i read all systems red this year too and i really enjoyed it! It’s interesting that you read murderbot as depressed though, because i actually read it as autistic! As someone with autism myself, i related so hard to murderbots extreme social discomfort and love of privacy, and that really just made me love the book even more

The 2nd on Empire of the Wolf is on my January TBR and I'm still reading through Mistborn then it will be time for Stormlight.

Assistant to the Villain - I'd idly picked this book up, but during my read my car broke down and lots of anxiety and stress and this book was funny and really got me through. Scum Villain's Self Saving System 1-4 - Just so much fun and I adored it. (Did I want to slap Shen Yuan upside the head often? Oh yes...but that was part of the charm. Heaven Official's Blessing 1-8 - Oooh loved this so much! Flew through and had so much fun reading these. The Hollow Dead (Gravekeeper 4) - just a great installment in the series. From Below - Haunted undersea ship, need I say more? Fire & Blood - Had to read this after watching season 1 of House of the Dragon. My friend got me this for my birthday and it was very good. Honestly on points better than the show on others not as good. Just Stab Me Now - a fun good time Luck in the Shadows - became obsessed with this book. ^_^

Thanks to you this summer was the Emily Henry summer, my first real foray into Romance and it was actually so fun! However, I feel in my bones that this coming year will be there year of epic fantasy series. And as my main influencing resource of book content I must ask your input: start with Stornlight Archives, Mistborn, or Realm of the Elderlings? I'm reading Tress & the Emerald Sea atm as my first Sanderson after years of procrastination and I feel pulled in so many directions lol. Let alone all of the standalone's on my shelf. Apologies to make you choose between your children but temporary sacrifices must be made, haha!

ok I NEED to finally start the realm of the elderlings next year! and based on everything you said in this video and on watching your content for over 10 years (wow, thank you!) I would really really really recommend giving One Piece a shot if you haven't - it's whimsical and at times batshit ridiculous but full of heart with incredible characters and a fantasy plot that rivals the greats in my humble opinion❤

I have sort of a silly quesion re. Robin Hobb. Can I skip the Liveship books? I loved the Farseer trilogy so much. But. I just really hate boats?? Lol I'm soooo not interested in reading a trilogy focused on naval stuff. The chapters in Farseer where Fitz is on the boat? Yeah, I skipped those. So bored. But I worry that I wouldn't get as much out of the later books if I skipped Liveship. Any advice??
