a woman‘s yearning for more. is love truly all there is? beautiful novel about a woman who gave up. a tale about how nothingness saves lives.

industrial blues. boring, writing style was ok but I struggled to get through. if you want to fall asleep while reading, this might be for you. ugh.

odd creole/slang/jargon writing style, made it hard to read. story was ok but nothing special. I simply didn’t like it, gave off weird vibes in a bad way.

funny fast-paced
Homoerotic renaissance fantasy of the 16th century. Amazing prose; loved the story! Subplot of the brothers wasn’t satisfying but weird. If you like Shakespeare, this one feels even better.
