Wow women authors no thanks

Ahh I love seeing priory mentioned! It’s been nearly a year since I finished it and still think about it all the time. Such a beautiful tale. The way all the POV’s slowly connect to eachother is something so brilliant I cannot even explain, each page is so so worth it.

Gotta go back to the source and mention Anne McCaffrey's Dragon Riders of Pern!

books mentioned: - the blood trials by n. e. davenport - to shape a dragon’s breath by moniquill blackgoose - the priory of the orange tree by samantha shannon - an ember in the ashes by sabaa tahir - the hurricane wars by thea guanzon

" If you dream of vengeance for whatever reason" hahahha!!! LOVE IT!

I like this Booktok format for YT now I don’t need TikTok anymore 😅

this is motivating me to unhaul my own books 😮

Wait... You're giving away the pretty edition and keeping the standard one? Why?😂😂😂

You and Emma Skies have the same feeling about romantasy! Especially more enjoying romantic fantasy than fantasy romance- also hard agree 💖

I loved to first book of Huricane wars

Congrats to you for fulfilling your goals!!! It’s really remarkable that you are able to give those books away. I would probably just think I’d read them in a few years 😅 Also I was thinking about joining your discord. It is free to join?

YES I NEED THEM COMPLETED MY ANXIETY CANNOT WAIT

My last book of 2024 was Project Hail Marry. It was SO good!!!!

my jaw dropped when you said you were getting rid of those gorgeous illumicrate editions of she who became the sun and the sequel but keeping the regular editions?????

How more "gender equality" in your lists?

More long form content! Woo!

So proud of you! I Love book unhaul videos ❤️

I love these goals for you and that you are taking hold of joy! 😊

Name of the Wind hurts, because I agree with you. Until Rothfuss actually puts out Doors, I can't care about the series anymore. (You know, if he does.)

For those who like YA low fantasy, with royals, politics, sword-fighting and treachery, I highly HIGHLY recommend the Ascendance series by Jennifer A. Nielsen. The first book is the False Prince and it is amazing. Probably nobody cares, but I hope this interests someone. Have a great day and week!😊

I’m fully obsessed with you 😭

I'm cackling that Lin Manuel Miranda blurbed name of the wind, SIR WHAT ARE YOU DOING HERE?? Also your scholomance thoughts hurt me BUT I'll say temeraire is entirely different, so depending on what it was you didn't like about that series you might still like the Dragon series!

i was so disappointed when i dnfed the final strife but it really wasn’t for me:( sucks when a sapphic book doesn’t work for me and i think im gonna pass on faebound too

Hurt by some of these unhauls 😢 (Temeraire, I’m Afraid You’ve Got Dragons, Earthsea, and The Expanse) but I sooooo get it. I’m planning on doing an unhaul soon myself….

clap clap.. great job.

Omg I pet my books too 😂

A round of applause to you for getting them goals going!! I personally cannot wait for the plated prisoner to be all on audible. I just finished the final book all read in my kindle and I want it in my ear soooo bad.

The Broken Earth trilogy is soooo good!

Not someone giving me a list of mostly WOMEN authors! 👏🏻

Thanks!!

the last book i finished in 2024 was reign and ruin by j. d. evans and i really enjoyed it! great worldbuilding and political intrigue while also having a well-written romance. i liked it so much that i ended up binging the next 3 books in the series as my first reads of 2025!

A book by Lang Leav

I can see that you are frustrated but I love how you express your frustration and it's really endearing and funny! Don't be so hard on yourself! Love this video so much! ❤

The Poppy War is really good but it’s DARK as hell so beware… it is not a happy book…

"One: No. But also..." 😂 We love the bound and the broken!

Have you read Babel? It is like historical fiction combined with fantasy!

I wish I could get more fantasy animal/anthro recommendations!

While you were explaining your reasoning for goals in the beginning around the 2 minute mark- I was thinking to myself "she must be a virgo"...and then you said it 🤣

So jealous of the Bury our Bones arc that it physically hurts 😭 Absolutely loving the longer form content from you!!

I watched someone with less picky taste in fantasy romance eviscerate Quicksilver so maybe a library read

I have also made the decision to read something outside my comfort zone. So i decided to read one classic or general fiction once a month. This month i picked Jane Eyre because I never read it and a lot of booktubers recommended it ☺️

What about furry magepunk fantasy?

good video!!!

Cant wait to watch more youtube videos from you this 2025 ❤

If you want to try a historical fiction with a lot of political intrigue, I’d definitely recommend Robert Harris. He’s my go-to author when I need a break from fantasy/sc-fi because he writes about historical events that everyone knows but adds some amazing twists that make you question everything you read.

Try historical fiction which will feel familiar with some of the fantasy you read. I love Kate Quinn. Since you love mystery I'd start with the newer Briar Club but her claim to fame was the Alice Network. I haven't read anything of hers that I didn't love. Strong female characters, clever plots and brilliant character building. I'm pretty selective when I leave our sacred ground of Fantasy/SciFi but Kate Quinn never fails to hit me with a perfect palate cleanser.

Hi guys, any political fantasy recomendation?

I always click on "book unhaul" videos cuz I'm nosy and I want to know what books people are getting rid of 😭 + it motivates me to unhaul some of my books as well (and not to mention the satisfaction I feel while I watch/do these unhauls lol)

Look at you with the new camera! I am also going to cut down on book buying. I want to read at least two books I have either on my shelf or kindle before I buy a new book. I’ve also made a list of 25 “no ifs ands or buts” books on my shelf that will be read this year. And similar to you most are series I’ve started but not finished. Lol

Same. I read Tomorrow and Tomorrow and Tomorrow last year. It was incredible but it was my one literary fiction.
