The Truth of the Aleke by Moses Ose Utomi
Liked it even though it didn't grab me as much as the previous one.
Osi is breaking my heart. Wanting to do the right thing but being manipulated and ending up as a pawn for both sides. :/
This also shows how good propaganda can work - for things from the past as well as current things.

Phasers on Stun!: How the Making--And Remaking--Of Star Trek Changed the World by Ryan Britt
Liked it. It was interesting and also so gratifying to have acknowledged that women created Fandom and so on.
I'm a bit Hmmm that TOS got so many pages (roughly half the book) but the other shows only a chapter. Yes, TOS was the first and you need to know some things to get why it has groundbreaking (or not). But, the same goes for the other shows...

Command Decision by Elizabeth Moon
It's been a bit since I've read the previous part so it took me a bit to remember who is who but then I had fun reading it.
Even though, at the moment I really like Rafes and Aunt Graces storyline the best and want to spend more time with them. Still like Ky a lot though.

I'm very glad that Alex didn't full on go darkside and that everyone I cared about survived.
I'm a bit dissatisfied with the ending. I would have loved to hear more about Vari and how everything is in general but all in all I'm ok with how it ended.

Hmmm. I don't know. I don't know. It's hard to watch Alex change to a Dark Mage who doesn't care about killing and who gets killed. :( I get some of his reasoning but still. I still have hope that there is a major plottwist in the last book but it's tiny. :(

The Teller of Small Fortunes by Julie Leong
I like it. The friendships. The found family. The thought that cats are part magic. ;)
Love Tao and her accepting her friends and her magic and that she does not have to be alone anymore.

Studio Ghibli: The Films of Hayao Miyazaki and Isao Takahata by Colin Odell, Michelle Le Blanc
I like this.
It's a nice overview of the movies pre- and from Studio Ghibli with short descriptions and explanations about plot, source material, animation style and other things.
