I really liked Dread Nation, and I'm looking forward to reading Spinning Silver! I struggled with Stone Sky for some reason, I didn't love it as much as Fifth Season. I know I'm in the minority there. Happy new year!
Great list! I'm reading City of Brass right now. A Reaper at the Gates is on my top 10 list. I can't wait until the next one! And I really need to read Spinning Silver sometime too.
I'm curious about Dread Nation. I need to check that out.
I've heard good things about Spinning Silver. It is in my tbr. Here is my Top Ten Tuesday.
I loved Scythe! It made my list, too. Happy 2019!
