Honestly so happy with all the choices! And I’m so surprised that’s the one he picked 😂 especially because he hates you’ve got mail lol. Only problem is I want to read all these books now and still have to finish my October TBR 🙈😂
I'm not a sci-fi fan, but I absolutely LOVED "Gideon the Ninth" and the entire Locked Tomb series. For Gideon, I do recommend giving the glossary in the back a look-through before reading, because some of the terms will explain the setting a bit more and solve just a bit of confusion. And be prepared to be constantly confused; I swear, Tamsyn Muir's MO is to make us feel like we finally understand something, and then pull the rug out from under us XD I also really enjoyed "For the Wolf," but it's definitely more atmospheric than plot-heavy. There's one scene that when I read it literally gave me chills from how it was described. And I really hope you enjoy "Hart and Mercy!" It's definitely a nice bit of fluff with mild fantasy to give the brain a break. November I'm going to continue my spooky books, but also delve into my more wintery reads. Some of them are "Jane Eyre," "Wintersong," "A Dark and Drowning Tide," "Down Comes the Night," a re-read of "The Book Thief"....
Ooh ok thats a good shout r.e. the glossary! will definitely be reading that before jumping in. It's part of why I haven't read it yet because I am afraid I wont understand it 😂 but I have heard such great things so I really want to give it a try! For the Wolf sounds like it will be right up my street, I kind of felt like One Dark Window was a very vibes>plot book too and I loved it! Hoping this one will be the same. Hart and Mercy just gives me such You've got Mail vibes but make it a little bit fantasy and that just makes my old little millennial heart so happy 😂 I done my Jane Eyre reread this month and honestly loved every minute of it. I haven't read it since I was 15 but always said it was a favourite, glad to say that's still true, even if I did see Mr Rochester in a very different light now that i'm an adult lol. OK, I had never heard of Wintersong but this first line of the synopsis is all I need to know "The last night of the year. Now the days of winter begin and the Goblin King rides abroad, searching for his bride" - SOLD! (can you tell the Labyrinth is basically my Roman Empire and Bowie was my first crush, but in that movie specifically 😂). I haven't read The Book Thief for years! i do have my old copy though so may pick that up at some point over the colder months. As always you've added a few to my never ended TBR 😂💞
@@Booksandmoe If you don't just want to straight up read the glossary, you can keep a list of the words and read the entries as the words come up. I just know I got so much more clarity after I read the book and then read the glossary. Take "Wintersong" with a grain of salt; it was my first recent (i think I read it in 2021?) experience with mis-marketing. The "chase" through the Labyrinth doesn't even take up half the book, the majority of the book is about what happens after the chase. I'm re-reading it though because I didn't like it as much back then, but I remember loving the author's actual writing (she wrote "Zhara"), so I want to give it another try, especially since I now know what to expect.
Oh ok noted! It sounds like a fun read! And definitely be referencing the glossary reading Gideon 😂 I just know I’m going to be confused but it seems like it’s going to be such a good read
Thank you! And yes I have borrowed the audio from Libby so definitely will be immersive reading this one - feel like I’ll need to take notes to keep up 🤓📝😂
I loved Warbreaker, it might be my favorite Sanderson. We have such similar taste ❤ or at least we read similar genres. I wasn’t a huge fan of For the Wolf, but I hope you love it!
Oh this is so good to hear r.e. Warbreaker! I’m really excited to pick it up because I’ve heard some really great things! I’ve heard a few people say For the Wolf is very much vibes over plot so here’s hoping I vibe with it 🤞🏼😂💕
Good luck! I hope you love all these books. Warbreaker I thought was AMAZING. One of my favorite books ever although I don't think that's a common opinion. I hope you love it as much as I did and I hope brandosando writes the sequel which I believe he said he'd do after stormlight 5 🤞
ooh I didnt know there was going to be a sequel! That's good to know! I do think I will enjoy it given the synopsis, and I adored The Final Empire so hoping this one will be a hit as well! 💞
I have a copy of Gideon the Ninth at my library and I have been wanting to read it. I think since my TBR is already pretty good sized, I will wait to hear what you think about it.
"A man called Ove" is a Swedish book that has been translated to many languages because of its success and it was also a debut novel. I read it in Swedish and it so so good, very emotional ❤ (I was hoping you pick A Darker Shade of Magic, I love that series to death😁)
Ah ok! That makes sense! I’ve seen so many people say it’s such an amazing read so I’m really looking forward to it! I want to read Beartown by him as well. And I really wanted to pick A Darker Shade of Magic but I need to finish a few series first, including a V. E. Schwab one 😂 but it’s very high on my to read list- depending on how the month goes, I may try to squeeze it in lol 💕
i’m obsessed with the way you say wolf
😂😂 honestly the Northern Irish accent is interesting to say the least 😂😂
❤📚📚❤️
Looks like a great reading month!
Our husbands continuously surprise us. 😅

So excited that you have Uprooted on your list!!! I hope you get to it. I truly loved that book!!
Yay! I’m so excited to read it! I love Naomi Novik’s writing so I feel like I’m going to live this one. 💕
Backman is my favorite author. You’re on for an (emotional!) treat!
If a book is going to break my heart, it's sure to be a favourite! 😂 I'm so excited to read it!
I just picked up A Man Called Ove, can't wait to read it!
I hope you love it! It’s been on my radar for ages so I’m glad to finally get to it 💕💕
Great video! A great tbr mix! I hope you enjoy Gideon the Ninth. It is a bit confusing but a lot of fun. I recommend the audiobook.

All of Elsie Silver books are set in Canada - and as a Canadian I promise you we aren’t American!
Oops!! You're so right (it's been a while since I read Chestnut Springs). Please ignore my blunder 💞
