    I just saw Razorblade Tears in a free library today and didn't grab it but looked at it for a long time. This was my sign, going back for it.

    OMG!! I have never heard anyone talk about The Measure!! It was my favorite book of last year!! It’s sooooo underrated! I wanted to start a book club just to talk about this book…but I don’t like people enough.🤷🏼‍♀️

    Such an interesting video! I hope you do a part 2 because I hated to see this one end. You gave us a a wide spectrum of stories to consider.

    I love your interest in reading and your singing as you think is charming! Sometimes, when I'm praying I sing like that. It just bubbles out. While I'm shopping or doing errands I'm humming or whistling like that too. LOL

    I always like/love Fredrik Backman books. I assume you read A Man Called Ove….(that was my introduction to the amazing F. Backman- I think it’s a 5 star for me). The Nightingale was a 5 star read for me. I’ve read some of the books you talked about, and I’m adding some to my REALLLY LONG TBR list. Happy that The Measure is #2 on my list!! I think I might be moving it to #1 and The Bee Sting can go to #2. Thanks for another great video. I hope your eye feels better soon.

    Some of your 5 star reads are also on my list so I’m not going to mention those. Here are some of my 5 star read: The Girl with the Louding Voice, Symphony of Secrets, Perfect Peace (very hard read but worth it), Hurricane Summer, One Summer in Savannah, Someday Maybe, 32 Candles, The Dust Bowl Orphans, Solito (audiobook), The Thing About Home and recently released Sweetness in the Skin. Ok I’ll stop there lol

    Allegedly is so good! Tiffany D. Jackson has become one of my favorite authors of all time. Her books always gut punch me.
    Also razorblade tears was sooooooooo good. Perfection.

    @shell1338 2 หลายเดือนก่อน

    I loved Razorblade Tears. It's one of my all time favorite books. Wrong Place Wrong Time was so different. I enjoyed it but found that listening to the audiobook helped with all the time jumps. Another favorite of mine is All My Rage. It's Young Adult but it is so powerful and beautifully written.

    @SavidgeReads 2 หลายเดือนก่อน +1

    Ooh I read Razorblade Tears at the end of last month and loved it. Am going to be reading ALL his other books. All. Of. Them. I loved Black Cake, I have not watched the show, pleased to hear it did it justice… Ooh I might start the show tonight. Allegedly was amazing. I need to read more of her books. The Nickel Boys broke me. The Rachel Incident is a book I’m soooooo excited for. It’s on its way I believe. Honor also sounds amazing. Too many amazing sounding books… that I haven’t got my mitts on yet. Lol.

    • @DezmondZ
      @DezmondZ  หลายเดือนก่อน

      The Rachel Incident really surprised me. I didn’t expect to love it so much. Fingers crossed it doesn’t disappoint you.

  • @Alewo2735
    @Alewo2735 2 หลายเดือนก่อน +4

    Okay Razorblade Tears is an easy 5 stars, but All The Sinners Bleed.....6 stars! That book came after way too many poorly written, problematic, BS thrillers and SA Cosby, a damn lyrical poet of an author comes in with the serial killer thriller to end all serial killer thrillers? *chef's kiss* He's a master.

    I am never gonna get thru this list- but I’m trying! Reading Rachel Incident now. Enjoyable.
    I could NOT finish Wrong Time, Wrong Place. By the time I was 3 days back-done! Too frustrating.
    Great video. I need to hear more singing:)

    • @DezmondZ

      I think that’s the biggest issue most people have with the book (me included lol). So I can understand that.

    Why you have me laughing at 630am watching the beginning of your video! 😅 Great recommendations to add to my TBR. #1 S.A.Cosby fan!
    5 Stars I recommend: JAMES and ERASURE, both by Percival Everett. House in the Cerulean Sea.

    • @DezmondZ
      @DezmondZ  หลายเดือนก่อน

      I have a copy of James, but I haven’t read it yet. I think I’ll bump that one up on the list. I watched the movie adaptation of Erasure, but I might still read the book.
