City of What-Could-Have-Been: City of Stardust by Georgia Summers
It’s all vibes and pretty pastry with no filling.
It’s all vibes and pretty pastry with no filling.
Two Greek myth retellings, a scifi Aladdin, and a voyage that was damned from the start.
Gods carved into living bones; disappointing dragons; very bad military decisions; boring dryads; and letters I kept falling asleep reading.
Absolutely nothing about this book stood out for me.
Eight DNFs in one month feels like a lot.
One book I loved, with massive misogyny problems; one book I could barely stand, that had so much potential it didn’t live up to.
After nine DNFs in August, I’m relieved to only have four this month.
A new record – NINE DNFs this month.
Meep.
In which I finally lose my shit at the Wars of Light and Shadow series.
A number of my most anticipated reads of 2023 ended up DNF-ed, alas!
