Kamogawa Food Detectives by Hisashi Kashiwai, A Psalm for the Wild-Built by Becky Chambers, Night Call by Brenden Carlson (book 1 is a tad rough but he certainly improved writing skills in 2 & 3!), Dead Sience by S. A. Barnes, The Cautious Traveller's Guide to the Wastelands by Sarah Brooks

Damn, my kindle is about to give out on me and I was going to pick up a kobo to replace it...
Netgalley has really been making a lot of questionable choices recently..

I always ignore them, and whenever I turn a book over to read the description and only find quotes I find it genuinely frustrating. I've actually just put down some books instead of hunting for the description due to that!

Yeah that's why I've been really wanting to read this!!! Knowing how long it generally takes for UK editions to release though, my best bet will just likely be to order a US edition when it releases over there haha

Honestly, I get that! It did feel like quite a rushed end.
I wanted to see more from those 2 teens that went off towards the end - that side plot felt quite weak and very underdeveloped despite being a backbone of the ending.

Yeah when I popped in a few days ago no one from the club seemed to be working that day and the people on the till hadn't been told anything

I feel that xD I got at least 6 eARCs to read for Feb not including any book club books - or even just books from my owned TBR!

Would be the YA bookclub book for this month but you've not announced it coming back yet 🥲
Just finished up The Last Great Heir by Carina Finn though which was excellent, just about to start Pine by Francine Toon

Honestly if you liked iron widow I think it's best to wait for book 3 to release and see how that one is. Book 2 can be *very* easily summarised in a couple sentences so if book 3 changes it back to how it was like before that might be the way to do it.

I'm trying to keep this account to just positive reviews but because I've been so highly recommending Iron Widow to everyone I think I need to share my thoughts on #2..

Lmao the delete data buttons do nothing ffs of course.
I'll keep trying to wipe the reviews on there that I have, even if I have to do that manually. So the account will be around for a bit longer but there will be nothing new added to it.
