I did have a couple of ★★★★½ books, too, which I would've bumped to five stars on Goodreads, but since The StoryGraph actually understands that fractions of stars are a thing, I can now keep track of them:
  • All the Light We Cannot See, by Anthony Doerr
  • Doomsday Book, by Connie Willis

I have no recommendations for books published in 2023 on account of I'm still working through books I acquired in 2019. Yeah my TBR list is a little bit out of control ...
So good to see someone else loving Ada Palmer! Also great Connie Willis pick!
