I'm a big fan of qntm, this book has the their trademark wildly unique world. But the story got a little too big in the final third and I felt like it kinda fizzled out some. Recommended if you like the genre.

The first two books are prelude to this "regular" adventure book in Nevermoor. This one is certainly a little scarier (from a YA perspective), but also has us settling in with the main characters and learning more about them. Again, can't recommend this series enough if you like YA magic/fantasy.

Morrigan is a great character, but the world of Nevermoor is the real reason this series is so great. So much depth in the world and the people. And so much of it goes undeveloped (until later books). I love the pacing of this series, even if the main plot points are somewhat predictable.

This book is a little slow to get started, but the world it describes is amazing, and only gets better the more you re-read it. Joyous characters and complex villains abound.

The depth of the characters, and the quality of the writing, made the dark side of the plot extra painful. I respect it, but it's not for me.

The idea behind the title is fantastic. The creativity is amazing, but the story itself seemed a little clunky, maybe due to the translation/cultural differences. It's a very 70's Russian science fiction story. Recommended if you like that era.

A fun and short SF book that takes an idea, toys with it some, and then wraps it up without going on too long.

[this is for the english translation] it's a short book. I recommend reading it all in one go or over a short period of time. There's a lot of nuance stretched over the chapters, and if you lose context, the beauty of the book is also lost.

Kinda science fiction, kinda not? A really well designed story with compelling characters that loops around on itself. Once it gets going it's hard to put down

A low stress read about an interesting/conincidental life - great for bedtime.
