What I’m reading, September 2021

Rachel Neumeier’s blog quite often. I don’t know how she manages to post as often as she does! Sometimes she writes about what she’s reading, sometimes amusing things on the internet and sometimes what she’s working on. I love to know what other people love about books I love (or conversely books I hate) so I enjoyed her post about The Witness for the Dead by Katherine Addison and she just posted about paleoartists a topic I had never even thought about.

I enjoyed Witness for the Dead, but not as much as I adored The Goblin Emperor, which is probably to be expected.

I just finished Petty Treasons by Victoria Goddard (who I first heard about on Rachel’s blog, also probably not coincidentally as we seem to have very similar tastes in reading). I enjoyed it, but I also did not love it as much as my introduction to Victoria’s work, The Hands of the Emperor, which I adored as much as The Goblin Emperor. I’m waiting for the sequel to The Hands of the Emperor, out next year.

Now I’m reading A Psalm for the Wild-Built by Becky Chambers. I have just started, so I don’t know how I feel about it, but I’ve enjoyed her other books and it come highly recommended by a friend. (The series name, Monk and Robot, is so much easier to remember!)
