I may very well just continue on audio then!

I've been co-reading books (audio+physical at the same time) like CRAZY recently, it feels like the way only I can finish super chunky books these days. also I super relate to the idea of reading big books in January when you feel like you have time, my largest reading month page count wise is always in January lol

I've really been enjoying switching between formats depending on what suits me most at the time!

Great wrap-up for January! I'm so glad the audiobook for "The Way of Kings" ended up working out for you after all. :)

I'm glad it did too! Audio makes it way easier to get through those big books.

Seriously impressive that you managed those two chunkers and plenty of other books. Starting so strong!

Looking forward to Sangu Mandanna’s next book so much that I didn’t even need to read the synopsis. Just the title (A Witch’s Guide to Magical Innkeeping) and the cute cover was enough for me. Top three books I read in January: Emily Wilde’s Encyclopaedia of Faeries, Nevermoor, and The Hundred Years’ War on Palestine.

Yes! As soon as I saw Magical Inkeeping, I was sold.

I really loved the project of How high we go in the dark. Not everything landed for me but the whole thing was fascinating. Irregular witches was a surprise cause I thought it would be too cutesy, but the found family worked so well. Happy reading.

Very promising start to the year, Sam! ❤ "How High We Go In the Dark" sounds great, might have to pick it up myself

Yay! Glad you are continuing Stormlight, I've been checking every few months for several years now to see if you'd gotten around to Words of Radiance. Good call on the WoK reread before jumping back in 💛

I read Way of Kings in January too. I had read all of Mistborn era1 and 2 last year and finally decided to jump into Stormlight. I really loved WoK. Now my goal is to catch up with the rest of the cosmere before Stormlight 5 releases in December…. Might be a bit ambitious

I attempted The Expanse a couple years ago, but at the time I wasn't motivated to continue. I would like to give it another shot, because I still trying to get into SYFY. Even though I was enjoying it, it took me a long time to read The Way of Kings, but I finished it last year.

the 4th expanse book is my favorite! I felt the same way about the 3rd....so you've got that to look forward to!

I never got around to finishing the last 2 books in The Expanse, and now I'm thinking I should do a full reread just for the sake of Avasarala.

Okay, I'm intrigued by How High We Go in the Dark, I'm surprised it hasn't made it onto my TBR before now. If you like lightly speculative near-future fiction - you might check out Adrift by Brideau (my fave read of 2023) - it had some St. John Mandel vibes to me but more climate fiction than pandemic. I gave Adrift all the stars and would love to see more folks read it!
