Reading Roundup: August 2026
Only 3 novels read, but they were all really interesting and will stick with me!
Titus Groan (Gormenghast #1) by Mervyn Peake
🏰🏰🏰🏰 4/5 Castles - Like nothing I've read before, audio cannot do it justice and I must revisit it in print!
Flow My Tears, The Policeman Said by Philip K. Dick
⭐⭐⭐ 3/5 Stars - Exploring love in a dystopic police state, in a very PKD way.
Ubik by Philip K. Dick
🌟🌟🌟🌟🌟 5/5 - I really enjoyed my re-read, and I think I finally get it!

The Butcher’s Masquerade (Dungeon Crawler Carl #5) by Matt Dinniman
⭐⭐ 2/5 - Over-long, over -stuffed and finally wore out my interested in this series.
Dr. Bloodmoney, Or How We Got Along After the Bomb by Philip K. Dick
⭐⭐⭐ 3.5/5 Stars - Community in the nuclear wasteland: very, very weird with memorable characters.
The Gate of the Feral Gods (Dungeon Crawler Carl #4) by Matt Dinniman
⭐⭐⭐⭐ 4/5 Stars - I enjoyed this more than the previous two, but don't ask me to explain the plot.
