The Only Good Indians by Stephen Graham Jones
5.0
This is one of the craziest books I've ever read (in a good way). Great horror, I truly felt awful for all the characters in this book. I've wanted something truly frightening, and I found it. Looking forward to reading others.
The Ballad of Songbirds and Snakes by Suzanne Collins
3.0
Sorry. I loved the hunger games trilogy, so much.. Katniss was amazing and fierce. But this dude is an absolute incel dick and I hated him the entire time. Cringe. I loved having a prequel to explain some things, that aspect was great but God I was so sick of hearing Snow complain about how great he was the entire frigging book. Ugh.
Taltos by Anne Rice
4.0
I thought this book was marginally better than the second, although still bizarre. The best part is that the audiobook is narrated by Tim Curry.
Becoming Kin: An Indigenous Call to Unforgetting the Past and Reimagining Our Future by Patty Krawec
5.0
Everyone should read this book. I've been trying to learn as much as I can about indigenous history in Canada. This is a fantastic narrative concerning how the history of indigenous peoples fit into world history. (something I had never thought of before, unfortunately) Thank you for enlightening me.
Sensitive: The Hidden Power of the Highly Sensitive Person in a Loud, Fast, Too-Much World by Andre Sólo, Jenn Granneman
5.0
I think everyone should read this book, if you're not an HSP - you may know someone who is. I like how this book takes a scientific approach to those who are easily overstimulated in our busy modern world and gives some practical solutions.
