Filed under: I wish I'd liked it better than I did
rameau's ramblings — feeling unhappy
Throne of the Crescent Moon - Saladin Ahmed

Things I liked:
• characters
• worldbuilding
• story

 

Things I didn't like:
• the prose

 

So that's that then. When the writing gets to your nerves, the characters start grating, the brilliant worldbuilding loses its shine and the story becomes one of those "why do I care again" tales.

 

I'd still recommend this to people wanting to read diverse fantasy, just not with the enthusiasm others have.

rameau's ramblings
The Bone Palace - Amanda Downum

"I don't like girls."

...

"Neither do I. But I like you."

This is either really sweet or offensive and I'm not sure I trust the author enough for it to be sweet.
