Ahhhhh!!!! I'm so sad I missed this because I adored Mindwalker!! Damn birthday plans

as if I was so rude to miss this 😂😂

I need help on the zodiac prompt, please. I've scoured dozens of zodiac-based reading lists, and apparently Cancers are not supposed to read gothic or SFF. The few books that even remotely qualify are ones I've already read and didn't particularly like. Do you know of any lists with space goth for Cancers? Or do you have any books you would recommend to an atypical Cancer like myself?

oh i know exactly which prompt you reused and it's one of my favourites too ^^ i'm looking to read house of hunger for said prompt, if i can get hold of it! out of all these recommendations i've only read elatsoe, and i fully agree with your glowing recommendation. it's a book that is exactly what it needed to be, if you know what i mean? it hit all the notes it needed to hit, every sentence was purposeful, clearly crafted with so much love and care for both subject matter and the art of writing itself. ETA my memory sucks, i've also read how to kill your family and thought it was a pretty fun time! agree with the sex and the city meets dexter description; i called it "murder chick lit" to a friend lol. back to back with this i read another book in that same genre, how to kill men and get away with it. they were both 3 stars for me, popcorn reads yknow? wait maybe this is what people mean by "cozy mystery"... anyway, so if you're ever wanting another book with the same vibe, might check that other one out!

I enjoyed Yellowface, hope you do too 📚

Is it too late to get the prompts? I tried the link to the game, but the site wouldn't respond at all.

Great recommendations! Can’t wait for Gothtober 💕

5th omg hoooowww so excited for this year!!

This is my first time doing Gothtober. I'm so excited to do a spooky season readathon. I got my prompts!

So excited for Gothtober, I've been saving books all year for this that I'm hoping fit into the prompts 😂

As always some fantastic recommendations and I'm so so excited for Gothtober this year!!

🔥✨🔭🪐🛸👽🚀👾🧑‍🚀

Omg so many awesome recommendations and yessssss Space Between Worlds needs more love!!!

Loving these books! Do you have any recommendations for the "age/height difference" prompt? Preferably something Gothic-y!

💛💛💛

Yay pot luck! I really liked Things in Jars too, and you’re making me want to reread it now. So many great side characters too. 🤝

I will always put the sentient in gothtober lol. I can be relied upon for that for sure!! I'm really excited for everything Gothtober and the Wakanda recs that will be coming soon :)

The discord and Google docs links don't work 😭

vibe

So excited for this

I recognise that shirt! It look fantastic on you!

I’m excited! I joined last year, so can’t wait to join again ✨

Awesome! Can’t wait

Absolutely amazing opening! Very, very excited for this round! Can't wait to play the game!

💛💛💛

Yay, happy 5th anniversary! Looking forward to Gothtober!

Hi Hannah😊! Awesome theme & loved the intro 😁😁😁. It was brilliant 👍⭐️- can't wait to join you all 😁😁😁🥰!

I'm so excited to be participating for the fifth year!! I love this theme, and it would suit my bestie perfectly so I'll try to rope them in.

My favourite time of year has come again! I'm not even a massive sci-fi fan but I'm in love with the theme, and that intro video was so cool. I can't wait!

This. Sounds. Amazing. Hope to hear about that merch link soon! I'll try to be active on my Insta, but I just moved, and a good 3/4 of my books are still in boxes, so I may not have the energy to dig them out of the storage rooms AND then beautifully photograph the stacks. I may make photo grids of covers instead. I can't WAIT to see the book lists! They make good TBRs even after the readathon!! SF Gothic is something I love and have trouble finding at times.

Such a cool theme ❤

All very exciting 🪐🌌❤👽

Haha i love this, so here for it

So glad you loved Bad Magic, and you've just completely sold me of Locke Lamora - I've owned the first book for YEARS and now I want to chuck in my entire tbr and read it 🌙

🚀🌙

Kylo jump scare

God I really need to pick up more from Andy Weir, and I adore this idea so much!!

The shame of me loving gothic fiction and plays equally but have never read an inspector calls (because we didn't study it in NL). I need to get to it at some point. Love the strange case of dr jekyll and mr hyde! Dracula, one of my faves <3 Northanger abbey is top tier. If we were villains of course!! And I bought horrid in the waypoint books sale and I am excitement. Mina an the undead <3

Great vlog!! The way I've been DRAGGING my feet when it comes to Locke Lamora because I know it's not complete! I loved the first book but I'm scared to continue, plus there's the length and the whole "Great Fantasy Slump of 2024" I've got going on 😂😂

This video popped up in my recommended feed, and it's the first one of all the random recommendations I've gotten that I actually clicked on. If you read every piece of fiction that someone has written, I think it would be really cool for you to make a video describing the actual writing style and prose of the author as a whole, not specific to a particular book. Like I would definitely watch a video critiquing the manner in which a person writes, for example: Do they tend to describe things dryly like a Wikipedia article or are they overly descriptive? Are there writing similarities between the books? *If the author were to write a book about a completely unrelated topic without their name, would you be able to tell by the style alone that it's them writing it?* These types of discussions are what I was hoping this video would have provided.

I will treat myself to something nice when I am finally done. Obviously, it will be a book!

This is a great concept for a vlog series! I am looking forward to the next instalment already. I have been trying to finish the Hamish Macbeth series by MC Beaton for about a year now on audiobook and the end is in sight - two more novels to go (out of 36!) with two novellas/short stories to source after that.

Good morning, thanks for sharing your writing sprint!

Love a feel-good Skulduggery sick read!

Not read A Taste of Gold and Iron but I did read Running Close to the Wind by the same author and... had an interesting time lol

Somehow I've never read An Inspector Calls! And my love for Dracula grows every day, I really need to reread it!! One day I'll read Mina and the undead 😅 CHOCOLAT IS DARK ACADEMIA??!!?!?! Some fab recs!!

"like Shrek it is layered" 💀💀💀
