My family wouldn't dare giving me books for Christmas. They would have no idea what to get me. But I did get a gift card and bought the Six of Crows duology with it.
I got one book by a Danish author/translator called Mich Vraa, The Stranger Diaries by Elly Griffiths, and Patriot by Alexei Navalny. I also got a gift card and ordered the hardback editions of volume 3 and 5 of the Heartstopper series, which should be arriving next week. So a nice little book haul here. 😊
The Fern Brady book was really good , I’m in the middle of late autism adhd diagnosis so it was helpful to me . I’ve read a few game of thrones I think I’ve read 4 of them I need to go back to them.
Im planning on reading the area X series in the new year! I didn't get any books for Christmas but i did get a heated blanket, which i would highly recommend for reading under!
Hi, hope you had a good Christmas! I’m watching this viral with my best friend. We will rewatch this together when we next meet up as it is part of our ritual! We always want to watch together!
The Flood is the first volume of the Blackwater series by Michael McDowell, he's american and wrote the script for Beetlejuice. Blackwater is an amazing literary horror epic. These covers for the replubication are stunning. I have read every book he has written, and they are all amazing southern gothic horror. On my way to get these new covers ❤
Definitely push through In Memoriam even if it’s tough for you because of the sadness because I promise the end of the story is worth it. (That’s not a spoiler- just letting you know it’s worth it to get through the sad bits) the author also does this incredible thing where she includes snippets of the roll of honor and it lists deaths in the war just like the newspapers used to and it was such a powerful thing to add to the book!!
The Area X trilogy is GREAT, but I would recommend reading the whole thing. Annihilation is very good but rather myopic, I didn’t fully understand what was happening until book 3. But definitely worth the read!
I Capture the Castle is one of my favorites, your mom has great taste! I got myself that same Game of Thrones set with a gift card. I love the covers, but I have taken them out of the box and realized the first and fourth books are different heights than the rest of the series. Just why 😭
❤📚🎄❤️ I'm glad you had a Merry Christmas. Such wonderful gifts. 😊 My husband got me The First Bright Thing by J. R. Dawson and the boxed set of The Mortal Instruments by Cassandra Clare. He also got me BIG Vegan Flavor by Nisha Vora.
All books about WWWI make me sad and most of all angry for the waste of human life. IM is a good read. I also recommend Bird Song. One quote hit me. They said the food in the trenches was bad but it was better than what we got at home. I received a copy of Hamlet and We'll prescribe you a cat. I sent my daughter Water Moon on pre order. Happy 2025 to you all. Healthy, wealthy and wise. ❤
Please do not end the Read around the world challenge, but if you do...is there a way to transcribe all the books titles you have recommended for each country? Asking for a friend 🤭
I was so disappointed with In Memoriam! The way lgbtq culture during was time was handled was so beyond reality that it frustrated me and I couldn't enjoy it after that. People were highly persecuted, abused, attacked, and killed...and then for the sake of a story boys could be openly all over each other? Nope.
"I capture the castle" is my number 1 all time favorite :) enjoy it !
Thank you!!
Yay for In Memoriam! My favourite read of 2024 but was definitely a tear jerker, I hope you love it 💖
I hope so too!💚
