    I totally geeked out when you mentioned Charlie Bowater! I’ve been a huge fan of her art for about 4 years and it’s so cool to see more people recognizing her work!

    I swear the Red Rising series does not get enough hype or attention and I’m so glad that you enjoyed it. Definitely going to check out some of these other books though, great vid :)

  • @autumnbehon942
    @autumnbehon942 7 ปีที่แล้ว

    No joke, I just started reading Red Rising right before this video. I've never read the synopsis or watched a review. I saw it at my local library and thought "let's give this series a try". Now I am so pumped to read it!

  • @AmandaWojahn

    Your best books are on tbr list in my journal. I'm right now reading falling kingdoms, six of crows, and star-touched queen. So thank you so much.

    We Are Okay is one of my favorite books from last year and of all time, it broke me and ripped my heart out and put it back in damaged and I was thankful for it.

  • @WildeBookGarden
    @WildeBookGarden 7 ปีที่แล้ว +1

    OMG I feel like Wonder Woman was LIFE-CHANGING for so many people (especially girls!) and THAT PART IN THE WASTELAND. I WAS CRYING IN THE MOVIE THEATRE. And I still haven't read Windwitch because I just KNOW I'm gonna need more Aeduan x Iseult immediately and the third book keeps getting pushed back!

    • @ThoughtsOnTomes
      @ThoughtsOnTomes  7 ปีที่แล้ว

      yesss a highlight of 2017 for me was definitely Wonder Woman

  • @oscarzafferri2835

    I bought The Fifth Season yesterday because it just seemed a nice book but now that I have heard you talking about it I am so excited to read it! I also bought The Traitor's Blade because you talked about it and i just finished and OH MAN (No man breaks the Rock y'all)

  • @jerometerrell4306
    @jerometerrell4306 7 ปีที่แล้ว +1

    I’m 333 pages into “The Queen Of The Tearling” And I understand what u mean about kelsea being polarizing. She’s cutthroat, wise beyond her age, she rules with an iron first, but she’s also sensitive and caring. She’s very complex but I love her too and this book! I had some reservations about it in the beginning but I’m glad I kept reading. I think I will marathon the entire series!!!!

  • @ybell10

    Oh man, Aeduan and Iseult. Their angst was fantastic in Windwitch. I have to agree though, there were not enough angsty couples this year. I dint have a good shipping year either. And that’s a problem. Hopefully this year will be better.

    • @ThoughtsOnTomes
      @ThoughtsOnTomes  7 ปีที่แล้ว

      right?! I'm very disappointed in my shipping year.

    @thebooksquirm1326 7 ปีที่แล้ว

    So fun- I loved your awards!! I added Red Rising to my list so thank you for that.
    I love Patrick Rothfus! I read the name of the wind and the wise mans fear a few years ago. Every sentence is like poetry. Welcome to world of waiting for the third book..... it's no fun! Haha and I'm huge fan of Brandon Sanderson-- I loved Elantris. Have you read any of his other books?? The Reckoners series-- oh so good! I listened to it on audio. It has a great narrator! And the Mistborn series!! 😍 😍

    How is it that virtually every single book that you mention is one that I've dying to read but haven't gotten to yet. I just read the first volume of Descender and I'm in love. I can't wait to read the second volume. THUG was on my favorites list for 2017 as well. I also read Elantris last year, and it wasn't my least favorite Sanderson work! So I'm with you on that.

  • @everestneverlynn84
    @everestneverlynn84 6 ปีที่แล้ว

    You mentioned you really liked very deep and thoughtful books or books that seemed to be really thought out and that you wanted to get back into science fiction so I have a recommendation you could look into. It's called Partials by Dan Wells, and its a mix of post-apocalypse/science fiction and I feel like the characters are really down to earth and intelligent and mature and you've got morally grey characters and romances and yeah. It's wonderful. I think the book series is only like three books long (Idk it's been a while since I've read them) but I just thought, "Oh she seems like a very thoughtful person who would enjoy this!" So I thought I would mention it.

    • @everestneverlynn84
      @everestneverlynn84 6 ปีที่แล้ว

      Oh. I also forgot but another read you really need to look into is Furthermore and Whichwood. The first book is really good, but in my opinion, the second book is just a delightful cup of folktale, Persian-esque myth with incredible imagery that will definitely pull at some of the heartstrings. Like, I wish I could compare it to something but I really don't have enough to compare it to. All I know that it is certainly one of a kind.

  • @mariannysrondon6008
    @mariannysrondon6008 7 ปีที่แล้ว

    I am you when you talk about Red Rising, God. I remember when I read the first and second books in a marathon (in Spanish) and when I was about to read the third book I discovered it wasn't released yet and I had the most stressful post reading months of my whole life xD My favorite trilogy together with Mistborn trilogy. I really hope they do an adaptation.

    • @ThoughtsOnTomes
      @ThoughtsOnTomes  7 ปีที่แล้ว

      it would make a wonderful adaptation!

  • @HollyByGollyBooks
    @HollyByGollyBooks 7 ปีที่แล้ว

    Oooooooooooooo Eliza and her Monsters is being delivered to my house today and I'm even more pumped to read it now! :) and I have had Red Rising on my shelf for years now and litetally no idea why I haven't read it yet. I will have to pick it up asap!!

  • @TellHerAStory
    @TellHerAStory 7 ปีที่แล้ว +3

    The Red Rising Trilogy landed in so many of my categories for my 2017 Reading Survey. (I didn't do fave/least faves or awards)
    Also Eliza and her Monsters was a great one for me as well.
    The Diviners and Lair of Dreams ended up in some categories for me as well. I know you're on the fence about reading it for various reasons, but the series is a fantastic read. :)

    • @ThoughtsOnTomes
      @ThoughtsOnTomes  7 ปีที่แล้ว +2

      I know.. I'd like to give it a try eventually but idk man

  • @taylorstege9904
    @taylorstege9904 7 ปีที่แล้ว

    I really have to re read Red Rising. I read it in the beginning of 2017, and I guess I've had so much go on since then that I literally forgot everything haha. Also, currently reading The Name of the Wind, and just added The Fifth Season to my TBR 😁

  • @jodisheridan5223
    @jodisheridan5223 7 ปีที่แล้ว +1

    I wanted to do a re-read of the whole Red Rising trilogy before Iron Gold came out this month, but I can’t, for the reasons you stated. I felt so exhausted after reading each book, but in a good way. I was so anxious and nervous the entire time, and I can’t go through that again right now. 😂 No matter how much I love my precious Howlers.

    • @ThoughtsOnTomes
      @ThoughtsOnTomes  7 ปีที่แล้ว +2

      exactly! You can't put yourself through that

  • @Sophiek2221
    @Sophiek2221 7 ปีที่แล้ว

    I also did this tag I think a week ago. Wasn't it called the Bookish Academy Awards? I really loved doing it too, and I enjoyed it more because of the categories as well. I've seen many people talking about The Tiger's Daughter. Picking the best plot twist was so difficult for me. I think I've read more books that shocked me with their plot than with their actual characters or ships. I can't wait for your couples video, obviously.

  • @vavila16

    Kelsea 😍 & Kvothe gahh! And add Vin from Mistborn her inner monologue and political/magical development in the series!

  • @thesonicmaestro
    @thesonicmaestro 7 ปีที่แล้ว

    My fave female is Shallan Davar from The Stormlighy Archive. (Words of Radiance). Ka-Poel from Powder Mage Trilogy. I also like Sabetha (from Republic of Thieves - love-hate her sfm). Lyra from His Dark Materials (which I finally read, finally). My fave male is also Kvothe (Wise Man’s Fear) and Locke too hahaha. I’d add Patroclus too from Song of Achilles and Kaladin (The Way of Kings). Ugh I just love everyone.

  • @varmiiii
    @varmiiii 7 ปีที่แล้ว

    Honestly you make me want to read the windwitch series even though I never read YA books! and if I did this Oathbringer by brandon sanderson will probably be in every single category (oops) bc it's just amazing

  • @laurs3719
    @laurs3719 7 ปีที่แล้ว +3

    Seriously most of my favorites end up on your list. Your my top source for new series cause if you love it I know I will too. I'm all about the Haydes and Persephone romances. Bad ass, smart and strong females. One of my tops for the year is the Bone Season by Samantha Shannon. The series isn't talked about much, but Warden and Paige are just so good!

    • @ThoughtsOnTomes
      @ThoughtsOnTomes  7 ปีที่แล้ว +2

      the series used to be talked about a ton but then it dropped off over the years

      @aflowerthatcannotbebloomed 7 ปีที่แล้ว

      Laur S wait whuttt it does? I thought her new book was coming out next year is the priory of the Orange tree & that the 4th bone season book will be released after that book. She's still working on the 4th book as i know. Tbh wouldn't mind two releases by her in 2019 or even a book this year.

    • @laurs3719

    Speaking of action that doesn't let you breathe: you NEED to read 'Gone' by Michael Grant. Best YA series I've ever read.

  • @charityyoder9028
    @charityyoder9028 7 ปีที่แล้ว

    Best angst... ohhhh... Amelia and LIncoln from the Lincoln Rhyme series by Jeffery Deaver. (It's mystery so probably not your thing, but it happened to be mine). And The Last Magician by Lisa Maxwell. Man did those two have some good angst. I cannot wait to see where they go.

  • @TomeRiddle

    I know I am late to this party but here I am...
    Did you continue Temeraire? I read quite a few of them but fell off eventually as I couldn't find the latest book anywhere in the UK.
    Also I have that same copy of Jules Verne. Gold pages. Haven't even opened it as it is just so delicate looking.
    Ha. I still love the WW film. But the ending was a little off. New film soon!

    I just have to say, I haven't read one of those books beyond the samples. And yet, I love hearing you talk about them. In fact, I think this is one of my favorite videos of yours (automatic Like). I'm _determined_ to make your awards list next year. I know, I know... you've already said that you don't like thrillers, but I'm determined to be your first. Goals ;^)

  • @queenoffabulous2156
    @queenoffabulous2156 7 ปีที่แล้ว +1

    I do love clorkwork princess but I must agree it does spend a bit too much time wrapping up every single little thing, which was nice to see but at the same time it kinda pulled away from the real climax and made the last few chapters feel dragged, still love the book and series though

    • @ThoughtsOnTomes

    Hi Sam I hope you go back to your previous setup, the camera seems too far I feel like I’m looking at you through a magnifying glass. And also we get to see your beautiful face (especially your gorgeous eye makeup) more in the previous angle 😊

    • @ThoughtsOnTomes
      @ThoughtsOnTomes  7 ปีที่แล้ว

      thanks for the feedback but the setup is almost exactly the same, angle wise, the camera is just different. Plus the lighting is better in this new setup. The old lighting actually washed me out a bit and was more blue toned. My eye makeup actually shows more true to color in this new setup, as I would find things used to look different on camera vs in person, which was frustrating. I can mess around with the angle some though and see if that helps.

    • @louellagallardo-mortensen8030
      @louellagallardo-mortensen8030 7 ปีที่แล้ว

      Ok got it 😊👍 thought the camera was closer then but perhaps maybe you were just standing closer to the camera in your other videos. Oh and definitely notice the increased clarity and crisper images in your recent videos, your new camera 🎥 is freakin awesome congratulations 🎉 ! Thank you for doing all that you do for all of us subscribers. You are a wonderful person and ❤️❤️❤️ your channel (and eye makeup) 😁😉💕

    This is so weird but you remind me so much of like an awesome girl in a movie like Breakfest Club. I mean like I can just see you being that unique chick in a bad ass oldies friends movie.

    Can anyone recommend some books to read about antiheroes or villains. I haven't really read any and I don't know where to start.

      Tyler L. Nevernight by jay Christoff is a great book about a lady assassin

      Six of Crows duology by Leigh Bardugo and The Lies of Locke Lamora by Scott Lynch are two good starting points

    i could live forever and never understand how people like Kvothe. I HATE him. I don't know how people can like the book when you spend the whole time in that termite's mind
