For September I only read 3 books but they were all five stars: Ninefox Gambit, The Jasmine Throne, and The Will to Battle (which was a carry over from August). These were also all immersion reads, so I think that's why I read fewer books.

That’s interesting, I tend to read more when I immersion read cause its slightly faster than my normal reading speed

I agree about A Sorceress Comes to Call. It's up there as one of my favourites from her!

Just all the things I love from her in one space!

A Sorceress Comes to Call is indeed weirdly cozy, but there's also headless horses and dead people, and it works 🤣 Also really intrigued by Haunt Sweet Home! My standouts of September were Hell of a Witch by Rachel Aaron and Thank You For Listening by Julia Whelan 🤩

I'm adding that new T. Kingfisher to my list of potential suggestions for my library to purchase. I've had very little reading momentum this year, but I want to rebuild it this month.

Same, I think I am starting off ok, and got myself to read and walk instead of nap this afternoon. So that feels like an accomplishment

Speaking of T. Kingfisher, I am currently reading Nettle and Bone! A Sorceress Comes to Call also sounds good! I read a lot of good books in September, including finally getting to Rhythm of War, which was nice. Glad the Vorkosigan books continue to be fun reads!

I'd say there's also another category of T. Kingfisher's works - her middle grade/YA stuff. Easily my favorite part of her work 😎 No romance (her romance sadly doesn't really work for me - glaring at you, third act conflict of Swordheart), and no horror, but still full of good banter, whimsy and humor. Chef's kiss, imo! ☺ My September reading has been aggressively meh, 3 star read after 3 star read 🥲with the exception of the Gilded duology by Marissa Meyer, which I started reading late in September. It has been such an unexpected delight! I have read all of the Meyer's other works (except her 2024 YA DnD contemporary romance release) and they have all been 3 stars for me, so picking this up on a whim and enjoying it so much is so much fun! 😁 I will probably finish it in the next few days or so

My reading momentum has been pretty low too, but that's just been this whole year for me. 😅 I've been in a kind of quiet lit-fic mood and have been able to find a few things that work for me, at least. I've got holds on both The Skin and Its Girl and Haunt Sweet Home, but the wait lists are long! Hopefully I'll get to those soon too.

🧙🏾‍♀🐎September was more quality than quantity for me as well. I also read 6 books, but found a couple new favorites. I want to bring my reading momentum higher to finish 2024 with. Hoping for the best.
