I've finished:

- The Fractured Dark by Megan O'Keefe. Held together, though I got the sense that the author wasn't sure where to cut between books 2 and 3 and ended up giving this book a bit of a tail after what I thought seemed like a fair resting place to end came at about 80% through. I'm also not sure I'm a fan of the rather static and constrained situation that Naira and Tarquin found themselves in at the end, or how Naira physically went from badass to dishrag so quickly. Still a fan of the innovative problems that the body printing and cybernetics and mind-casting situation sets up, though.

- That Time I Got Drunk and Saved a Demon by Kimberly Lemming. Fun, funny, and just my combination of lighthearted romance and floofy fantasy, without any of the things I don't like. Sold.

Still reading:

- Full Speed to a Crash Landing by Beth Revis
- The Power of Habit by Charles Duhigg
- Ask a Manager: How to Navigate Clueless Colleagues, Lunch-Stealing Bosses, and the Rest of Your Life at Work by Alison Green

Also have The Fourth Consort by Edward Ashton waiting for me, which I'm hoping I'll like a little more than I liked the Mickey 17 movie.
