Kolin MurphyA nice collection of short stories. Very good imagery, although a couple felt less like stories and more just like rambling (looking at you Yakult Swallows Poetry Collection)
Kolin MurphyObviously it's of its time. I loved the development of Bilbo and your mains like Thorin, Gandalf, Bard, heck even the intricacies of Gollum for his short appearance. However, I truly wish that there was greater details in the moments where he's like "so this happened..." Okay, how did it happen? That was just kind of jarring to me. Still enjoyed it overall though.
Kolin MurphyThis book threw me back and forth of emotions of sorrow, to anger, to disgust, to just trauma by empathy. As someone who deals with psychological issues, this really weighed heavy on me, but in a good way. THIS BOOK IS NOT FOR THE FAINT OF HEART, but it definitely makes you feel and made me want to start listening to myself more.
Matt NelsonDefinitely adding this to my reading list. Thank you!
