My MAY TBR (What I'll Be Reading This Month)

[@paulcain548]

So glad you liked Golden Son and now it’s on to Morning Star. And Lonesome Dove??!!! That is one of my all time favourites and I don’t do westerns either. I can pretty much guarantee you will adore that journey. Saddle up and enjoy the ride. It’s fantastic 🤠🐮🐴👍🏻

[@shelby5725]

Love how you formatted this!! Getting us excited about what books there are and then going through the selection process. Makes it feel like there’s big stakes 🌻

[@PaperbackJourneys]

Thanks Shelby! This is my favourite video that I get to make every month because I feel that excitement of finding out along with the viewer. That's a lovely comment. I appreciate it.

[@ReadingIDEAS.-uz9xk]

Plenty in your library to keep you busy there. Best wishes with what you choose to read. I'm currently up to page 770 of the Count of Monte Cristo. Still got a long way to go. Happy reading.

[@Millie.C]

I'm glad Dark Matter ended in the TBR list. First because I remember it blew my mind some years ago when I read it, and second I think it's just perfect timing since the TV show is coming up this year.

[@PaperbackJourneys]

Oh Wow Millie! I just checked and it says it's coming out in the next week. That's great timing!!

[@acueto7]

You’re going to love Lonesome Dove. Such an amazing book!

[@PaperbackJourneys]

I can't wait!

I read Assassin's Apprentice with no intention of reading the second unless I liked the 1st... and of course, reading one a month... yeah... I kind of found myself reading all 3 in the first trilogy back to back... I'm a fan now and will be for sure reading everything Elderling. 📖🥰📚📚📚 ...Red Rising! Yey! Omnis Vir Lupus!🐺

[@dannyletcher5873]

Joe Abercrombie is one of my favorite authors,a nd I love Best Served Cold! Lonesome Dove is fantastic as well! ^_^

[@PaperbackJourneys]

That's great to hear Danny. It seems like everyone I speak to loves Lonesome Dove. I think I'll read it and then maybe watch the movie.

[@idawg7332]

Just finished reading the expanse. Now im starting IT and then the dark tower plus some of the expanded king universe

[@PaperbackJourneys]

I really liked IT. I need to start reading The Expanse this year. Everyone says how fantastic it is. There's just so many great books. Happy reading!

[@idawg7332]

@@PaperbackJourneys expanse was really good. I had seen the show and was annoyed it didn't get the proper ending since they didn't adapt the last 3 books which is why i decided to read them

[@jennifersanders6558]

I read Lonesome Dove last summer and loved it. Believe me, I am NOT a Western person either. Fell in love with the characters. Dark Matter is fun too. I wouldn't consider it hard sci-fi, but an entertaining read.

[@PaperbackJourneys]

Yeah it seems like Lonesome Dove is one of those books which is universally loved. All of the comments here seem to agree it's awesome. I look forward to diving into it.

[@TheSirthelast]

I read Lonesome Dove early this year and it changed me. It on first glance is the best book I've ever read because of everything it deals with and the characters are just so damn alive. Brilliant book that never ever let me down

[@PaperbackJourneys]

Wow that's some endorsement! I'm even more excited now.

[@calebroundy3309]

commenting again in case you didn’t see my comment earlier. your channel is my new favorite, so so good compared to a lot of uncreative content on KZbin. i am such a big fan of your personality and book reviews. love it dude!

[@PaperbackJourneys]

Thanks so much Caleb. I really appreciate it. I'm glad you like the videos. I'm hoping to get back to a bit more consistency now that I'm back from my little business trip. Thanks again mate.

[@elijahwise4588]

I heard best served cold is being adapted into a movie.

[@PaperbackJourneys]

Yes I did hear that. I'm really excited to see that when it's released. I think I might just start reading it this month once I'm done with the first 4. I can't wait any longer 😂

[@valliyarnl]

im soooo nervous what u will think of Dark Matter but I hope you like it (and if you don't I do hope you'll read Recursion anyway!!! bc they're quite different :D )

[@PaperbackJourneys]

I'll definitely read Recursion. I remember you saying that it's better than Dark Matter and I feel like we have similar tastes when it comes to books.

[@BigBoyAshh]

Ive heard great things about the fisherman, can’t wait to see what you think!

[@PaperbackJourneys]

Yeah I'm hoping it comes up next time on the wheel but if I get done with these 4 books I might even end up squeezing it in to my reading this month.

[@BigBoyAshh]

@@PaperbackJourneys haha you’re a reading machine bro😂🔥

[@mmmoynihan]

“The dongle is the decider”. Words to live by. 😂 For May, I’ll be reading another couple of discworld books (started the TouTube channel at last) and finishing off Death’s End to finish Remembrance of Earth’s Past and Assassin’s Quest to finish the Farseer trilogy. I’m about half way through both. After that I’m pretty undecided. I’m leaning towards The Trees by Percival Everett or The Secret History by Donna Tartt at the moment.

[@PaperbackJourneys]

HAHA! The dongle is always the decider. That's so cool that you started a KZbin channel. Are you covering any specific niche or reading across genres? I'll subscribe now.

[@PaperbackJourneys]

Did you set up a channel under a different name? Or is it on this account?

[@mmmoynihan]

@@PaperbackJourneys different name @TheBookThing

[@mmmoynihan]

@@PaperbackJourneys initially I’m rereading discworld and doing a video for each book (inspired by someone else who documented their journey through a full series). Who knows after that.

[@ExponentialAnger]

“Im all about the characters” trying to stifle the rage that you haven’t read 11/22/63 yet. SMH.

[@PaperbackJourneys]

I will definitely put it on the wheel next month and maybe it'll come up. Also... I just looked at your profile picture. You're a West Ham fan?? Same brother!!! ⚒️

[@ExponentialAnger]

@@PaperbackJourneys absolutely sir! Lol already was a fan of your channel. But you just went up a level ⚒

[@tommy2002attwood]

Hey love the videos, just wondering if you have a public goodreads account that we can follow?

[@PaperbackJourneys]

I actually track all of my reading on Notion but I've been thinking for a while that I need a public Goodreads account and you've just reminded me. I'll get one set up this week I think. Thanks for the comment.
