Doppelganger by Naomi Klein
I enjoyed the doppelganger lense, and it's insightful but didn't really offer me any new information. And it is quite depressing! - ⭐⭐⭐ 3/5 Stars
A Darker Shade of Magic (Shades of Magic #1) by V. E. Schwab
This was an old favourite but on a re-read it didn't hold up! Too much style and too little substance. ⭐⭐⭐ 3/5 Stars
I Hope This Finds You Well by Natalie Sue
I really related to Jolene's experience of anxiety but as a novel it never quite lived up to it's potential. - ⭐⭐⭐ 3/5 Stars
Last Summer at the Golden Hotel by Elyssa Friedland
Low stakes family drama makes an enjoyable audiobook - ⭐⭐⭐ 3/5 Stars
Then She Vanishes by Claire Douglas
A serviceable but forgettable mystery with no surprises - ⭐⭐⭐ 3/5 Stars
Foe by Iain Reid
A clever psychological drama with light sci-fi elements, but I wanted to like this more than I did. - 🪲🪲🪲 3/5 Beetles
The Ruby in the Smoke by Philip Pullman
Read for nostalgia and it’s still an entertaining, grown-up mystery thriller that doesn’t talk down to its audience - 3/5 Stars ⭐️⭐️⭐️
Weyward by Emilia Hart
Readable but rather miserable and message was muddy. It was not the story I thought it would be - ⭐ ⭐ ⭐ 3/5 Stars
Gardens of the Moon (Malazan Book of the Fallen #1) by Steven Erikson
I read it! I read it all, and I didn't hate it! - 🌕🌕🌕🌗🌑 3.5/5 Moons
White Teeth by Zadie Smith
A well told, often funny, Dickensian flavour exploration of immigrant life in the melting pot of 1970s-1990s London. This was a great audiobook but just not a genre that excites me. - ⭐⭐⭐ 3/5 Stars
