Piranesi is one of my all time favourite books. I could relate to the thought of being lost in this inner world of trauma, escaping to lonely, magnificent places while overanalyzing things in order to make sense of them and the necessity, sadness and hope of going back to real life again. Brilliant book.

I loved 'Piranesi'! The writing is gorgeous, the setting really 'magical' and interesting, and it was a beautiful literary read (even though I pretty much figured out what was going on early on lol.) My worst read was 'Hollow Places' by T. Kingfisher. I've only read 3 of her books, and enjoyed those, ('Nettle and Bone' and 'What Moves The Dead'.) However, the 'Hollow Places' started off well enough, but then I got very bored in the last half when they went on their adventure to this hollow place. It was SO repetitive, and the so-called humour was crass, juvenile and often said at inappropriate times. Just ugh 😞

One For My Enemy was a major disappointment for me. I was so excited with the hype and I'm a big Shakespeare fan (studied Renaissance lit in college), but it was just so all over the place. I felt the exact same way, that the relationships were like copy/paste, the magic system was purely to allow whatever needed to happen without any real rules, and just did not care about the characters at all. I really don't like when books have no real stakes and this was like the ultimate no-stakes book. I LOVED Piranesi though!! It's one of my top favorite modern books! However, I totally get it is not for everyone. My husband HATED it, he even ended up DNFing like 60% through.

I so appreciate how you can articulate what you disliked about a book, and still remain respectful of folks who might dig it, etc, so refreshing lol. 2023 gave me a lot of subpar reads, which I’m bummed about lol. The Navigating Fox just radiated untapped potential for me, as the premise was so cool sounding. But the story’s narrator just seemed super uninterested in his own plot, which wound up going nowhere and answering zero questions raised up until that point. So yeah, not a win for me. And then my biggest like “Omg, how is this so popular?” moment was with The Poppy War 😅 I’d heard so many great things, but it just felt like X-Men misery porn with a startlingly YA tone, considering the subject matter. And I couldn’t stand the MC’s inability to learn from her mistakes, or her almost never reaping consequences for them. 😅😅😅 It’s all subjective obv, but yeah, I’ll never get those hours back and I’m bummed 😂 here’s to a better 2024!

If there is a real reason they are enemies, then one of them isn't going to be likable. I just can't stand this trope.

Honestly I just added the Cosmere book you mentioned to my tbr, seems like it could be interesting! My worst this year were These Violent Delights, and Daughter of the Moon Goddess, with runner up House Witch 😅 These Violent Delights had *such* a good setting and premise, 1920s Shanghi with monsters and gangs, communism and capitalism, dissecting colonialism and complicated feelings about the mixing of East and West technologies and idealogies, but MAN did it fall flat. I didnt feel like I was *in* the world at all, there was almost no world building, even though she had such an amazing setting to work with. It felt like she hoped just the *idea* of the setting would carry you into the story, and as a result it just feels like she did almost no research into the complexities of the era and setting. And the *characters* oh my **gosh**, their contrived drama was SO apparent, the thing that drove them apart was OBVIOUSLY a misunderstanding, and I hate plots that are driven by a misunderstanding that can be fixed with one conversation 🙃. It was a lot of telling not showing; the author kept repeating how much they were attracted to each other, but I couldnt see it at all. Nothing they did convinced me they had feelings for each other. All together a very frustrating read. Daughter of the Moon Goddess is one I really really wanted to love, I love Asian inspired myth stories, but again this one just fell flat. The main girl just *let* things happen to her, she almost never took any independent action, and when she did it was only because she somehow had an instant affinity that let her be instantly good at archery, simply because her father (who she had never met) was good at it. And the very obvious love triangle was so dry and blasè. She obviously falls for the first guy but she's gonna go for the second, etc etc. I also just cant stand love triangles, let alone ones that have no spark in them. The main girl just had no spark either, nothing that made me root for her. The Girl Who Fell Beneath the Sea did a much better job with its source material; its not framed around the moon goddess story like Daughter of the Moon Goddess, but it's Asian myth inspired and has much more character development and world building. Just had to get all that off my chesr 😅 here's to good reading in 2024!
