Since the ratings on the Bookwyrms don't impact authors' livelihoods, I feel comfortable getting more granular and using all the stars, so if you see a 3/5 rating on a book I say I liked, this is a rough breakdown of what I mean by my stars:
- ★☆☆☆☆ I was offended. I think this book has serious flaws.
- ★★☆☆☆ Not really my thing, and may have been a struggle.
- ★★★☆☆ Liked it, maybe even a lot. Might re-read.
- ★★★★☆ Loved this, and I want to talk about it.
- ★★★★★ I am obsessed. I may even be shaking right now.
As always, the text of my review is a much more accurate representation of my feelings.

@kingrat@sfba.club Sounds interesting...

@Sasu@bookrastinating.com Oh that does sound interesting. Is the resemblance of the graphic on the cover to a snowflake (of the snowflake writing method) coincidental, or intentional I wonder...

Another Hopeful Fool started reading Drake by Peter McLean
New bathtime book just dropped (not into the tub, thankfully).
Seems like pulpy fun, but coming into this series at the third book isn't really doing it justice. Correia tries to fill in any details you might have forgot, but without having read the previous entries there's just too much baggage to keep straight in your head as a first time reader.
Not going to leave a rating, because I'm sure I would be more invested if I'd read the previous two entries.

Another Hopeful Fool started reading Warbound: Book Three of the Grimnoir Chronicles by Larry Correia
Saved this from the library's pulp pile. I thought this would be a fun bit of trash, based on the cover art. Maybe I'm just that suggestible, but after reading a couple chapters I'm kind of into it! It's kind of good??? I'm so confused right now lol

This looks... incredible 👀
Another Hopeful Fool started reading Cloud Cuckoo Land by Anthony Doerr
Picked this up in a big bag of cheap books at my local library's Fall used book sale. On the outset it looks kind of chaotic, in a similar way to The Starless Sea -- where I'm not sure what the book is even about. But what little I've glimpsed has been super evocative, so I'm excited to find out!
