It's probably a quirk of translation but this book describes Mercury as having "tongue-shaped cliffs" and I just can't visualise what that's meant to look like.

Finally one of these Hugos nominations redeems itself! This was great, I loved it.

I know a lot of people really liked this but I found it kind of meh. Fundamentally it's a whodunnit but set on another planet (or moon, I guess), and it has queer characters. But one of them is manipulative and coercive and it did not read as a healthy dynamic to me.

Anyway moving onto the Hugo novella nominations now.

This wasn't a bad book but I really struggled to care about any of the characters. Felt like I was just trudging through the last third to get to the end.

Reading this one on work time

This was a good read. First book in a series of unknown length.

This was good fun, a story about a woman pirate on the Indian Ocean before Western domination.

@hugh@bookwyrm.social I really enjoyed it. I've been meaning to read her book on colour too.

Ok this was great. Read the whole thing over the course of 24 hours. Don't want to spoil anything but 5 stars, read it.
