What are you reading this week? [7/16/23]

I just finished Thief, Liar, Lady and I would not recommend it. It’s a retelling of Cinderella that has a lot of fantasy elements and political intrigue, however none of it is fleshed out. It was an interesting concept, but by 50% you can tell the author doesn’t know how to resolve it, characters lose their voice and motivations, and there are some pretty questionable themes surrounding consent to top it all off.
