Books I've read so far this year:

January:

The Cabin At The End Of The World by Paul Tremblay (7/10 ending could've sucked less)

Woolly by Ben Mezrich (0/10 for unnecessarily glazing Peter Thiel)

Who Goes There? by John W Campbell (8/10, loses points for animal death but gains then back for inspiring The Thing)

February:

The King In Yellow by Robert Chambers (7/10 for inventing the cognitohazard but loses points for being lofty and dated)

The Mayor of Noobtown by Ryan Rimmel (3/10 I only read it for the 372 Pages podcast and I hated every stat-dumping minute)

The Paleontologist by Luke Dumas (10/10 read it good god read it)

Extraction by Douglas Preston and Lincoln Child (8/10 creepy little novella from their Pendergast series)

The Summer War by Naomi Novik (7/10 I wish it was longer, losing points for stinky fae romance)

The Coward by Stephen Aryan (9/10 brilliant and entertaining and tasty)

Midnight Rooms by Donyae Coles (8/10 lovely Gothic novel but maybe a bit too by the books)

The Darkling Thrush by Josh Lanyon (6/10 what do you MEAN it's narrated by 2012 baby Max Miller?!!?! Cute gay fantasy mystery but it Lacks.)

Currently reading: Riptide by Preston and Child (the same two as above) it's okay so far, a bit dry.

Next up: Murder at Spindle Manor by Morgan Stang
