I, too, am having a crisis that it's already halfway through the year...

[@julielafranzo5468]

A very secret society of irregular witches was my favorite this year and I am SO EXCITED for the next one!!

i much prefer the Autumn Equinox being in September because: 1. that's the actual equinox so makes my brain happy; 2. April and September have the same amount of days; 3. September is tricky for me so having something fun to look forward to will really help! i also feel like it could be helpful for people going back to school to have a reminder to read for fun in between

I am not going to help you adjust your expectations - The Will of the Many is my favorite so far this year.

[@rootingbranches]

My favourite would be Our Wives Under the Sea and most disappointing would be The Mystery Guest. 😢 Great video!

[@magicallyalice]

The will of the many is one of my favourites of the year, but please note that the pacing is not the best and some parts drag quite a lot. Amazing ideas and captivating story, but the execution could have been better

My most pleasant 'I live this book so much was The Fox Wife by Yangsze Choo. Biggest disappointment was The Night Tiger, also by Yangsze Choo, made more disappointing because The Fox Wife made me hopeful I'd found a new favorite author.

[@MarinaUz]

My best book of the year so far is probably Royal Assassin. Biggest disappointment was Starling House 😅❤

[@lupilotty9317]

My favourite so far is The Tenant of Wildfell Hall by Anne Brontë which I read all the way back in January. My most disappointing was The Seeker by S.G MacLean, the first in a historical fiction series I was really hoping would spark a new obsession for a series I could get my teeth into but it was so boring.

[@Lillyjoy]

My fav book so far has been Bookshops & Bonedust, and my most disappointing was A Fate Inked in Blood, I just did not like it at all and I’m having a hard time finding any fantasy romance I like besides Fourth Wing 😂

[@irl.bookworms]

Some desperate glory & light from uncommon stars are my two faves for this year so far ❤

[@Elsie1588]

I always look forward to magical readathon, so I'm sad to have to wait longer. Also August is my month with time off from work. Which makes it great for relaxing and reading a lot.

[@lupilotty9317]

Ahh, The Undertaking of Hart and Mercy really surprised me too. I adored it. Can't wait for the next book from the author.

[@librocurious]

Loved, loved, loved Will of the Many. I will say, if you can, to wait closer until book two comes out, because if you are like me and almost everyone else I know who has read it, you will immediately want to read the next book.

[@tr_4600]

September! Thanks for sharing that i honestly am looking forward to that.

[@somuch_kat]

I really loved both The Measure and The Galaxy and the Ground Within! Thanks for the video, I'm inspired to go take a look at my reading list for the year so far and figure out my selections for all the different categories!

[@kelsenator]

I have so many I loved this year so far! At the top had to be The Tainted Cup by Robert Jackson Bennett, The lies of Locke Lamora, and Never Die by Rob J Hayes. Most disappointing so far is Song of the Huntress by Lucy Holland.

[@_daniela_s]

My favourite was Royal Assassin by Robin Hobb 🎉 and the last in the wayfarer series as well!

[@readwithjulez]

Favorite read so far is Light Bringer!! ✨ Most disappointing is The Soulmate Equation. 😬

[@leftoclock]

I included some of these in my tbr! 🥰
