I absolutely flew through "Beneath the Canopy of Stars"! The audiobook version really elevates the whole experience. The German accents are fantastic, the voice effects in some chapters are super effective, and having different narrators for each character was a great choice. Honestly, the only thing that kept it from being a perfect 5-star read for me was the 2020 timeline. With all the historical tragedies already woven into the story, another COVID narrative felt a bit much. That said, I stil...

The writing was top-notch, but unfortunately, *Beneath the Canopy of Stars* didn't really grab my attention as much as I thought it would. The book has a lot to say about the current climate regarding fascism and doing the right thing under dangerous circumstances. This is definitely an important read, and Libba Bray pulls no punches in that regard. All three (well, four-ish if you count Mormor's stories/fables) POVs have something to say regarding countering oppressive governments and recogniz...

It started so strong, and I was really excited about where it was going, but it started to drag around the 30% mark.
