a cité Why I'm No Longer Talking to White People About Race par Reni Eddo-Lodge

Reni Eddo-Lodge: Why I'm No Longer Talking to White People About Race (2018, Bloomsbury Publishing)

In 2014, award-winning journalist Reni Eddo-Lodge wrote on her blog about her frustration with the …

Asking for a sliver of disproportional power is too polite a request. I don't want to be included. Instead, I want to question who created the standard in the first place. After a lifetime of embodying difference, I have no desire to be equal. I want to deconstruct the structural power of a system that marked me out as different. I don't wish to be assimilated into the status quo. I want to be liberated from all negative assumptions that my characteristics bring. The onus is not on me to change. Instead, it's the world around me.

a publié une critique de The Art of Legend par Wesley Chu (War Arts, #3)

Wesley Chu: The Art of Legend (Hardcover, 2025, Del Rey Books)

A humbled prince, a grumpy grandmaster, and a ragtag band of heroes find out what …

Didn’t get in the rhythm and took a long time to finish

I don’t know if the fault was the book’s or mine, but it took me a lot of effort to pass the two-thirds mark, after which I started going faster.

The ending felt a bit rushed, with some hand-wavy explanations and too much luck to be credible. In a way it’s deconstructing the myth of the prophesied hero, the One, etc., but on the other it’s building a lot of expectations for a finale that feels too little.

Some characters get more developed, which is nice.
