After nine DNFs in August, I’m relieved to only have four this month.

August DNFs
A new record – NINE DNFs this month.
Meep.
June DNFs
In which I finally lose my shit at the Wars of Light and Shadow series.
Witches Failing At Witchery: VenCo by Cherie Dimaline
Witches hunting down magical spoons in order to hex the patriarchy…did not live up to its promises.
October DNFs
Four books that crashed and burned for me this month – all of them ARCs.
Sunday Souçons #16
A Wizard of Earthsea and Not Good For Maidens – lackluster wizardry and a singularly un-tempting Goblin Market!
Sunday Soupçons #13
A troupe of actors out to triumph, a historical fantasy of dark family secrets, and a far-future queer noir!
…It’s Complicated: The Ballad of Perilous Graves by Alex Jennings
In which I have extremely mixed feelings.
An Enjoyable Letdown: The Atlas Six by Olivie Blake
An extremely readable dark-academia-fantasy that ultimately disappoints.
Too Many Side-Quests, Not Enough Epic: The Splinter King by Mike Brooks
A very readable but ultimately disappointing sequel.
