I enjoyed this, though I honestly wish there was more murder and slightly less spice! Hah!

Discovering your new favorite series is going from a trilogy to a tetralogy is always good news. Nona the Ninth picks up seemingly where Harrow left off, but I honestly wish I had reread Harrow another time before starting this one. I loved the story, and yet I found myself constantly wondering if I remembered where all the characters fit in with one another – this could be because Harrow the Ninth left me with so many questions about who is alive, who is dead, and who is somewhere in-between.

All I can hope for is that Alecto will give us more answers, but I'm happy to have met Nona along the way!

WHAT THE FRACK

This book brought me so much joy. It is sweet without being saccharine, inclusive on many different levels, and joyful while also touching on important issues like discrimination. I listened to the audiobook, and this is one of those instances where I think the performance really added to my overall enjoyment of the story. I want more from this world!

This is the most important parenting book I've read. It will give you the toolkits to have successful interactions with your kids, and also remove some of the guilt and stigma around wanting to be a whole person (and not just a “parent”).
