The Snow Child ~ Eowyn Ivey
Grrr ... thought this seemed cliched ... and it was ... but also familiar because I had read it before (and wasn't impressed the first time)

The Incarnations ~ Susan Barker
Only just hit **OK
Really shouldn't have bothered finishing ... it was just that I so loved the previous work of hers (Old Soul).
It rated an **OK because of the snippets of Chinese history but the packaging was too long, mostly boring

All Systems Red (Murderbot Diaries 1) ~ Martha Wells
Rogue Robot
Enjoyable, engaging, snappy sci-fi
I was just looking for a little palate cleanser and this was perfect. A short book, a quick read ... and have ordered the next in the series!

Let Us Descend ~ Jesmyn Ward
This really should have been a DNF.
What was meant to pass for magic realism was more like continuing dream-sequences followed by and-then-I-woke-up
Don't know wtf I kept reading

The Sequel ~ Jean Hanff Korelitz
Fun, fast paced sequel to The Plot : a novel about a novel.
A little repetitive of the first book with characterisation
