I hadn’t heard of this book before until I was searching for books narrated by Bahni Turpin (one of my fave narrators!) and this popped up. It sounded intriguing…and it was! It was a weird but fascinating read, unlike anything I’ve ever read before. I never read Annihilation, but I did see the movie, and it was also weird AF but also interesting and unusual. I wasn’t a huge fan of the writing style, but the premise is so unique […]

I didn’t care all that much about Hazel and James or Aubrey and […]

  This was such a magical storyline that I couldn’t help but love it because it’s unlike anything I’ve ever read before. The water horses, capaill uisce (sounds like cap-pull ish-kuh), are basically kelpies. I’ve never read a story about kelpies before, and the idea of a deadly man-eating water horse fascinates me. Taming and racing them adds to that! I freaking loved Puck!! She was fiery and brave, a bit petulant at times, but compassionate and outspoken. Her and I would totally […]
