Monthly Subscription Unboxing - Your Paper Quest!
I’ve read Altered Carbon, and I think my expectations were a bit too high as well. Didn’t do it for me. I’ve never read any of Dan Well’s stuff. Now I’m adding his books to me TBR.
Oh wow! Thanks so much for featuring Driver! I really appreciate it, dude 🙏
Great video as always. Happy Tuesday everyone!
Ooh, so exciting that you picked up the Book of Astea!! I hope you enjoy them whenever you get around to reading! Also, dude, Guns of the Dawn (on audio especially) is still one of my favourite reading experiences. I hope you guys all love it as much as I did.
Liege Killer! I have an homage to that book in Eyes of Empire.
That's awesome, I love that book! No one ever even knows about it, that's so cool!
@@ShelfCentered yeah rarely talked about and I don't think the author is publishing anymore. I have the entire trilogy, it fell off after the first book.
Nice! I need to check out Sullivan's book
It's a good one, very thought-provoking.
@ShelfCentered That is great to know. I will need to get read it!
😮
😬
The first arch of Vinland saga is amazing! I didnt know they made those deluxe editions.
That's so good to hear and yeah, I need to find the rest in these beautiful versions.
Vinland Saga ❤
Yes!!
Great book haul Bryce! Glad you picked up Nomad. 😊
Can't wait man and congrats!
@@ShelfCenteredthank you! 😊
I'm Nomad's Crucible this month. I am hyped to read it
Let me know your thoughts, it looks great and I love Chas.
Quite the haul, Mr. B. Impressed by the newness-to-me quotient.
I'm impressed with myself that I can get new things to you, that's a hard deal to make happen! :D
Happy November! Still stunned over the fact that we're so close to 2025.... mind-boggling. Nice book haul! I was fortunate to receive a gift card recently and I picked up 4 books for myself. As they say in Parks & Rec, "Treat yourself!" Have a great week. Happy Reading everyone!
Hahaha love Parks & Rec and always quote "treat yo'self" but probably too much as you can see... :D Can't believe how fast this year's gone by, it's insane. Good call on treating yourself!
Can't wait for December to start Riven Earth and Becoming a Druid. I'm anxious to see if Hyperion is worth all the hype 🤪 I need that GrimDark. It has Buhelman ❤ Tchaikovsky is on a back burner until I get through more of the stuff I own. I have a feeling after Children of Time that I'll be addicted 😬 Need Falling into Oblivion even before he said that the cover mimics Gandalf and the Balrog 🤭 Just bought the Dissection book. It might just slide into #scifiNovember 🤔 FUN 🎉
So much good stuff in this comment, yeah I agree I already liked Oblivian before the Gandalf and the Balrog and now I think I'm in love with it. Hyperion is top tier. I reread it recently and it was just as good if not better than my first read and Fall of Hyperion was way better than my first read through. I'm excited for the rest. I need to read Buhelman so bad, I have Between two Fires (is that the title?) and need to read more. So much good stuff, can't go wrong really!
So many pretties! I got to grab that Grimdark mag!
For sure, Grimdark mag is always top tier stuff anyway, but especially this issue!
Hi 👋 great November book haul, can’t believe the year almost over lol 😊
So true, it's gone so fast. How are you doing?
CARL!! THEY ARE TALKING ABOUT US ON UA-cam i AM SO EXCITED
Hahaha Queen Donut, you’re here!!
I could see fairy tale series, but they need to add some more debth to the other world that the book sort of glossed over.
That's a good point, the world could definitely use some more depth, we get so much in the "real world" which I loved but yeah, we could use some more of the fantasy world.
I really like the Bob books. The first three are really good in my opinion and book four and five are good but not as good.
That's good to hear, I need to continue the series, I just let so much get in the way once I start a new series
I've been meaning to read Wool for so long now, definitely need to get to it sooner rather than later. And We Are Legion just sounds like such a blast!
Wool is good stuff and We Are Legion just has you laughing so much while being pretty serious in the plot.
📚
📖
Are you a DCC addict like me?
Yup!
Of course!
Great video again! I will have to check some of these out. The Shatner book sounds nuts!
I need to read way way more sci-fi!!!
Really looking forward to 70 - 61.
No I think you’ll be much more interested in 60-51 😅😉
Great video. Can't wait for the rest of the list. I need to read Wool for how much I loved the Silo tv show. Rebecca Ferguson is stellar in that show. Season 2 releases soon. Can't wait.
Asimov ❤
I need to read so much more, Caves and Robots for sure.
@@ShelfCentered Haven't read them honestly but i really hope u read more Gwynne 😁
Great video Bryce. That Way of Kings rip off is insane! 😂
Crazy people I'm sure just trying to make a quick buck. That's the level of effort that went into it at least
happy reading, great list!
Thank you, you too!
Man you’re lists have been hurting my feelings so far 😂. I’ve seen a few of my all time favorites at the bottom already.
Haha, sorry! I'm hoping it's because the rest are just THAT good cause I liked these so far, I really did even though I know I focused a bit more on the negatives.
Crazy to think that the AI door has barely even opened too.
Yeah, good point, it's scary
At least hardcover library can be salvaged if you know how to be sneaky….but paperback is basically a lost cause.
Haha so true on the paperback, I'll have to go for hardcover from now on!
Great TSN as always!!
Thanks again!
Snake cover is cool haha
I love it!
Another fantastic video! Thank you Bryce!
My pleasure!
I’m reading Way of Kings (the Sando version) right now, and really curious to check out the fake version to compare. I can’t believe the audacity of the person.
Seriously, the audacity! It's not like you're gonna make friends like this, so true
Thank you!! 🎉
You are so welcome!
Leery and weary are not synonynms. But it's interesting how often people mix those up.
That's a good point and I used the wrong one, though I guess I'm pretty tired of AI issues as well! Thanks for teaching me something I've been getting wrong for just about forever!
That is funny. To me, it seems like people combine “leery” and “wary” to get “weary.”
I just picked up Snow Crash from the library because I have seen a fair amount of people say it’s really good, I always go into books with low expectations when I see them praised a lot. Fingers crossed I at least enjoy it haha.
😱 people fell for that shite?!
I don’t know if people actually did but knowing people, I’m just about 100% sure at least some did
@@ShelfCentered 🤦♀️
Great news update. I feel maybe if Fairy Tale had 6-8 episodes then it would be a perfect length for this book. 10 episodes make me weary of a couple of filler or lower-quality episodes. Loved the book, glad I read it. Happy reading everyone and have a great weekend!
Yes exactly, I could definitely see 6-8 and I feel bad Fairy Tale got sucked into my rant because it was really other series I've been watching where I've been frustrated by the length. I just finished True Detective season 3 and I loved it, but I just kept thinking it could be so much better if it were half the amount of episodes.
I honestly thought it was a joke but you can actually read parts of the story online. Totally crazy
Right! I had to check the date!
This must be the most unenthusiastic 'favourites' video I have ever seen and I love it hahahah. Appreciate that you can still find the good in these, even if some were a true struggle for you. Looking forward to the next part of the list!
Hahaha you're so right and I did actually like these books, but I'm getting called out, rightfully so about it. I did focus a bit much on the negatives of these books, but it does get better!
Just finished The First Law, really excited to get into the last 6 books!!
Yay! It's so good, let me know how the rest go!
I disagree about Snow Crash, AND NOW WE MUST GO TO WAR! But seriously, I really enjoyed this, you have a fantastic delivery and I'm looking forward to the rest. I couldn't get Foundation, myself, maybe I'm too dumb but I much preferred I , Robot, Caves of Steel etc.
To WARRRR!!! Haha, yeah, I firmly believe I am in the minority on that one. I probably need to give some other Stephenson books a read and then go back to see what I think with some grounding. Thanks so much and sorry to be so negative in this first video. I promise I liked these books (though I focused on the negatives ... arguably too much), but I really liked a lot more coming up!
I guess there are not 100 loved sci-fi books, the first 10 or all here because we had to have 100 books. Not one "I loved this book" at all. I respect the honesty. Maybe you could have called it a top 100 list but just started at 50. Opening line "I have not read 100 sci-fi books that I enjoyed, so my top 100 starts at 50."
You're not wrong and I definitely focused arguably too much on the negatives of these, but as I mentioned with each one, I did like them. I didn't say these were my top 100 books I loved, I just said my top 100 so we're starting with liked. Fantasy, I'm a bit more well-read in so I got to start with my loves in that list. Thanks always for your opinion, please always give me this great honesty, I really love it and it makes the channel better. I want to be thoughtful about the decisions I make for the channel.
I tracked it down in my audible library and it got run over by Malazan last December 😬 Thanks for reminding me if it 🙌🏻🤓🙌🏻 There's this fun Kevin Hearn/Delilah Dawson series that pokes hood fun at classic fairy tales. Fun review 🎉
And I already own it 🙌🏻🤓🤪
Happy to see how well-read you are! Most of those are on my TBR, except Foundation by Asimov because I'm afraid that there'll be simply way too little plot for me to enjoy it. The only one I read is 2001: A Space Odyssey and I quite liked it, although it started quite slow. Still a 4* read for me. Keep em coming!
Another killer review Bryce!
