Four books that crashed and burned for me this month – all of them ARCs.
A Book of Meh Revelations: The Genesis of Misery by Neon Yang
A would-be-not nonbinary Messiah in a far-future empire protected by angelic mechas.
Sunday Souçons #16
A Wizard of Earthsea and Not Good For Maidens – lackluster wizardry and a singularly un-tempting Goblin Market!

I wanted so badly to love this, but I just don’t.
Does Not Shine: The Actual Star by Monica Byrne
I wanted to love this so badly, but I just didn’t.
Does Nothing New Until It’s Too Late: The Hand of the Sun King by J. T. Greathouse
