    The Sudden Appearance of Hope sounds amazing! I'll have to get my hands on a copy of Gena/Finn. Fable Haven sounds fun! I love adding new book titles to my TBR when I watch your videos :)

    did you know Claire North has two pseudonyms (Kate Griffin & Catherine Webb) under which she writes adult urban fantasy/paranormal books? just thought i'd mention it since i figured you'd be interested in those

    @SharonVictoria90 8 років тому +5

    I was very hesitant to start ACOMAF, until I read that it portrayed PTSD in quite a respectful way. I suffer from PTSD myself, so I wanted to check it out. I'm currently only about 57 pages in, but I already recognise so many things. Certain things are so painfully familiar and real, that I can only congratulate SJM on being such a great writer for being able to make that come across.

  • @mrgreenleafx
    @mrgreenleafx 8 років тому +4

    Apollo's flaming pansexuality made me soooo happy rick Riordan's writing has come so far in diversity ☺️

    • @reegankay9799
      @reegankay9799 8 років тому

      What's pansexuality?

    • @cowboypuppy
      @cowboypuppy 8 років тому +2

      +Reegan Kay it's a sexualitu where people love anyone regardless of gender or sex!! (You could also interpret Apollo as bisexual but personally I see him more as pan idk) heres a link for more info en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pansexuality

    • @reegankay9799
      @reegankay9799 8 років тому +2

      alecslibrary Soo, it's bisexuality, basically.

    • @cowboypuppy
      @cowboypuppy 8 років тому +4

      +Reegan Kay or.... Consider: instead of refusing to educate yourself with something as simple as a Wikipedia article and refusing a helpful attempt to help you understand the infinite and indefinite range of human gender and sexuality and turning to being unnecessarily snarky in UA-cam comments you could:
      ·read a magazine
      ·pet a dog
      ·water a plant
      ·find some memes
      ·draw a picture
      ·play a sport
      ·go shopping
      ·call your grandmother
      ·educate yourself with the very simple links someone provided for you; here's one now! - fuckyeahbisexuals.tumblr.com/pansexualityvsbisexuality

    • @reegankay9799
      @reegankay9799 8 років тому +1

      +Gisselle Marin there are only 2 genders. Transgender people still identify with a gender. Being attracted to 2 genders (bisexuality) is exactly the same as being attracted to all genders.

    I actually read The First Fifteen Lives in May because of how much you praised it and it's one of the first books in what might be YEARS that I immediately wanted to reread, so thank you for that! I'm very excited for The Sudden Appearance of Hope now.

  • @TheBookishGinger
    @TheBookishGinger 8 років тому +2

    I feel like I'm one of the only people who hasn't read ACOMAF... lol So going to go read that now. I've just heard too many amazing things! I also read The Hidden Oracle in May and loved it! And just finished Truthwitch at the beginning of June and loved it as well.

  • @kaitieskates
    @kaitieskates 8 років тому

    Your love of middle grade is inspiring. I read Escape from Mr. Lemoncello's Library this month and loved it! I forgot how much fun middle grade adventure can be! The last one I read before that was just ok-not very exciting and very predictable. Sure, the good guy wins in the end in pretty much all middle grade but it's so fun! Excited for more.
    Second favorite after that was Cress. Oh man, definitely enjoying the Lunar Chronicles. I read Fairest over the weekend and it was interesting but I don't think it really added anything to the story but Cress was great and I'm very interested to see where we go with Winter. Happy reading!

    @nickijay4084 8 років тому

    ACOMAF was amazing and it gave me the biggest hangover. I have Fablehaven but haven't read it yet. I want to read it but it's not high on my priority list. I read The Raven Boys also this month and it was good but not great for me. I was more interested in Blue more than anything.

  • @JessMcGlynn

    I really need to get around to ACOTAR and ACOMAF because I haven't read of them yet despite owning (and being extremely excited for both) because life always gets in the way. And of course reading slumps. *Sigh* The struggle is real 😞

  • @katiestewart7926
    @katiestewart7926 8 років тому

    I read The Raven King this month (among other things), I enjoyed it more than the first three and understood why it has a big fanbase more than i did before. I'm a bit like you that i enjoyed ACOTAR but it's kinda faded from my memory, but I still want to read ACOMAF and it has so many rave reviews- but the size intimidates me a little.

  • @luvBB4lyf

  • @rachelravenclaw5347
    @rachelravenclaw5347 8 років тому

    I read eight books in May too which was surprising because I had exams up until the 19th. My favourites were probably Anna Dressed in Blood by Kendare Blake and Clockwork Prince by Cassandra Clare, and maaaaaybe Throne of Glass by Sarah J. Maas. I gave almost every book four stars though, I think I need to start being tougher with my ratings!

  • @tovaportmann
    @tovaportmann 8 років тому

    1. A Storm of Swords

    5. Of Mice and Men
    6. Life and other near death experiences

    @MaddeWellRead 8 років тому

    I work in the Youth Services department and the beautiful cover of Wolf Wilder always caught my eye, sorry to hear you didn't enjoy it. But it seems that it was made up for by the other amazing books! I mostly thought people were gushing over ACOMAF because it was steaming but its nice to hear that it is more than that.

    It's all about those female friendships! I'm still pretty tentative about reading ACOTAR and ACOMAF. I think at this point it's just been so hyped up that I would be easily let down by it..... I'm not completely writing it off but it's definitely not on the top of my tbr listm

  • @raparperi11
    @raparperi11 8 років тому

    Since you liked Fablehaven so much, you should try Septimus Heap series by Angie Sage (if you haven't read them already). They have the same feel as Harry Potter and the Philosopher's Stone!

  • @JohannaSusanne

    I can't wait for Trials of Apollo but sadly it has to wait for a bit since I'm still going through the Percy Jackson series and then I have to go through the other series before I can get to this one but all of those books are definitely my goal for this year :)

  • @mystorytoo8212
    @mystorytoo8212 8 років тому

    When I saw that you picked up The Wolf Wilder I was so conflicted because I was so happy you were going to read Katherine Rundell but stressed because that book was suuuuch a disappointment (that pains me to say omg) after her second book Rooftoppers which was literally the most beautiful book I ever read, like if I could make every person ever read that book I would! So please don't be put off by TWW! So glad you had such a good reading month!

    @snazzydarcyreads 8 років тому

    Holy guacamole The Sudden Appearance of Hope sounds damn good.
    ACOMAF absolutely SMASHED ACOTAR in the face.
    Truthwitch sounds exactly like my kind of series - friendship first is something I've been needing in my reading life.

  • @DontHaveaDegreeinReading
    @DontHaveaDegreeinReading 8 років тому +2

    I have not read ACOMAF, but I can appreciate an author showing how traumatic events affect their characters negatively. As you said most characters just "brush it off". For my speech class we had to do a eulogy on a fictional character and I, of course, chose Harry Potter. The more I thought about HP's death the more I realized how haunted he must be by all the awful things that have happened to since a VERY young age. I believe if HP was a real person that it would be very likely that he would have been suicidal after seeing so many people he loved and cared about die for him. As an adult now, I would love to have seen if affect him more than it did in the novels.

    • @aziangurl723
      @aziangurl723 8 років тому

      I honestly believe Harry's PTSD was very apparent. From books 1-3 he does face terrifying events, but nothing really traumatizes him until GoF where he witnesses Cedric's murder. In OotP, he has nightmares, trouble sleeping, triggers that remind him of the maze and what happened, etc. He's also facing more stress from being labeled a liar and dealing with an abusive authority figure (Umbridge). Ootp is a dark book because of Harry's PTSD. However, he still has friends, he has people who genuinely love him, and he knows that. The happiness he feels around those he loves helps him overcome his PTSD, and I think Rowling did a good job when writing this book.

    • @DontHaveaDegreeinReading
      @DontHaveaDegreeinReading 8 років тому
