Shelby Suderman | 2180 comments Elise and I are buddy reading Dreadnought (Nemesis #1) by April Daniels early in 2022 and you’re all invited!


Shelby Suderman | 2180 comments Elyse, I was thinking the first of February maybe? I should be done Addie by then.

Sounds good! I have 2 other buddy reads starting Feb 1 but this is an audiobook for me so it will fit right in.

I will probably start it tomorrow as I have library audio due back on Thursday morning that I need to get through.

Sounds good! I finally have a day to relax so I’ll probably start later today.


Shelby Suderman | 2180 comments Started tonight before bed. I just finished the second chapter!

I've made it to Ch 18. (view spoiler) I keep having The Boys flashbacks!! lol. The sequel is out but Daniels has been working on book 3 for quite some time. That's a bummer.


Shelby Suderman | 2180 comments I haven’t read it in a few days. 😅


Shelby Suderman | 2180 comments I’m on vacation right now so I’m just picking up what I’m in the mood for. I’m enjoying this so far, but the darker elements of the transphobia is making it a little hard to read at the moment. But I am going to try and get some reading done tomorrow. 😊


Shelby Suderman | 2180 comments Spent the past few hours playing the one-more-chapter game, but I'm stopping for now at chapter 16. I really enjoyed the last section.

At least we'll be ready!

I'm on Ch 23. Oof Ch 21 is extreme on the transphobic and homophobic slurs. I was crying, it was so harsh.

I finished this last week. I enjoyed it a lot, yes the homophobic and transphobic parts were very hard to read. Overall, it was a bit predictable but a great book for any young transgender person. I will definitely be reading the second book but again, I'm so sad that the book 3 release date is undeterminable.

I’m planning to read more of this soon. Also, I saw the film rights were optioned relatively recently, so maybe we’ll get to see that someday?


Shelby Suderman | 2180 comments I’ve been reading it more! This book is really, really good, but it’s also a tough sit. I’m planning to finish this and another book by the end of this week. I made it to chapter 23 last night.

It is very tough. I'm hoping Sovereign will be a little lighter? lol


Shelby Suderman | 2180 comments I made it to chapter 29 last night. I know it was earlier in the story but the fight with (view spoiler) reminded me a bit of this video that always cracks me up. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=SRfzw...

That whole channel is so addictive it’s easy to lose hours bingeing. 😂


Shelby Suderman | 2180 comments I finished it! It was great! I was not expecting those last few twists at all!

Just sharing this post from April Daniels’ FB page for anyone who wants to help.


Shelby Suderman | 2180 comments I just saw the author’s been posting about book three! There’s some bonus content about it on April Daniels’ Patreon if anyone’s interested!

I still need to read book 2, but I haven’t been in the right headspace for it. 😅
