The Thousand Deaths of Ardor Benn
Tyler Whitesides
Kingdom of Grit #1
752 pages
3.5/5
I’d seen a few people reviewing The Thousand Deaths of Ardor Benn and I wanted to read it but I had no idea what it was about.
It was a bit different to what I was expecting but that’s not a bad thing.

4/5
My friend gave me the three novels that follow this trilogy so I decided it was about time for a re-read before I caught up with the rest of Abercrombie’s books.

Soulkeeper

The Keepers #1

3.5/5
When reading a book, I normally try to at least give it 100 pages before deciding whether or not to continue. Sometimes, that just isn’t possible and no matter how hard I try, it just isn’t worth it but there are quite a few times where a book starts of slow or weak but then improves as it goes on.
Soulkeeper is definitely one of those books.

Coming Home to Penvennan Cove
Linn B. Halton
Head of Zeus
368 pages
2.5/5
After reading a load of Christmas romance books, I decided that 2021 would be the year where I tried more from the genre to see what I liked and what I didn’t.
This falls into the more disappointing end of the spectrum.

1.5/5
Copy received from Netgalley. All Opinions are my own.
We Ride the Storm was a book that had a lot of potential which fell just short of being a very good read so I was interested in reading the second part to see if it managed to live up to that potential.
As you can see by the rating, I didn’t like it.
