2021 Round-up + the Future
It’s time for my first ever year-end bookish round-up! For posterity, I’m going to gather cover art for all of the books I read in 2021 and break the list down by star ratings. At the end, maybe I’ll have some overall 2021 bookish or not thoughts and some mild, unreliable plans for 2022 reading. Let’s get STARTED! 5-star books Plus Assassin’s Apprentice and Royal Assassin, both by Robin Hobb I…

Assassin’s Apprentice by Robin Hobb
Click to see the StoryGraph page! On my second read, this is definitely still a 5-star book, but I did have a few things to point out that I didn’t notice/didn’t make a note of the first time around. Good things This is a debut? Holy crap. The characters are all unique and distinct; while some have similar personalities (Regal and his entourage basically all being super vile and sadistic…

In an Absent Dream by Seanan McGuire

1/5
I honestly don’t know how The Blade Itselfcame to be so highly recommended in the Reddit and Twitter bookspheres. It’s often described as “gritty, grimdark fantasy with biting humor and a tinge of hope,” but honestly, the only gritty thing about this was the sand-in-your-mouth feeling I got from the inconsistent…

The Bands of Mourning by Brandon Sanderson
Mistborn #6
Click here to see the Goodreads page.
The penultimate book of Mistborn Era 2 solved many of the complaints I had from The Alloy of Law (AL). Shadows of Self (SOS) started to address my concerns, but Bands of Mourningreally pulled everything together. That being said, despite its 500-page length, I found myself yearning for more context and worldly background. I’m hoping we’ll…

I am an IT Support person in-between jobs while moving. 2018 has been a rough year, but I've spent months working to improve my life. I have a temporary job (delivery) while I search for work in my field again. I have recently moved into an apartment, despite issues with my credit, and managed to...
I’m essentially doxing myself doing this, but I don’t care at present.
I am living paycheck-to-paycheck at present and cannot afford the accident from yesterday, its fallout (costs of even just appearing at court or my medical costs, to name a few), or even to recover my computer which has important medical and tax information on it that I might need to properly navigate this disaster.
Any assistance is deeply appreciated. Words of support are also appreciated.
I am currently unable to work for a day or two, as I am in far too much pain and the painkillers I need make me unsafe to work. I also kinda can’t even make it in, lol.Â
I will also be updating my moving sale for commissions. Due to my minor injuries, it will mostly focus on my writings at present.Â
