Meetings with Moths by Katty Baird
Page Count: 241 Rating: 4/5 REVIEW It was enjoyable read of mostly anecdotes about the author’s adventures discovering and identifying moths, allowing for a quirky entry level introduction to the world of mothing and I preferred the lightness but still informative tone about a creature that is often side-lined or even hated but as someoneContinue reading “Meetings with Moths by Katty Baird”
The Dragon’s Eye (Dragonology) by Dugald A Steer
Page Count: 281 Rating: 4/5 REVIEW I haven’t read the large interactive Dragonology book that this story uses as its basis, but it was a fun and cute children’s story about dragons and I thoroughly enjoyed it.
Until August by Gabriel Garcia Marquez
Page Count: 110 Rating: 4/5 REVIEW It is an interesting little book and one that is very poetic. It is short and sweet being only 110 pages but it was very beautiful. I had never read a book by Marquez before as they’ve never sounded like a genre I would enjoy but I might considerContinue reading “Until August by Gabriel Garcia Marquez”
The Year in Space by The Supermassive Podcast
Page Count: 162 Rating: 4/5 REVIEW It went into a decent amount of detail an each topic as it was never meant as a deep dive book, however it was a bit too light for me simply as I’m used to longer science books and so I wish it was a bit longer and inContinue reading “The Year in Space by The Supermassive Podcast”
Femina by Janina Ramirez
Page Count: 333 Rating: 5/5 REVIEW I really enjoyed the view of women throughout history and how they have been misinterpreted by later years of misogyny and I am happy that we now, having the technology and scrutiny of old biases, can put them back into the histories that they played a part in andContinue reading “Femina by Janina Ramirez”
What if we all stopped pretending? by Jonathan Franzen
Page Count: 41 Rating: 4.5/5 REVIEW The author is not a scientist but he is a realist who knows people. He states the point that, though we should absolutely try and stop or at least lessen climate change, in the (large) chance that it will still happen, we need to focus on other things weContinue reading “What if we all stopped pretending? by Jonathan Franzen”
Gender Euphoria, edited by Laura Kate Dale
Page Count: 286 Rating: 5/5 REVIEW A wonderful collection of memoirs about some of the positive aspects of trans lives and queerness which needs to have more of a highlight alongside the struggles that they face. It lets trans people know that there is hope for them and lets non-trans (cis) people know that theyContinue reading “Gender Euphoria, edited by Laura Kate Dale”

Page Count: 258 Rating: 5/5 REVIEW As a lover of Winter, Ice and the Cold have always fascinated me. It was interesting to read about all the different ways we have used ice throughout the centuries and the different people who ice has influenced to travel, to hike, to experiment, to paint, and to write.Continue reading “A Cold Spell – A human history of ice by Max Leonard”
Diary of an Oxygen Thief by Anonymous
Page Count: 151 Rating: 2/5 REVIEW It was well-written grammar wise but I was expecting it to be dark and messed up from the beginning and build up but it turned out to be pretty boring and mundane and the writing was trying too hard to make it seem like this gothic tale when itContinue reading “Diary of an Oxygen Thief by Anonymous”
