The Ballad of Perilous Graves

I can see why this book has the exaltation it does, however, for me, it was just sad? And not even a refreshing sort of sad, but a lingering one that just circles again and again.
Even the stories go round on themselves to the same ending, and there’ll be a certain futility to any story involving simply viewing and not changing the future, but this felt bleak as a majority instead of hopeful. That could be right for some people but I was hoping for something lighter, something contemplative.
The concept is interesting and would’ve worked with some more variety in the stories, I’m guessing something that the sequel may introduce? There’s no real standout characters, the old man and his wife I’ve remembered the best, but that’s because it’s Sad.

This is an achingly sweet short sci fi story following the journey of one robot to meet another and reminisce. It’s a careful exploration of the universe and purpose all rolled up amongst grief and connection and all beautifully written.

I've recently read The Sunbearer Trials, Celestial Monsters, and Cemetery Boys, all by Aiden Thomas. They're phenomenal, I highly recommend! But now, I crave more like these books.
I need more cozy adventurous YA fantasy in my life, so if anyone has any recommendations, or wants to share their favourites in the genre, feel free to share! Bonus points if they have diverse casts and queer rep! 🤩🏳️🌈

Hi everyone, we've just released a big app update with many quality of life improvements, bug fixes, and some new features. These are all available on web as well. Please make sure your apps are updated to the latest version, 1.1.1, to see these changes! As a reminder, you can check out what we're working on and what's coming up next via the public roadmap (in the footer on web, in the more menu on the app)
Here's a list of updates:
We're working on monthly wrapups, reading streaks, and some prep for more stats next! We will also be making some additional enhancements to Quests (like: a book recommendations section similar to the Community Recs on book pages, stats for how many users earned each badge tier, and a feed tab like the new feed tab on book pages)
Thanks everyone and happy reading, Jennifer + Lucy
