Review My 17 Book Challenge

[Moonshroom]

So... I'm extremely surprised by this.

I checked everything I both wanted to (but have yet not) read and have read and the total number is now 507 books. I didn't even know I had set my sights on that many!

---

"The War At Ellsmere" by Faith Erin Hicks - 5/5.

Lots of fives lately, I know, but they are all deserved.

"Zombies Calling" by Faith Erin Hicks - 4/5.

[Moonshroom]

"Wild Bird" by Diane Zahler - 5/5.

Pretty tough 5/5 to give! But my slowness was due to burnout rather than boredom, and I enjoyed this quite a bit.

"Homegrown Terror. The Oklahoma City Bombing" by Victoria Sherrow - 5/5.

[Moonshroom]

"Hate List" by Jennifer Brown - 5/5.

Wow, lots of 5/5 books lately !

Have you become any more lenient, or are they all genuinely that good ?

Good question, actually... on one hand, most have been graphic novels that did their part of looking awesome. And the novels entertained me deeply. The last one, I finished in two sittings.

But on the other hand... would they ALL keep their perfect scores under scrutiny? No, I really don't think so. But at the time, it felt right.

I'm burned out to the point of having abandoned two books very early, but this one is doing all the right things:

"Speak" by Laurie Halse Anderson - 4/5.

[Moonshroom]

"Being Miss Nobody" by Tamsin Winter - 5/5.

[Moonshroom]

"Girl (In Real Life)" by Tasmin Winter - 5/5.

"Obsessed: A Memoir of My Life with OCD" by Allison Britz- Cannot be graded / personal recommendation.
