Books read in March 2018
Apr. 1st, 2018 03:54 pmAs per last month, I'm not writing reviews or even mini-reviews, but just stating whether I'd recommend the book (yes/maybe/no), whether I decided not to finish it (DNF), whether it's a re-read, and whether I have any content warnings (cw). Please don't take the content warnings as definitive — most of them are done from memory and I may have forgotten some.
Recommend:
- Fangirl, Rainbow Rowell
- Digger, Ursula Vernon (re-read) (cw: child death, domestic abuse)
- Permutation City, Greg Egan (re-read) (cw: domestic violence, child neglect)
Maybe recommend:
- Waiting, Ha Jin (cw: rape, ablist slurs)
- Clockwork Boys (re-read) and The Wonder Engine, T Kingfisher
- Mr Ma And Son, Lao She translated by William Dolby (cw: racism)
- The Wrong Stars, Tim Pratt (cw: genocide, slavery, non-consensual body modification)
Wouldn’t recommend:
- Brother's Ruin (re-read) and Weaver's Lament, Emma Newman
- Penghulu, Suratman Markasan translated by Solehah Ishak (DNF)
- Prairie Fires, Caroline Fraser (cw: racism, genocide)
- Intercession, Isa Kamari
