  2. You realize, of course, that with each book I read, I'm going to have to come back here and see if it fits any of the categories in any of your optional challenges! :D

  5. So I've just finished Kim by Rudyard Kipling and counting it as a classic. I'm not sure why it is a classic and I'll have to think on it some more to write a proper review. I'll just say, I've reviewed textbooks with more interest.

  6. i never used to possess that reading addiction neither i had the patience to finish reading the books. but with the time i just realized the significance of reading is simply inexplicable. i don't know whether i will be able to keep with this in future but i definitely want to give it a try.

  8. For my fantasy selection I'm going with a book that was suggested to me when I was a YA librarian. Never got around to it and unfortunately it wasn't my thing.

    The Grace of Kings by Ken Liu. Historical fiction meets fabtasy, but the dialogue was very flat and the one female main character was there basically to have children. Quite a disappointment.

    1. Sorry you didn't enjoy it. Have you perhaps read The Three Body Problem which I think Liu translated. I currently have it in my TBR stack.
