I love that you did this tag this year, Lezlie! So much variety in your reading. I love it! Sounds like you're having a good reading year so far.
Wishing you so many more good reads in the second half too. 🖤📚
Thank you so much, Nakia!! :D
Loved this tag! The Redemption of Morgan Bright sounds really good. I am going to check that one out. I don't know why almost every tag asks who your favorite fictional crust is. Almost noone ever has a fictional crush. I don't think I have ever crushed on anyone in a book. I have liked characters but I don't crush on them.
I'm guessing the original creator of the tag might have been a romance fan, lol.
I've been wondering about The Butcher and The Blackbird. All the books you listed do sound pretty interesting.
Might break my BookTube hiatus to do this tag. 👀
You're making me nervous to read The Angel of Indian Lake!
Gosh, Evie, I sure hope you have a better time with The Angel of Indian Lake!!! Fingers crossed for you!
Fun tag. You're holding it together pretty well for a "freak out" tag🤣
I'm screaming on the inside, lol
I can’t wait for Fury of the Gods!! I’m doing a reread too same time as the Gwynne brothers in the fall 😄
I might have to jump in and do that with y'all!
@@TheNerdyNarrative yes you should! Guess what I bought today? The Redemption of Morgan Bright!! Going to start soon 😄
I absolutely cannot WAIT to hear what your reaction is when you finish!!
@@TheNerdyNarrative !!SPOILERS!!
I lost count with how many times i thought “ what is happening!” It is rare that a book scares me or gives me the creeps like this book did! At one point I pinched myself just to make sure I could feel it and I was real and this was a work of fiction. But wow what an ending! The twists and turns gave me nausea seriously I had to put it down and center myself. When I found out about baby Hadleigh I was like “ WHAT!” And literally I yelled it out loud! And then the swing set incident another WHAT! The pregnancy ceremony WTH! I thought I had it figured out a couple times but no way! I didn’t trust anyone, Andrew or Clayden, I thought one of them was in on everything! A five star read that I am still processing because of the treatment to woman in those places! Shocking 😳 I am so glad I read this and I will definitely read again too see if I “see” things differently!
Whew, you are earlyyyy! Haha, still loved hearing your answers though! Can't wait to read The Redemption of Morgan Bright myself soon. And I am also sooo pumped for The Fury of the Gods! Hope you find many more new faves in the rest of the year 🤩
I have some reviews going up on publication days, so it was either post it now or skip it until next year, lol
“It was so dark! It was delightful!” 🤣 love it!
Really excited to try Howard Andrew Jones' books. Where should i start with Stephen Graham Jones?
For me:
1. Fool's Errand / Robin Hobb
2. Fool's Fate / Robin Hobb
3. Play of Shadows / Sebastien De Castell
4. The third book in Daniel Abraham's Kithamar trilogy.
5. Haven't had one really, worse i can say was Michael Crichton's Grave Descend was meh. Expectations weren't high for that one 😅
6. Shutter Island / Dennis Lehane
7. Dennis Lehane
8. Don't have one.
9. Paragon from Robin Hobb's Liveship Traders trilogy.
10. Fool's Fate / Robin Hobb
11. The start of Fool's Errand
12. Howling Dark / Christopher Ruocchio and A Brightness Long Ago / Guy Gavriel Kay
13. The ones i want to read 😂
PARAGON!!!! YES! I recently saw a review about Play of Shadows and moved it up on my list of ones I really want to try and get to sooner, rather than later.
Oh gosh. Stephen Graham Jones. I really want to say My Heart is A Chainsaw - but it's the start of a trilogy and the last book is mostly a slog but a freaking brilliant ending. I started with The Only Good Indians, but I think that's one better to read after you've read a few and click with his work. Do you like werewolf stories? Mongrels might be a fun first book. If you were prefer something shorter to taste test SGJ - Night of the Mannequins was a great novella or Mapping the Interior.
@@TheNerdyNarrative I do like werewolves 🙂
Fun tag
Sometimes I wish I could go back to 2022 :D
Not me!!
Can you share a link for the lights on your bookshelves?? I love them

Those are the lights - BUT - I would recommend checking out Chris Mahr's TH-cam Channel for more in depth research. I have several sets of these that I connected and wired into a power supply so that I could do different colors and designs - they're completely customizable and fairly easy to program.
