Just cleared another book - Memories in the Drift by Melissa Payne. An interesting premise and a good portrayal of a main character with no short term memory. However, the book could have been edited better. While the same memory might play through the main character’s mind repeatedly, I didn’t need to read them repeatedly. I received this book as a giveaway in exchange for my honest review. Worth reading with the above caveat. 3 stars

Just cleared another book - The Snow Child by Eowyn Ivey. This is a beautifully written book. The setting comes to life. The characters are well-crafted and perfect in their imperfections. “We are allowed to do that, are we not Mabel? To invent our own endings and choose joy over sorrow?” I just felt a bit disconnected towards the end. Definitely worth reading! 4.5 stars
