SciFi June – Books I read

Unlike during Fantasy May when I was also reading for Wyrd And Wonder, June was a more relaxed month for me. I read Gravity is Heartless and Blades of the Fallen. The Affinities was more of a near future SciFi. If you are interested, here is the link to Blades of the Fallen review. The Affinities is coming tomorrow!


For July, we are all geared up to read two books set in non-Western cultures. You are welcome to join us in our Discord community!
