It's time for the continuing adventures of Liz and her reading list! These are the books I read in August through October, 2019. Click on the cuts for summaries and reactions. I reserve the right to spoil all hell out of any book if spoilery bits are what I feel like talking about.

---------------

Particularly attentive readers may note that I did not finish the next two books in N. K. Jemisin's Broken Earth trilogy. This is not because I disliked them! On the contrary, I got about halfway through book two and found it just as good as book one... and also just as bleak, which apparently was not something I had the emotional spoons to handle at the time. So I put the series aside and read other things instead. I will return to them someday when I'm in the mood for something in the "thousands of years of continual slow-motion apocalypse with attendant dystopia" vein. *wry*
