Q4: Empress of All Seasons explores the concept of mercy and ambition - with both Mari and Taro being told to be less merciful at various points. What other characters struggle with mercy versus power? #backlistbookworms

A6: I was trying to see if I had anything good already on my kindle/ audiobooks that I thought would be fun, looking toward Asian authors because I believe it’s an AAPI history month (is that right?), but SOMEBODY has read all of them. (I checked GR, haha.) #backlistbookworms

A3: I think Donovan’s parents made for really interesting moral greys. I probably liked Jet the best for it, though. He’s all passion, despite being an exemplary soldier. He would burn the world, and it would be out of love. #backlistbookworms

A1: Physically, I liked that the aliens weren’t humanoid; and they were described vaguely enough to leave your imagination open. It made me feel like the humans still weren’t sure how to describe them, which held on to the “alien” aspect even after decades. #backlistbookworms

A3: Oh wow. Backlist existentialism today. 😅 I think my core personality would be similar without some/ most of my memories. But I almost feel like it would depend not on how many memories, but when from? Like some years feel more formative to my personality. #backlistbookworms

A2: I recently thought this about Th Forest of Stolen Girls by @WriterJuneHur because it just got to the point where I NEEDED to finish it! Not to mention the atmosphere was spot on #backlistbookworms

A5: There’s the comparison to The Kingdom of Back, which I don’t think any of us can help. Hmm. I read The Golem and the Jinni a few years ago and it had a very fairytale/ historical romance feel to it. #backlistbookworms

A4: I was annoyingly enchanted by and in love with the Goblin King, which I’m still mad about, even if it didn’t surprise me. The goblin court... hmm... it didn’t stand out to me, but in a good way. Like it fit other goblin and fae settings I’ve encountered. #backlistbookworms

A4: I definitely loved the idea of the decadence and the utter strange quality of the Goblin Court. I ADORE seeing the "decay beneath the decadence" and the idea of seeing the glimpses of danger and rot #backlistbookworms
