryside. Four boys, one of which is dead and pretending otherwise, and a kinda-not-really psychic girl try to wake up a ley line in search of a dead king and end up getting their Latin teacher trampled to death. Good times.
2024-W1 City of the Dead James Patterson and Mindy McGinnis It still counts if it was co-written by a woman, right?... This moid needs to retire. I feel bad for the trees that died to produce this pigslop. Beating the corpse of a series I loved when I was a teenager (that's over a decade ago) - this is Star Wars-tier series sprawl. As Filthy Frank would say, "it's time to stop."
2024-W2 The Dream Thieves Maggie Stiefvater One hundred white Mitsubishis in an empty field.
2024-W3 Strange the Dreamer and its sequel Muse of Nightmares Laini Taylor Not to go all Bigolas Dickolas on you, but you need to read this book. Don't look at any summaries or reviews or even the cover art for the paperback version (if that's what you get stuck with) - just jump in.
2024-W3 On the Clock: What Low-Wage Work Did to Me and How It Drives America Insane Emily Guendelsberger
2024-W4 Fourth Wing Rebecca Yarros
