MARCH TBR | getting out of a reading slump with some mood reads (and all of my readalongs)

[@readbykyle3082]

Read what you want to! Just want to read ASOS 😝🤪 I hear tons of people talk about Mask of Mirrors haha. Apparently the first half is a lot of set up and names but the second half is awesome? Hope you like it. Yay Dresden!

[@jordanreads]

I’m hoping closer to the end of the month, after I get my mood reading out, I’ll be in the mood for SoS. I’ll just be a little behind everyone else. 😎

My recommendation is that you should give some space between each malazan books. It may seem like an interesting read but once you finish it you will be pushed to a reading slump. Also, IMO all malazan books starts slow like a slumpy book but picks up from the middle.

[@jordanreads]

We have 2 months to read each book, so I’ll be able to read a bunch in between!

[@jimsbooksreadingandstuff]

Good luck with your March reading, hope you are over your slump. I have put Storm of Swords back on my shelf and don't think I'll be picking it up again any time soon.

Not feeling ASOIAF?

My March TBR started off with the Adventures of Amina al-Sirafi, and at about 28% in, I'm trying to decide if I like it enough to finish or if I should DNF and get to something...better? The story is interesting enough but I don't really care about the characters so I'm having a hard time with that (same problem I had with the City of Brass for its first 50% but i liked the last 50% a lot). Other books on my March TBR include the Winnowing Flame trilogy and an indie pub (either A Touch of Light, Dragon Mage, or Illborn). Hope your March plans go well for you. 🙂

I’m really excited to try out the winnowing flame trilogy! I have all of them. Hoping to get to it soon. I just got my copy of Amina, and I am really excited to read it, but I’ve mostly heard mixed reviews so I’m nervous. 🥲

I had a rough February too!😬 You just reminded me I need to read The Two Towers and keep going with the Dresden Files.

[@jordanreads]

I hope your March is much better!

[@BooksToAshes]

I was in a bad slump in February too, the first one in sooo long. I only read four things but my favourite was probably Shadows of Self by Brandon Sanderson, his books are always a good time.

[@jordanreads]

I’ve heard a lot of people were in a slump at the same time. I wonder why 🤔

[@carnissa]

Currently reading Deadhous Gates too, I'm at 30%. Enjoying a lot better than Gardens of the Moon. Really fun, right? Proven guilty is alright. But IMO Dresden Files is kinda trash.

[@jordanreads]

I finished DHG yesterday and it was WILD. The last 25% was stunning. Hoping Dresden grows on me. So far I feel very eh about it.

[@readingwithrebeccanicole]

I'm behind on reading the A Song of Ice and Fire books 🙈 I'm only halfway through A Clash of Kings. I thought Mask of Mirrors was an audible exclusive! I just checked and my library doesn't have the audio, but I requested it. Hopefully you have a better reading month in March!

[@jordanreads]

I’ll probably be behind with you 😂😂 Yeah, I could never find the audio, but then after I got a new library card, they had it!

[@blacknbluecollarreader]

Looks like you got a good month ahead of you!! I thought Deadhouse Gates was amazaing and you are absolutely correct that Two Towers cover is gorgeous!!

[@jordanreads]

Thank you! Finished DHG yesterday and was blown away. That last 25% was mind blowing.

[@blacknbluecollarreader]

@@jordanreads Butterflies and Crows 😍🤯😍🤯😥

[@Khushi_Kishore]

Dunno what it was about the month but February was a reading slump month for me as well haha. I hope March goes much better!

[@jordanreads]

I’ve been hearing SO many people say this. I wonder why?!

[@Khushi_Kishore]

@@jordanreads same. Have absolutely no idea. It’s a mass slump kinda season 😂

[@RekindledReader]

I want to read Mask of Mirrors! Bought it and very curious how it goes for you :)

[@jordanreads]

I’ll let you know! 🥰

[@thatsci-firogue]

You're not a bad Fantasy fan for only recently reading LotR, you also wouldn't be a bad Fantasy fan if you never read it.

[@jordanreads]

Aww, thanks 🥰🥰🥰

[@Grimm44]

Darrow is 16 years old character in the book you must expect some immature thinking from him he is a very naive character in the book

[@jordanreads]

I can deal with naivety. The way he's written is just annoying lol. But I am liking him much more in Golden Son so far!
