Invisible Women: Data Bias in a World Designed for Men by Caroline Criado Pérez

I felt like a lot of what was talked about in this book were topics I already had previous knowledge of & I was just expanding my knowledge, which isn’t bad, I was just expecting it to be a more interesting read overall. Also some parts felt a little reductionist 

Howl's Moving Castle by Diana Wynne Jones

I wanted to read a book out my comfort zone and tbh this was a little too high fantasy for my personal taste which stopped me from being fully immersed in the plot, but I liked that it was a cosy winter read

this book was sooooo good wow. i love a sci-fi book with an interesting, thought-provoking concept & a good plot twist. introspective, reflective, & melancholic but also hopeful in a way

I learnt some interesting things here; some parts I would have liked to be expanded upon but I would still recommend the book 

Kamusari Tales Told at Night by Shion Miura

there was some questionable romance stuff in this book that didn’t need to be included, but I will miss reading about the folklore and setting of this village♥️

Desert Creatures by Kay Chronister

i think some parts of the book could’ve hit a little harder with a better writing style but this book was full of imagination & vivid imagery it was definitely an enjoyable read 

The Easy Life in Kamusari by Shion Miura
