That's a great mix of books and fun buddy reads. A Short Walk Through a Wide World looks very interesting, and Dreadful sounds like a great premise but the humour could go either way. I really liked The Book of Doors - exceptional plotting to link all the time travel aspects together and loads of great ideas. When the other books are brought in, I thought there was enough material for a 3 book series, and doing so might have given more time to add depth to the characters, but it was a very enjoyable read nonetheless. The Last Murder at the End of the World was another good one but not quite Evelyn Hardcastle level. There's a fair bit of laying out the 'rules' at the start, but the mystery is very good, the idea is original and I liked the different characters. I hope you enjoy them all and have a great month. I'm lokking forward to Strange the Dreamer (fantasy), In the Blink of an Eye (mystery-thriller) and The Nightingale (historical).
@Danni.Dabbles
@Danni.Dabbles Күн бұрын
Sadly, I DNFed A Short Walk Through a Wide World. I will talk about it in an upcoming video, but long story short there were so many unanswered questions through the first 50% and the story time jumps so many times I just didn't care about what was happening. It is very hard to connect to the characters. I just started Dreadful and the jury is still out on the humor. I finished The Book of Doors and I LOVED it. I 100% agree that the plotting was exceptional and I really enjoyed the main characters journey with grief. I'm in the middle of The Last Murder at the End of the World now and it could go either way at this point. I'm definitely not as intrigued as I was with Evelyn Hardcastle. I've never read Strange the Dreamer but I would like to at some point. I would be interested in hearing your thoughts. I've heard great things about The Nightingale. I hope you have an amazing reading month!!

Well done to everybody involved and congrats to the winner (won't say who due to spoilers). The scores were really close, so plenty of good recs all round. Great to see a bit of standard deviation on booktube! I really enjoyed the discussion. I bet it's exciting to pick books for others, though quite difficult and stressful at the same time, but it looks like everybody had a lot of fun. Well done on putting it all together, Danni. Hopefully, I can catch up with a few more vlogs and watch the live show as it happens next time.

Thank you! It was definitely a tight race. I think standard deviation is so fun to look at. 🤣I know not everyone agrees, but I just wanted to talk about it. Recommendations are really hard. I didn't do the competitors any favors by placing them with others who they don't necessarily have the same reading tastes, but I think it made it really interesting. Thank you so much for watching!

I really like this idea, and get to know 3 new to me booktubers. I'm really interested to see what gets recommended. I can't call a winner as books recs can sometimes come down to mood, reading the right book at the right time, but I love the amount of research and stalking the contestants are doing to get an edge. Good luck to all! I'm sure everybody will get something great to read.

It really has been a fun experiment. You are absolutely correct! There are so many variables it can be hard to figure out what will happen. I think that might be my favorite part. I do think that this round definitely did their research. We will see if it works out for them.

I'm catching up on vids as I've had a lot on recently. Really interesting to hear your thoughts on The Wickwire Watch. I heard good things from early reviews (though I'm often a bit suspicious of them) and then some mixed opinions. You've sold me on it, so I've just got it on kindle for 99p. The next two books are also the same price, if they have them on Amazon US. I agree with everything you said about Warbreaker. I liked the romance between between the two characters, but agree his romance can be a bit simplistic and lack a touch of finesse. Lightsong's dad joke humour was also a bit much. As you said, the plot, magic and worldbuilding were great, and I enjoyed the path the characters took. It also gave it 4*. I like how you see the positives in the books recommended - you either get a book you like or learn something about what you don't like, which is also helpful. - Spoilers for Warbreaker and Stormlight Archive - I think there are 2 characters from Warbreaker in Stormlight. Vasher is Zahel, the swordmaster, and Vivenna is Azure, Highmarshal of the Wall Guard. Nightblood is Sword-Nimi, the sword that Szeth uses.

Nice to know about the sequels in the Wickwire Watch! I hope you enjoy it as much as I did. I always feel bizarre when I don't rave about a Sanderson, but I have to remind myself that every book has the ability to be a hit or a miss regardless of the author. While I wouldn't say it was a miss I just didn't enjoy it as some of his other works. Thank you for the spoilers! Stormlight is so large I often forget some of the details. I may need to reread prior to Stormlight 5. Thank you for watching! I hope life calms down for you.

Fantasticland sounds so good! I have added to my tbr. I agree with Romance.. my favourite ones are always something that has something that is experienced in real life, or are funny. No romance is ever as straight forward or fits the pattern that a certain group of romances does. It's not that I hate the fluffy ones, it's more that it takes me out of the story when it doesn't feel real to some degree and then I get annoyed. My recent 5 star predictions have mostly been spot on (Evocation, and The Way of Kings). One was a complete and epic fail for me though... Ocean's Echo ended up a 2 star for me. I loved the first book so much that I was sure the second book would be as good.

Although at least that opens up a spot in your series TBR. 🤣
