Histoire4 out of 5 stars 1
A corporate aristocracy descended from Africa rules a colony on a distant planet. Life here is easy—for the rarified and privileged few. The aristocrats enjoy a powerful cybernetic technology that extends their life spans and ensures their prosperity. Those who serve them suffer under a heavy hand. But within this ruthless society are agents of hope and change. In a secret underwater laboratory, a separatist cult has created a threat to the aristocracy. The Primes are highly intelligent, manipulative products of genetic engineering, designed to lead a rebellion.

People start dropping dead around Charlie, giant ravens perch on his building, and it seems that everywhere he goes, a dark presence whispers to him from under the streets. Strange names start appearing on his nightstand notepad, and before he knows it, those people end up dead, too. Yup, it seems that Charlie Asher has been recruited for a new job, an unpleasant but utterly necessary one: Death.

Nahri has never believed in magic. Certainly, she has power; on the streets of 18th-century Cairo, she’s a con woman of unsurpassed talent. But she knows better than anyone that the trades she uses to get by - palm readings, zars, and a mysterious gift for healing - are all tricks, both the means to the delightful end of swindling Ottoman nobles and a reliable way to survive. But when Nahri accidentally summons Dara, an equally sly, darkly mysterious djinn warrior, to her side during one of her cons, she’s forced to reconsider her beliefs.

For years, detective Harry Hole has been at the center of every major criminal investigation in Oslo. His brilliant insights and dedication to his job have saved countless lives over the years. But as the killer grows increasingly bold and the media reaction increasingly hysterical, the detective is nowhere to be found. This time, when those he loves and values most are facing terrible danger, Harry is in no position to protect anyone—least of all himself.

Histoire4 out of 5 stars 19
My name is Hope Arden, and you won't know who I am. But we've met before—a thousand times. It started when I was 16 years old. A father forgetting to drive me to school. A mother setting the table for three, not four. A friend who looks at me and sees a stranger. No matter what I do, the words I say, the crimes I commit, you will never remember who I am. That makes my life difficult. It also makes me dangerous. The Sudden Appearance of Hope is a riveting and heartbreaking exploration of identity and existence, about a forgotten girl whose story will stay with you forever.

Description
“This book is fast, furious, compelling, and angry as hell." (Seanan McGuire, New York Times best-selling author)
The Boys meets My Year of Rest and Relaxation in this smart, imaginative, and evocative novel of love, betrayal, revenge, and redemption, told with razor-sharp wit and affection, in which a young woman discovers the greatest superpower - for good or ill - is a properly executed spreadsheet.
Anna does boring things for terrible people because even criminals need office help and she needs a job. Working for a monster lurking beneath the surface of the world isn’t glamorous. But is it really worse than working for an oil conglomerate or an insurance company? In this economy?
As a temp, she’s just a cog in the machine. But when she finally gets a promising assignment, everything goes very wrong, and an encounter with the so-called “hero” leaves her badly injured. And, to her horror, compared to the other bodies strewn about, she’s the lucky one. So, of course, then she gets laid off.
With no money and no mobility, with only her anger and internet research acumen, she discovers her suffering at the hands of a hero is far from unique. When people start listening to the story that her data tells, she realizes she might not be as powerless as she thinks.
Because the key to everything is data: knowing how to collate it, how to manipulate it, and how to weaponize it. By tallying up the human cost these caped forces of nature wreak upon the world, she discovers that the line between good and evil is mostly marketing. And with social media and viral videos, she can control that appearance.
It’s not too long before she’s employed once more, this time by one of the worst villains on earth. As she becomes an increasingly valuable lieutenant, she might just save the world.
A sharp, witty, modern debut, Hench explores the individual cost of justice through a fascinating mix of millennial office politics, heroism measured through data science, body horror, and a profound misunderstanding of quantum mechanics.

Fun unique story
It was a great story fun to listen to but at times the voices by the performer were distracting and took away from the story- still worth a listen!

Not a superhero fan and loved this book!
I only listened to this book as a part of a challenge to myself to listen to all 5 books from 2021 Canada reads. This was the sleeper hit. I loved all the cleverness and the fierce female characters! It evoked the joy of Saturday morning superhero cartoons. Such a pleasure!!

Nasally Voice
I was really looking forward to this story since it was recommended by a few friends who read the hard copy. I had a hard time getting through the audiobook since the narrator had differing levels of a very nasally, nerving voice when speaking for the various characters. I couldn’t handle it and ended up switching to reading the hard copy about 2 hours into the audiobook. The writing and story are very entertaining though.

Couldn't put it down!
What a funny, complex, addictive, intriguing book! I could not put this one down. The disability rep (Anna uses a cane) was everything. Add to that complicated friendships, so much delightful queer rep, and "villains" who are more likeable than the "heroes" and this book wound up being my catnip!
I heartily recommend it, but caution readers who are sensitive to violence, torture, and surgery done without patient consent. The witty voice tempered the gore for me, but there are places where some people might have trouble.

Underdog triumph story
The protagonists world is thick with the underbelly of a "heroic reality". Not everyone loves the glossy shine of popular culture and there are real costs involved to make it possible.

Great lessons to be learned!!!
The pace of the story picked up within the second half. I was a little disappointed at the suddenness of the ending. I could also feel for the emotions of the narrator. This could be a great story to learn about how we create boxes for people and how they are to fulfill their purpose in life. I will continue to hope that we don't have to meet the expectations others place upon us.

Not your average super hero story
This day and age every variation and scenario of hero and villain story has been done… but yet this book still manages to find a new spine on it and manages to steer clear of predictable plots and has you completely enthralled and rooting for the villain
