Mislaid in Parts Half-Known by Seanan McGuire

emma’s first review of the year

it was ok
not completely sure but i think a neverending series of weird short books in which fairytales are real could cure me.

this is kind of like if fredrik backman wrote an installment of this series, in that it is technically a story about a group of weird children who have gone in and out of magic worlds, but that the whole thing feels fairly shallow and filled with the kind of truisms and bland banter that drives me crazy.

emma’s last review of the year

really liked it
welcome to...TESS OF THE DECEMBERVILLES.

and welcome back to another installment of project long classics, in which i spend a month reading an intimidating work from the literary canon mostly as an excuse to a) make bad title puns and b) excuse my penguin clothbound addiction.

tess was my childhood family dog's name so i'm sure i'll be able to relate to this one.

this has 59 "chapters" (normal) divided into 7 "phases" (why), so i'll read 2 chapters
