GGK makes me nervous toooo. When I was first getting out of my massive massive slump I tried Tigana and it just read way too dense for my brain fog at the time and had to put it aside. I might be more able to take it on now but I'm scared. Also I dunno where I put it xD Honestly really starting to think our reading tastes DO mostly align... you know... aside from my love of CHONKS and questing fantasy. 😂

Oh I love that you specifically picked books that wouldn't already be obviously on your TBR anyway. Sounds like you have a really exciting year coming up, can't wait to hear your thoughts on all of these!! The Ruin of Kings is exceptional, I think you'd love it. And The Book of Witching is also incredible, but it's more historical fiction with mystery and magical realism than horror or anything, so adjust your expectations hahahah. And dang I also really need to get to The Councillor! Happy reading friend 🥰
