Patron Saint of Falling Over Things

I have Black Water Sister on my bedside table right now! I'm really excited for this one; I've liked Cho's other work so much, and this one sounds right up my alley.

I loved Polk's Witchmark, and then the rest of the Kingston cycle had seriously diminishing returns for me, so Midnight Bargain made me very happy. (I totally agree that the metaphor has all the subtlety of a brick to the head, but so much of the rest of the book delighted me that I really didn't mind.)

Poppy War, oof -- I found that book simultaneously excellent and unbearable. I didn't continue with the series. But I'm excited about her new book, Babel!

Monk & Robot! ♥

I hadn't heard of Bluebird, but it sounds like an excellent crunchy snack -- it's on my list now. :D

Have you heard of The Forever Sea (Joshua P. Johnson)? You might like it. The sequel, The Endless Song, is coming out this month.
