You're having a great year, Karol.

You can't always agree with other folks' thoughts on particular books.

Entering the realm of Sci Fi next with another new author for me, The Snow Queen by Joan D. Vinge

I agree with everything that's been said. Some of our Conservative (and I use that word loosely) provinces are now starting to ban books. I think it's disgusting. They don't want kids to be educated, free thinkers, exposed to the world and to differing ideas. They want to keep them uneducated and close-minded. Reading broadens your horizons, opens your mind, encourages thought.

Rogue Protocol by Martha Wells (Murderbots #3)

It was excellent!

Yay! Congrats Kristin and Jan!

Finished Fatale Compendium by Ed Brubaker which combines a complete series but it's 656 pages so I think that qualifies as a tome. 3.5 stars

14. A character driven novel. Fatale Compendium by Ed Brubaker Josephine is the character but it's so much more than that, but she influences everything and everyone. 3.5 stars
