Reading project, week ending 2 April 2023

What have I read this week? It’s late, sorry!

The Mythical Man-Month by Frederick P. Brooks, Jr.

This is a nonfiction book about software engineering. I found this pretty interesting, although a lot of the technical stuff was lost on me. I might read more by this author.

Pet by Akwaeke Emezi

This is a YA novel about a young girl named Jam and the angel she accidentally summons. I really enjoyed this; I really liked the world and the characters. I would definitely read more by this author.

The Death of Vivek Oji by Akwaeke Emezi

This is a book about a young Nigerian man named Vivek, his life and death, and his effect on those around him. I found this interesting; I liked the characters and their world. I would definitely read more by this author.

Traitor’s Blade by Sebastien de Castell

This is the first book in The Greatcoats series, about a man named Falcio val Mond, the leader of the last remnants of the Greatcoats, a team of people sworn to uphold the King’s justice. I really liked this; the characters are great and the story was really interesting. I would definitely read more by this author.
