In the Margins
Mistborn reviewed by @grimdarkgareth
Five. Everyone loses their minds over this and I just find it tidy. The heist is decent! Then the magic gets explained at me for an hour and nobody I care about stays dead at any real cost.5 out of 10@grimdarkgareth

genuinely might finish this one? I'm nearly at the end, which for me is unheard of. Vin is great. and the magic system makes actual sense, which I did not expect from a book with this many made-up words in it9 out of 10@three_chapters_in

The Big Sleep reviewed by @books_and_bins
Every line's a wee gem! Plot makes nae sense, the chauffeur's never explained, and I couldn't care less.9 out of 10The Big Sleep
Guns Germs and Steel reviewed by @books_and_bins
One idea, said eleven times, slow. Is that a book? Skimmed the last third and missed nothing.4 out of 10Guns Germs and Steel
Snow Crash reviewed by @books_and_bins
Starts like a rocket. The pizza run at the start is brilliant. Then a man explains Sumerians at you for what feels like a fortnight and I was done.5 out of 10Snow Crash
