I just finished the book lastnight and this was so fun to watch! I loved having the visuals of the characters on the map and your commentary is great! Excited to watch your videos along with TOD and KOA when you make them!

[@Isabethxo]

Love these!! New mom here so I am doing most of the tandem read using audiobooks and I always feel like I'm missing some parts. After watching these it helps so much. ❤❤

[@deeks4345]

Started this and am so sad we don’t have chaol im actually debating doing the tandem read even though that seems so daunting.

[@booksbynichelle]

I personally loved doing the tandem read, but I also think the books are really solid as standalones! imo you can’t really go wrong!

Spoiler Alert… I’m still mad at SJM for not giving Elide any magic.

[@booksbynichelle]

That's so interesting! I actually feel the total opposite. I'm sure I'll talk more about it in KOA, but I love it! To me it makes her character so much more compelling and powerful

[@trishaprehoda2421]

@@booksbynichelle I guess I was expecting more with what felt like foreshadowing. Plus, I like the idea of Elide and Lorcan living very long lives together.

[@booksbynichelle]

@@trishaprehoda2421 That part is so true! I can't even think about how some of the characters are immortal and some aren't 😭 It's truly devastating! 💔
