aimeekgunther reviewed Yellowface by R. F. Kuang
The reader plays the judge and jury as the author weaves thoughts and themes of diversity quotas, reverse racism, and white woman tears #bookstodon
4 stars
Artistic writing. Even though you hate the protagonist from the first chapter, the author leaves it up to you to decide how much and how far you disagree with her actions. Engaging read in surprising ways

The romantasy was a ride but didn't deliver
3 stars
Guilty: this is my first romantasy. I devoured this book, however, not a fan of the landing... Felt shallow and underdeveloped. Neat worldbuild.
aimeekgunther commented on Fourth Wing by Rebecca Yarros (The Empyrean, #1)
It has been a very long time since I've read a romance novel... Evident from the first chapter. It's not that my standard SciFi and Fantasy don't have any flings, but this is a totally different ball game...

aimeekgunther reviewed To Shape a Dragon's Breath by Moniquill Blackgoose (Nampeshiweisit, #1)
Heartfelt characters, poignant analogy to colonial steamrolling of the first peoples
4 stars
Well done, an enjoyable read. Set in Victorian-era, but one with dragons who are bonded to humans. Classic bureaucracy, dragons and their dragoneers are regulated like driving cars. This clearly collides with an indigenous girl and her new dragon and the colonial occupiers who view her and her people as less-than-human savages.
