"I’ve stalled a bit on this one a the mid-way point. I like the ideas but I’m not quite gelling with the writing or story.
I’ll start another read and decide whether I’m going to push on and finish this one or not." — Jul 31, 2022 08:53AM

"Crossed Wires by Jeff Somers & Stephen Blackmore
This was a decent enough story. I think I liked the feel of Blackmoore's characters and magic a little better but neither have me bursting to rush out to buy the first books in either series as both feel like typical male written UF stuff. I might give Somer's Avery Cates series a go as the premise of that one sounds a lot more exciting.
3.5 stars." — Mar 22, 2018 07:51AM

"
The Stormlight Archive series is probably my favourite fantasy series of the lot. It has everything I want in a story. Good worldbuilding, cool magic, great characters, and a fast paced action packed plot that has a little bit of everything. Oathbrin

"Ugh....I'm making such slow progress! My big goal for 2021 is to try and get back into reading as I've slipped right out of the habit in the second half of 2020!" — Dec 31, 2020 09:19AM

“Thorne glared at him. "Whatever, Doctor. It's just, when Cress thought she was in love with me, she was actually in love with this other guy she'd made up in her head, who was brave and selfless and stuff. I mean, he was a real catch, so who could blame her? Even I liked that guy. I kind of wish I was that guy." He shrugged.
