Glad you enjoyed the Murderbot intro, and I think the next three novellas are all quite a bit stronger and hope you enjoy those!

The first four novellas are a character arc for Murderbot, but each with their own adventure so you won't feel like you're left on a huge unresolved cliffhanger in between books. I think Murderbot is fun on its own, and it's also better taken altogether. Also glad for your review for On Earth as it is on Television; I've had that in my TBR for a little while.

The Flatshare is so good!! I'm also a primarily fantasy reader and picked it up after watching an earlier video in which you talked about it. I absolutely loved it! Would probably not have heard of it without your recommendation. :)

Yay! So glad you enjoyed the first of Murderbot! I think you can definitely make it through the remainder of the novellas and novels before the November release 😊 At least one of the books, Home is available to read on a webpage through the publisher because it’s a very short one.

I really loved the Flatshare and Lady of Scandal. If you like a mix of both, modern setting but with a woman who’s divorced not a widow, I can really recommend Nora goes off-script. Funny, romantic and well-written.

I picked up three within the past few months: Cyberpunk 2077: No Coincidence, the B&N fancy version of Jurassic Park + The Lost World, and The Frugal Wizard’s Guide… I don’t read a ton, but of those I have only finished No Coincidence. It was a good story for someone who has played Cyberpunk 2077. Lots of fan service for fans of the game. I will probably start the Frugal Wizard’s Guide next, after my current Star Wars novel, and then I’ll save Jurassic Park for the start of the new year!

I really liked the audiobook version of On Earth as It Is on Television. I read the physical copy first and then my sister got the audiobook. When I listened to the audiobook, I liked it more. If you are looking for a non-fantasy romance, I recommend Thank You for Listening by Julia Whelan. It's about an audiobook narrator. The author is an audiobook narrator and did the narration. I listened to audiobook. The ending is a little rushed to me but otherwise, I really enjoyed it.
