So up there with you on Fourth Wing and often feel like I'm out in the woods by myself on this one, lol. I DNF'd it, twice. And definitely start with Mistborn to get into Sanderson.

I read the Wishing Game by Meg Shaffer a couple months ago and it was so good! I didn’t know about her new book you mentioned in this video. Now I’m so excited!

Fourth Wing was definitely a disappointment for me. I didn’t hate it but was very underwhelmed. Although we kept being told how dangerous it was, it didn’t actually feel that way (it’s no GOT!) On a more positive note, I just finished listening to The Lost Bookshop and really enjoyed it, although I’d say the magical realism element definitely feels secondary to what’s more of a lit fic book. I didn’t really know anything about it before picking it up so had zero expectations and it was a pleasant surprise! Fave read of the year so far for me is The Sword of Kaigen ❤

i’ve been seeing the unmaking of june farrow everywhere for so long!!! just bought it because you loved it, we have similar book taste so i’m so excited to read it!

I agree with what you said about witches!

I absolutely love the Emily Wilde's...books!!!

I have been wanting to reread narnia it’s been so long since I’ve read the entire series!

I loved the lost bookshop! Definitely worth the read

I picked up “June Farrow” when it ran a sale not long back on Kindle. I started it yesterday and I have maybe 40 pages left. Once again your book recommendations don’t miss!

Omgosh! I’m a big thriller person and I needed something light hearted and sweet, I read the Letter Tree by Rachel Fordham. It reminded me a lil of divine rivals mixed with romeo and juliet, its closed door too. You should give it a try!

I loved The Unmaking of June Farrow, I read it this year and definitely want to read more by that author!

I think dystopia is actually sci-fi

it's weird isn't it? Definitely does seem like the older I get the faster time goes. Crazy !!

Please read My Lovely Wife by Samantha Downing... Its an unputdownable thriller.. You don't want to miss it!!!!!!

4th wing took 2 takes to finish. I tried the sequal was a waste of money. Definitely overhyped.

Ouch!!! You didn’t like my favourite series of all time!!! 😂 That’s cool. The Skyward series is Y.A. Sci-fi and not part of the Cosmere so it probably isn’t the best to start with. I hope that it hasn’t put you off trying his other books. I’m off to go categorising my mushroom collection. M-Bot for life 😊

Have you read Red Rising?

I wonder if I need to read The brothers Hawthorne before reading The grandest game. Because I did like The final gambit, but I have heard only bad reviews about The brothers Hawthorne, so I'd like to skip this one. Part of your world is reall nice and I think you would enjoy it, but the 'sequel' Yours truly is very different (smut, dramaaa) and I didn't like it.

100% agree on your opinions of the final gambit, brothers hawthorne AND fourth wing! 🫣👏🏼
