# 15 Ryka Aoki’s: Light from Uncommon Stars

This month's pick was Ronnie's and she choose Light from Uncommon Stars by Ryka Aoki. Ronnie was looking for something similar to Clark's: Piranesi and this book moved us in ways we didn't expect. Katrina Nguyen is a transgender violinist looking for a safe place to live, Shizuka Satomi has made a deal with a devil, and Lan Tran is an alien fleeing with their family from an interstellar plague. There's so much to talk about in this book! Make sure to chat with us about the story over at Twitter.Com/SharedPagesPod!

 

Next month's book is Stephen King's: Fairy Tale!

# 14 Christopher Golden’s: Road of Bones

In Road of Bones by Christopher Golden, two Americans travel to Siberia hoping to make a documentary but end up involved in a supernatural event. Written at a breakneck pace, Golden tells a tale of survival against the odds in one of the coldest and most desolate places on Earth. Ronnie and I both enjoyed this book and we hope you did too!

# 13 Dana Schwartz’s: Anatomy!

Ronnie has been a romance novel kick recently and Ian is a pretty big fan of Dana Schwartz so it seemed a no brainer to read Anatomy. The story of a résurrection man and an upper class woman who wants to be a surgeon. We both really liked this story and are looking forward to to sequel that was recently announced!

#11 Everina Maxwell’s: Winter’s Orbit!

This month we read Winter's Orbit by Everina Maxwell! A sci-fi space romance that's mostly romance with a tinge of politics. We really enjoyed this book as you can probably tell by how long this episode ran. Next months book is The Worm and His Kings by Hailey Piper.

#10 China Miéville’s: The City and The City!

This month, we read China Miéville's: The City and The City and really enjoyed it. Ronnie is not so much into police procedurals but she really like speculative fiction and anthropology. Ian was recommended The City and The City by a coworker and he really enjoyed it, but there is so much happening in the story it's actually difficult to explain coherently. At times, we get confused but try to untangle the knot. 

 

Next month we're reading Winter's Orbit by Everina Maxwell which is a space romance!
