Gleanings

I just love the cover, the looks, ect (not to mention the stories fantastic and a good last book to the series ) it think it is a perfect book this is how all books should be! BUY IT!!! (It is for older readers because it has a couple swears along with morbid/gruesome imaging)

I absolutely loved this book as well as the three that came before it. A fascinating world that I thoroughly enjoyed exploring. This book had a great mix stories with entirely new characters as well as stories from that followed the characters from the original trilogy.

El libro es pasta dura es del mismo tamaños que los tres anteriores. Debajo de la sobrecubierta es de color azul marino con un grabado en el centro.Las historias igual de buenas que todo lo que escribe este autor.

Some chapters were slower, granted. But overall, I was hooked at the very begining.Here are the ratings for each story:The First Swing (5) I'm probably not fit to judge poetry, but it talked to me. It felt very Scythe-y.Formidable (4) I'm all for Susan. Honestly, the changes she caused with her actions here. Wow.Never Work With Animals (5) Just perfect. Perfect. The fact that I have (tiny scraps, I'm not even complaning, I'll take anything) Rowan makes even better.A Death of Many Colors (3.5) Not really for the story, but the massage at the end... yeah, I get that.Unsavory Row (3.5) Interesting for more knowladge of the mechanics of the world the Thunderhead build, but not really here for these characters.A Martian Minute (5) Amazing. Though, I also hate it for reasons.The Mortal Canvas (5) This one had a tiny slip towards the end, but it finished strong so, love it.Cirri (5) Just give me more Thunderhead and Cirri, and let me question my existence, time and so on!The Persistance of a Memory (4.5) I laughed. Plus, the nuances of the characters were really interesting.Anastasia's Shadow (4) I had mixed feelings here. It's interesting cause it gives us a bit of clousure towards him, but I'm not sure I cared enough to be this invested in it. But towards the end it was interesting to ponder on things like: how you take dismissal, change, grief, etc.Meet Cute and Die (4.5) I was doing some shrine quests on BOTW and was in for the ride, lol. The last page raised a few eyebrows, but I'm gonna have a little faith and believe it was not what it seemed. 👀Perchance to Glean (4) Definetely the one which started slower, but I gotta say: I really enjoyed the end. Not a twist per se, but... I don't know how to explain it. It just gave me a good feeling. I 'm weird.A Dark Curtain Rises (5) YES. Thank you, Mr Schusterman. THANK YOU.

I liked this book. It contains short stories about scythes, who also appear in the series. After reading it, I had to reread the searies, because I was hooked again.
