Book Riot's Read Harder Challenge 2024 - November Update: Artificial Condition & Creepy Crayon!

Happy Saturday everyone!  I hope everyone's been doing well in these tough times.  I've now completed 22 tasks for  Book Riot's 2024 Read Harder Challenge .  The tasks I completed in November required me to read a   sci-fi novella   and a  picture book published in the last five years.   I selected  Artificial Condition  ( The Murderbot Diaries  #2) by Martha Wells  and  Creepy Crayon!  by Aaron Reynolds  respectively.   Read on to see my mini reviews and my plans for next month: ❋   ❋  ❋   ❋  ❋   Artificial Condition  ( The Murderbot Diaries  #2) by Martha Wells  is an excellent sequel to  All Systems Red . I really enjoyed book one, but I adored this one.  It's absolutely awesome and the audiobook production is outstanding.  Now, I'm really starting to get why this is so loved.  I can't wait to see what's next in this series! My review is also on  Goodreads  and my SciFi Month 2024 - Sunday Funday: Week 1 Update post . ❋   ❋  ❋   ❋  ❋ Oh my gosh,  Creepy C
