The Gate of the Feral Gods

Wrote a review for

After a slow 3rd book in the series, this 4th installment feels like a return to form and a breath of fresh air. I still feel like there was too much minutiae, and everything moved much too quickly to take it all in. Although, I really enjoyed the pacing and overall tone of this one. You can tell that things are really only just now getting started, and Carl, Donut, and the other crawlers are in for much, much worse. Overall, I really enjoyed this one and will reread the series at some point to pick up on other things I might have missed.

The Dungeon Anarchist's Cookbook

Wrote a review for

This Dungeon Crawler book was a bit more of a slog than the first two. It felt clunky and convoluted in a way that the first two weren't. However, I am still enjoying the series. The first two were fantastic, and I'm confident the next three will keep me entertained.

My advice is to just power through and try not to think about all the minutiae while reading.

Everything Is Tuberculosis: The History and Persistence of Our Deadliest Infection

Wrote a review for

As a huge John Green fan and a nerd fighter, I'm not sure why I put this one off for so long. It was heartbreaking and frustrating, but it also left me wanting to do more and learn more rather than feeling utterly hopeless.

John Green narrates this beautifully, and you can absolutely hear how important this book is to him. He makes you lean in and want to care as much as he does. He also explains why this topic is so close to his heart. In the end, you really start to get that everything really is TB.

John also lists a variety of books for further reading
