This one was a bit of a slow burn romance but once these two get started....oh my. What I wasn't expecting was the religious aspect of this book. Kel was raised very strictly and I thought the actual sex happened quickly once they moved on their attraction. It was a little kinky, a lot sexy and one of the better Daddy stories I've read it a while. Definite recommend.

Alicia - 'or' isn't one of the words that can be used between the allliterating words :(

Only 'a', 'an', 'the' or 'and' - the or in that phrase was just part of the sentence.

Week 10 - Author UK
The Color of Magic by Terry Pratchett


Date Read: 11/15

Rating: ★★★★

I know I read at least one of this series years ago, but really I had no frame of reference for starting this one. And admittedly the first little bit was a bit difficult to get into as you kinda have to slide your brain one step to the left to follow what's going on. But once I got into the story it was a fair bit of fun. This is absurdity at it's best. I quite enjoyed the cowardly Rincewind as he unceremoniously got drug into an adventure he never wanted. Twoflower is just so oblivious to actuality that all I could do was shake my head at him. But really my absolute favorite character is the Luggage. Yes please! I want a piece of sentient luggage for my very own.

This book is quirky and weird. Yet I found myself highly entertained as you never knew what was going to be coming next.

Week 11 - Academy Awards
Expeditions, Estimation, and Other Dangerous Pastimes by Lyn Gala


Date Read: 11/15

Rating: ★★★★

This was a great story to really see Liam starting to come into his own and recognize how much he has truly accomplished. Now that there is another human palteia on the ship how far Liam has come is much more obvious. His trader strength is clear and how much of an asset he is to Ondry is a big deal.

It was interesting to see them all interact with another species this time around. There was a lot more of a intersection of human and Rawnts belief system and functionality than either of them have with the Imshee.

For the first time the majority of this story takes place in space and I enjoyed seeing how Liam and Ondry have adapted to their new world. They are such a strong couple now, it made the times that they misunderstood each other so much stronger as they worked through the differences inherent in their species. Ondry is still learning how to claim and keep his Tuk status, but his concern for his palteia is always going to take precedence. I really do enjoy this series so much. There are a lot of intricate nuances to these stories in the way trade and relationships are conducted. I love the way the Rawlt insult and are so careful with their words. Such a fun time.
