Fourth Wing, Rebecca Yarros

Wing,by
Rebecca Yarros
fantasy, 2023

a school for dragon riders. so far so good.
To be sure the graduates are as tough as possible the school... and the students... are set up to kill each other.
Strange idea, I don't like it  but, well, the book is fantasy.


I read half and give up -- there are too many characters for me. I always lose track. In this book it's annoying when a "new" character appears and I am not sure: are they nice or nasty?
I re-start reading from the start. Remembering characters. The book is a lot more enjoyable
... until there is one more pointless death.

Too miserable, I think. And give up reading.

ministry of time, Kaliane Bradley

ministry of time, 
byKaliane Bradley
science fiction
2024
rated 3/10: bad but could be read

I've read 30 pages of 350.
so far, it is boring.
a very clever way to present and explore societal and technological changes as history progresses.
clever and... very... very slow.
so far, it' s tedious.

th the hero does seem heroic.it could be fun to follow his progress.
the heroine... well...it'too soon... we barely know her.perhaps the romance will be fun? I'll never know now.
