Скачать или смотреть February Reading Wrap-Up | The Poet Empress is Unforgettable + 10 More Books

In my February reading wrap up, I’m reviewing 11 fantasy and science fiction books, from two star disappointments to two brand new five star favorites. This month includes cozy fantasy, gothic historical fantasy, space opera, post-apocalyptic sci-fi, and one book I genuinely cannot stop thinking about: The Poet Empress by Shen Tao.

We’re going from lowest rated to absolute favorite, and trust me, this one builds to something special.

Question of the week: What were your best and worst reads of February?
