"Echoes of Broken Harmony"
In a realm where thoughts took physical form, there existed a grand orchestra hall. Its walls were made of memories, its floor paved with shared experiences. At its center stood four ornate music stands, each bearing a different instrument: a violin, a flute, a cello, and a trumpet. These instruments were not mere objects, but living entities, siblings born from the same cosmic melody.

Book Review: Blood of Midgard by Baptiste Pinson Wu
The end is near. The war is just beginning. Ragnarök’s shadow looms over Asgard. The gods grow fearful, and Odin, in a desperate attempt to fill the benches of Valhöll with more slain heroes, sends his elite warriors to Midgard to spark conflicts. Drake, their leader, would rather fight to prevent the end of the world before it began, for Muninn, Odin’s daughter, is fated to die during the last great battle. But as Drake and his brothers strive to accomplish Odin’s will on Midgard, a plan born in the darkness of Loki’s cell—and acted upon by someone close to Drake—is set in motion. The snare tightens around Drake, and every step the warrior takes toward the woman he loves in secret brings Ragnarök closer.

Yellowface by R.F. Kuang
Yellowface by R.F. Kuang is a fairly recent release, it came out a little over a year ago, and I recently picked up a signed copy at a used book sale. I had heard some great things, but I didn't realize that this is the author of Poppy Wars, and Babel, two books that are very different in subject to this book.
