“But all lives are important, all people are important, because everyone is a book.” -Tanith Lee
You may recall my review of the first two books in the series. It took a little time for me to start the following two because I wasn’t loving what I’d already read. Fortunately, the latter half of the series was more successful for me.

I’ve seen several accounts on YouTube post their reactions to one-star reviews on their favorite reads and I wanted to jump on the bandwagon.

Coming at you today with a shorter discussion post, which I’m calling a quick chat (yeah, you can definitely figure it out from the title of the post, but I felt the need to explain anyway LOL.) I’d like to talk about reading slumps…caused by none other than my favorite author!
My TBR Tear Down challenge is definitely going to help me tackle my Tanith collection, because most of it was added years and years ago. Today I bring you the first two books in the Paradys Quartet…with mixed results.

After a rough start to the year with my first ever Tanith DNF, I was glad to pick up this shorts collection. I knew I was bound to like a few of the stories within and I was right.
I kind of don’t feel like reviewing this series, but it’s Tanith and I kind of want to share my thoughts – so here we are.
If you follow me on Instagram, you’ve probably seen some pictures of the half-sleeve I got in May. If you don’t follow me, here is a shameless plug where I say you should follow me: Hey, you should follow me!
Anyway – I figured I’d do a post with some nice pictures now that my arm is healed and give a brief explanation of what I chose to get.
A short story collection (from my queen) containing a prison planet that uses memories to manipulate its occupants, a woman released from deep freeze after over a century, a man’s relationship with his ship and a planet, a woman’s drastic transformation under the rays of the sun and more.
Shorts collections can be hit or miss whether the stories are from one or multiple authors. This is a solid sci-fi collection with a range of futuristic worlds and a few really stellar stories.

I was tagged by Zezee to do the Dreamy Book Covers tag (created by Tiana at The Book Raven) and seeing how I have weekly posts dedicated to all the beautiful books I own, it would be a disservice not to do this tag!
This is my weekly post where I highlight and appreciate cover designs and the general physical appearance of books. We all judge book covers to some extent. I can’t say that I’ve ever decided against a book with terrible cover art if I liked the sound of the plot, but I do purchase special editions of books and multiple editions of books based on their cover art. If book covers didn’t matter, publishers wouldn’t put out so many beautiful editions!
