Books 30-36

I tried another audio book. I think this format just doesn't work for me, I don't plan on listening to any more. The book was ExpandThe Metamorphosis by Franz Kafka ) The story itself was interesting and this was more engaging than the other audio books I've tried. Its written well enough that by the end I felt bad for a cockroach, so that's a good sign.

I finished the last of my backlog of series to complete (or at least the ones I could complete using my unlimited free trial) with the Darkness of the Living Forest series.

ExpandAscent of Darkness and Ruin by Meg Cowley )

ExpandPurge of Flame and Song by Meg Cowley ) This is a well done fantasy series. The world building is fantastic and the characters are well rounded. I enjoyed the journey of each of the characters as they all played their part in the war. I would love to see more of this universe.

A friend recommended that I read the Four Horsemen series, so I found it and read through the series in about a week.

ExpandPestilence by Laura Thalassa )
ExpandWar by Laura Thalassa )
ExpandFamine by Laura Thalassa )
ExpandDeath by Laura Thalassa ) Overall, I enjoyed this series. Famine is my favorite of the set. I did not like War, I skipped a majority of it. I felt Death had some unnecessary story lines, but I liked the ending and how it wrapped up the series. TW, there is a lot of death, fighting, and brutality in each book. Death specifically deals with infant death.
