It's so great to see you back! I hope everything is okay after the loss of your grandmother. Remember we can always wait a little longer if you need more time.💘
Apologies for unsubtle plug (and I'm not here claiming I write amazing fantasy books) but I had a YA fantasy come out literally this time last week, on the admittedly slim chance anyone is interested (Hunt For The Raven's Spire by EJ Graham)
For me, Untethered Sky delivered a fully fleshed out story, more well done than many novels I've read, even though it was just a novella. Didn't feel too short at all.
Soooo this has nothing to do with the books you spoke about in this video, however I just finished the winnowing flame series last night and the end made me ugly cry lol. Thank you for recommending these fabulous books on your channel. These are not the only books I picked up after you mentioned them and so far all the books you had liked and mentioned I really enjoyed. So thank you for your time that you spend on your content!!
I really liked Sunlit Man, but I grew up reading library books and I often couldn't start series with the first book. I started Wheel of Time with book 6!
Just wondering if you've read the Tangled Fae book series by Sarah K. L. Wilson? I was looking for a series like The Cruel Prince and found this one. I'm on the second book (out of five) now and it's so good! I almost like it more than The Cruel Prince. I can't find any reviews of it on UA-cam though so it must be a well kept secret. I highly recommend it (so far).
I want to read the Combat Codes trilogy SO BAD but can't find the third book anywhere, even though it came out in 2021... I can't find a single battered paperback or anything... What gives with this, I wonder?
The Thorns Remain is such an interesting case to me, because I think people went in expecting it to be another ACOTAR and it's very much not. So I think it got mismarketed as a romance when really it's more horror in my opinion, and because of that it hasn't found the right audience.
I think that if you are familiar with T.Kingfisher you would not expect another ACOTAR. Haven't read it yet, but it is on my TBR and I expect slow burn horror.
Divine Rivals- So far, so good. I tried to read the paperback Girl From The Other Side. Big fail, I can't read it, vision to poor, I should read it on my Kindle Scribe or on Kindle Cloud Reader on my computer. I want to read VE Schwab. I learned on UA-cam that her being a Potterhead is what got her started writing fantasy. Great. Spy x Family- the novelty is wearing off. Thank you.
I’m So Happy You Mentioned Foxglove Ell Because I Literally Finished It Yesterday And I Absolutely Loved It 5 Stars For Me 📖🦊🧤⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ And now I’m anxiously awaiting Wisteria coming next year in the summer I Wish I Didn’t Have To Wait That Long Because The Way Foxglove ended I Need Wisteria Like Now Lol 😂 Have a Wonderful Day and Happy Reading 📖😊
Shameless self promo for Sword and Mirror. Great middle grade intro to the fantasy genre with a simple magic system and an angsty pre-teen for all those kids in your life. By M. McGehee
It’s ok not to like a Cosmere book. I’m struggling with Mistborn 2. I don’t find that I care about any of the characters. I couldn’t even finish Bands of Mourning. How the same person could write the Stormlight Archives is a mystery to me.

Looked it up and it sounded interesting. Might give the first book a try
@@charliev4156 Honestly, reading it at all means a lot to me so don't worry about being honest if you didn't enjoy it

Thorn Hedge really has my attention after your description. I wonder why she's locked up.
welcome back I am glad to see your videos they are always so well done.

I’m on volume 2 of the deluxe edition of The Girl From the Other Side and I’m LOVING it
Started Spy X Family and Witch Hat because of you :) and I love both :)
I REALLY want to try this, but I can’t eat gluten. What can I substitute for the barley?
Good video. I'm going to have to come back and rewatch though. I'm in a slump and nothing is jumping out at me.
I enjoyed Nightbirds as well! Love that you highlight some lesser known titles.
Yona of the Dawn is so underrated I wanna almost cry
I agree Thorns Remain is so underrated
Great Audiobooks this year.
More Than A Vampire, More Than A God War. If you are a charter driven reader.

Thanks for a great video
Great Video!
Which of these books should I start with? I just lost The Fall of Hyperion

I've just added Bone Smith to my TBR list
It's on my list for Christmas. 🤞 🎅

Thank you for the manga recommendations.
you should really read land of the lustrous (manga) you can watch the anime first then continue on the manga, because it gets a little confusing
Sanderson's female-lead secret projects were outstanding. The male-lead ones were good but not my favorites.
So great to see you back 🥰
I would actually love to buy House of Roots and Ruin. I loved the first book.
The best published book of 2023 in my oppinion is "Blood Over Bright Haven" by M. L. Wang.
I need to read my copy of Bone Smith 🥹

Checked goodreads. Sounds like fun! Added it to my TBR :)

I've been trying to get through Mistborn, the first book. I've had enough of roof hopping. I just cant.
I’ve read all but seven🎉
