Rated Jago & Litefoot: Series 1 8/10
<div>Jago and Litefoot are such solid Doctor Who spinoff characters. It's always a lot of fun to listen to their adventures. This is a solid set, and I enjoyed the lengthy bonus interviews too.</div><div><br></div>

Rated LaserWriter II 10/10
<div>What an amazing, inventive little book about a specific time and place, back when being into tech was weird, but helpful, instead of monetized and massive. Loved this.</div>

Rated Ink & Sigil 10/10
<div>I am not even sure how I came across this book, since I'd never heard of the author of any of his other books, but I enjoyed this immensely. It's funny, the locations feel real (though I'm not from Glasgow, so ymmv), and each character is interesting without it being too "look, we're so quirky!" I am definitely going to read the next in the series when I get a chance.</div>

Rated Iris 10/10
Honestly, it's more of a 4.5, but screw it, I'll round up. My quibbles are more of the editorial sort. She could use more dialogue tags, and somehow a few typos slipped through, but otherwise this is a great, interesting book. Marsh’s writing examines the competition between the internal and external — the performances we give others, and how it feels to be in one’s own body. The body, the occasional crudeness of physicality, and how that affects a woman’s inner monologue is constantly at play throughout the story. Iris is strong all throughout her learning about herself, but while she may not show it to others, she’s quite in touch with her insecurity. She resents her initial lack of educational opportunity, but that doesn’t mean she’s going to stop learning to spite herself. When it comes to sex and men’s desires, she learns what is within her control.<br><br>Full review can be found at <a href="http://glorifiedloveletters.blogspot.com/2015/11/iris-by-jean-marsh.html">Glorified Love Letters</a>, and it's also one of my <a href="http://glorifiedloveletters.blogspot.com/2015/12/glorified-love-letters-top-10-favorite.html">Top 10 Favorites read in 2015.</a>
