I love your book haul vids...your lists always have different books than what most other booktubers are talking about and they always sound so cool. So thankful for you!
The Blacktongue Thief is a great audiobook narrated by the author. Listening to the pronunciations helped in this fantasy world, plus he sings the songs beautifully.
Thanks for all the great recs Tori! Navola sounds really cool. I should be good until the end of the year at least now :). I'm reading Service Model by Adrian Tchaikovsky, it's really good - I love robot adventures.
I loved Navola! I was in the mood for a slow burn political fantasy and this hit the spot. I bought the special edition from Broken Binding right after. I hope there's a sequel.
Excited for you to get to The Blacktongue Thief! It's one of my favorites - I definitely think The Daughters' War is even better if you've read The Blacktongue Thief first. Also super excited to hear what you have to say about The Gods Below - it's on my radar but I'm waiting to pull the trigger until I've heard more impressions
New subscriber here😃so many amazing recs in this video! I'm a newer sci-fi reader and hearing you talk about the Sun Eater books makes me want to pick up Empire of Silence, like, today!! It sounds so good. I felt the same way about the Bone Shard Daughter as you did, and am definitely curious about the Gods Below. Also, Helm of Midnight is sitting on my shelf right now...thank you for making amazing bookish content!
Aaah it makes me so so so happy to see how excited you are about Asunder! And yes, it definitely shares an aesthetic vibe with The Helm of Midnight and also reminds me heavily of Jay Kristoff's style 👀ENJOY!! Personally also very eager to try out Navola, The Spice Gate and An Academy for Liars, pleeease let them live up to their potential hahah. Happy reading!! 🥰
I absolutely loved "the Blacktongue Thief" but couldn't get through "The Daughter's War" which is a prequel (even though I was so excited for it!) I'm looking forward to seeing what you think of all of these great picks!
The Sky on Fire was one of my favorite books of the year- which is insane bc I’ve also been reading The Stormlight Archive AND Between Earth & sky trilogy!
New subscriber and love your energy, and recommendations! Asunder sounds similar to the Edinburgh Nights series by T.L. Huchu...starts with Library of the Dead in dystopian Scotland, with an endearing teen ghost talker, Ropa Moyo in a world of magic. I'm awaiting the 4th book in this series. They are easy, fun reads!
Love your videos....I am totally a newbie to fantasy! I am reading Fonda Lee Jade City triology! Just from your videos..I probably have 75 books on my TBR......when will I get to them???? It's ALL good!!
I just bought all four of the Long Price quartet! I'm almost finished with my first reading of The Expanse- and LOVING it! So I went and bought everything I could find by Daniel Abraham. Also got The Dagger and The Coin series. Sooo nervous about The Mercy of Gods....
I really enjoyed Asunder - it felt different from what I usually read so I enjoyed the experience. Looking forward to hearing your thoughts about it after you’ve read it!
What's the title of the music of your intro? I added Navola by Paolo Bacigalupi in my to-read list in my Goodreads account. Thanks for introducing Kerstin Hall.
@@ToriMorrow I’d say great twists and atmosphere but I didn’t feel connected to the characters. There were so many and they were just “there”. Solid 3.5 for me.

I read "Navola" and loved it. It's slow and intense. (This was the first time I read anything by this author.)
I'm 100 pages into "Empire of Silence". So far so good.
Yay! Please keep me updated! I hope it continues to be a good read for you 🙌🏽
I also picked up The Black Tongued Theif. It sounds so good. Your book haul is making me go out and buy to add to my TBR pile. 😊😊😊

Navola sounds amazing! I read the first book of the author and really like it!
Navola by Paolo Bacigalupi got me intrigue.
The Sky on Fire was one of my favorite books of the year- which is insane bc I’ve also been reading The Stormlight Archive AND Between Earth & sky trilogy!

I added Navola by Paolo Bacigalupi in my to-read list in my Goodreads account.

Really liked The Blacktongue Thief. Hobbit vibes with surprisingly dark moments
Hey Tori i was so curious about the black tongue thief. I still may get it 🤔 . Sounds good
It does sound really good! If you end up reading it, would love to hear your thoughts ❤️
The one adventure book everyone must read where a black hero is projected very authentically is Alien from Earth by Sobers Rodrigues. Its so awesome.
😮 doing research
ive been waiting all day to eat my soup and watch thisss
Ahh stop, I appreciate you 🥹❤️
I was trying to save these videos for a rainy day but I couldn't
I just finished an academy of liars. One thing she can do is ATMOSPHERE.
Yes!! That’s the one thing I’m most looking forward to. How did you enjoy the book overall?? 👀
@@ToriMorrow I’d say great twists and atmosphere but I didn’t feel connected to the characters. There were so many and they were just “there”. Solid 3.5 for me.
GOT + GodFather = ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐
It sounds so epic!
I have already put a hold on Navola at my library.
Started Navola (page 63) and am loving it. This a book up for discussion cause it is different in a good way. Finished Navola and loved it...5 stars!
Your shelves! Did a reorganization happen? 😳
Not a big one! Just unhauled some books and made room for new ones 😁
Well, now my tbr hates you! I love you though 😂❤
The sky on fire was fun but nowhere near the same level as chorus of dragons for me, probably that’s 5 books and this was just a standalone
Two in one week?! You spoil us! 🫶🏼
