The Way of Kings by Brandon Sanderson
5.0
Amazing! I enjoyed this book so much, from world building to climatic twists. I am so excited to read the next in the series
Untamed by Glennon Doyle

meh, there were some great points made but I found it just turned into a bitch fest about life. Maybe it's because I'm not religious so I found those part painful to get through. I think this book is a bit too reliant on current issues and I am sure it will fade away over time instead of inspire people to be better. Oh well it was short enough that I didn't feel like it was a total waste
Swimming in the Dark by Tomasz Jedrowski

It was wonderful.
At first I was a bit worried about how graphic it was but I realize how much that solidifies the feelings between the characters throughout the book. Very honest and I related so much to the words and feelings expressed throughout the book.
I told my partner "where was this book when I was growing up?", even though I have been out for many years, I really think this sort of literature would have made me feel more comfortable with myself sooner (as is expressed in the interview at the end!)
