I loved this collection the 1st 3 I was a bit I don't no but as I got into the book I probably love same as you the ladder one good, one for the road. Children of the corn I have the next collection already

❤ Just found your channel! Awesome recommendations.

38 year Constant Reader here. Excellent video!

I still need to read this one! Love the review and the way you structure these videos. I’m particularly excited about Quitters, Jerusalem and One For The Road

I didn’t realize Stephen King wrote Children of the Corn. I remember that movie freaking me out as a little kid.😂

Great collection. Quitters Inc is my personal favorite of the bunch, but so many good ones.

THANKS SO MUCH FOR THIS VIDEO!!!! So excited to read it in the future. Once I'm done with Different Seasons then I will allow myself to buy another SK book. Currently reading Salems Lot and loving it (suck suck suck 🧛‍♂️) !!

I like your review and agree with you however no mention of the prequel series "earth unaware" "earth afire" "earth Awakens" "the Swarm" and " the Hive"...I love beginnings and how everything started.....why did we go to war in the first place, who is Mazer Rackham ...why is he such a big deal...

I'm sorry I haven't read it, but it's on my list for January. This book has been sitting on my bookshelf for a while. Great video!

I just finished Fools Fate last night and can’t wait to move on to Rainwild.

The Conqueror by Georgette Heyer is terrific and follows William the Conqueror from birth through the assault and conquering of England in 1066. It is historically accurate with some fictional characters. She also wrote An Infamous Army featuring the battle at Waterloo.

I still need to read the 3rd book in the Passage trilogy And I also wanna read The Ferryman

Hyperion Cantos has excellent world building in Sci Fi genre, although the last book was absolute dog water !

I’m sure I’m in for a treat when I get to this book. I’m glad you’re doing these quick review videos.

War and Peace. My favorite with Jane Eyre.

Thank you for recommending "Forever" and "The summer guest". ❤️ They blow me away.

love the idea of this video, plus I had very similar feelings after finishing the series.

I don’t know, Josh . . . I couldn’t tell if you liked Assassin’s Fate. 😂 It was wonderful to relive the emotions of that sublime ending as you eloquently described your state of mind upon arriving there. Thank you!

Wow does this still hold true, this book as the pinnacle? I started Fool’s Fate yesterday… I am sure you realized by now if it was the pinnacle there are plenty of books that might get you a few feet short of planting that flag!! GGK of course, Warlord Chronicles, Memory, Sorrow & Thorn, Boudica :Dreaming series, Malazan & The Wars of Light & and Shadow ( these last two I am tackling in 2025).

It's been a while since I read this book. I read this last trilogy in RotE as it was being released. I think this was published in 2017. I didn't even really do Goodreads in 2017. I think it's almost time to re-read the whole series!

Even though Robin Hobb books are typically very slowly paced, the payoff is so worth it. Definitely one of my top 1-3 series of all time.

My favourite fantasy series and boy has it left an impact on my reading, I’ve always been a character driven reader (it’s not what you do or where you go, but who your with.. right!) but no fantasy series has had the impact on me that RotE has had. So I completely understand how you are feeling atm, I recommend a complete change of genre to reset your emotions and mindset for a little while ☺️

I agree about the emotional impact of the ending. I had a few problems with how she got us there in the last book, but mostly I forgive or am willing to overlook them, (Spoiler coming: to get rid of an immediate threat to their tower, the antagonists attack Fitz with a weapon which will take effect over the course of several months? They prove generally to be inept, which I didn’t like, but this one point struck me as being simply a plot device.)

Let’s gooooooo I had a very similar experience with this a couple months ago. I had high expectations for a stuck landing but I never thought it would move me as much as it did. Just perfect 💪

I have so much to say about this book….its been 2 months and I’m still more than unhappy with how much this last trilogy ruined the series for me.

I have always been a bit intimidated by the series and haven't picked it up yet. I found a buddy to read it with and we are planning to start in January. This video made me so excited to dive into Robin Hobb! Thank you!

Haven't gotten to this book yet, but I'm 150 pages into Fool's Quest

I'm looking forward to read that Neil Gaiman book. You definitely need to do more short books and novellas(up to 300 pages) recommendations for those of us that really have little time to read, but we want to really use that time well.

New Subscriber here. I loved the video and your insights. My top 10 (I'm not including collections) 10: Carrie 9: the Long Walk 8: Salem's Lot 7: Misery 6: Cujo 5: Dark Half 4: Firestarter 3: Under the Dome 2: the Running Man 1: It

Great review! I love this novel, just read it for the second time and enjoyed it more.

These just keep adding more and more to my TBR lol Forever and The Summer Guest definitely getting added. A few of these were already on it thanks to your other reviews 😅

Oliver Wiswell by Kenneth Robert’s is a magnificent tale about the American Revolution told from the side of a Tory loyalist. I read this as a sophomore in high school and it opened my eyes to the notion that there are two sides to every story and history is told by the winners. Kenneth Robert’s is an excellent historical fiction writer and this is my recommendation to you. Ciao

Adding this to my TBR. I haven’t read any GGK yet, but I know he’s one of your favorite authors, so I have to give him a shot.

I watched the whole video because I’m a super Red Fury fan.😂

Sword of Kaigen is on my TBR and I can’t wait to read it!

I need to pick up those Megan Lindholm/Robin Hobb books. I’m finishing up The Farseer Trilogy now and love it.

Okay now I have to read GGK. I also loved The Passage trilogy so will have to check out Cronin's other works. I've had Atonement for years but am yet to read it as I saw the film. Might have to add it to my neverending TBR. I'm very much enjoying your lists. Looking forward to the next.

Sounds like a good month of reading!

I too have read The Hobbit more than any other book.

The sci-fi police is here to issue you a written warning for dangerously low levels of sci-fi! 👮‍♂🚀📚 (I still enjoyed this video)

I started King with The Shining and fell in love with his writing!!! I've read Carrie and Salem's Lot since(loved both!) Can't wait to dive in fully!

I love hearing your passion for these books 👌

Love Needfull things, but as my first novel set in Castle Rook I got several spoilers from other Castle Rock books.

Follow up question - with Never Flinch set to release in 2025, I haven't read the Bill Hodges Trilogy or any of the Holly Gibney books yet. Do you think the ideal reading order would be Bill Hodges first, then Holly Gibney, or a different order? And are there an supplemental books you would recommend adding in?

Its a great book, but somewhat jarring in terms of its differences to Enders Game. Still very good, but I think could have been written without Enders Game.

I can't agree more. In the audio version Card admits that he was tasked to write a trilogy. So he decided to break Xenocide into two books. He carries on the saga in children of the mind. However the ending is not the only thing I don't like. Bringing Peter back by using the "Outside" was in my humble opinion a lazy plot device to bring back a character that we don't get much actual time with in previous books. Overall not a great effort on Cards part.

The stand - evil tRUMPists to Vegas, normies to Boulder

Great review! I enjoyed the comparison style.

Thank you
