Priority TBR for 2025

[@AFictionalEscapist]

You have a bunch I’m looking at reading as well! I didn’t realise there was an Earthsea buddy read! Thank you for the heads up 😊 If you would like a buddy for The War of Flowers hit me up! Happy reading 🎉

@@AFictionalEscapist yeah the brothers Gwynne are doing the first book I believe and then a load of us will continue on with it over there! I’d love to buddy read War of the Flowers! I’m sure it will actually make me read it haha!

[@AFictionalEscapist]

@@bookschocaholic I feel the same way 😅 I own 9 Tad Williams books and haven’t read any yet whoopsie!

Very excited (and nervous) for the Malazan readalong! I also loved Sistersong so I'm hoping to pick up Song of the Huntress in 2025 too! I'm sure you'll be happy to hear the The Realm of the Ederlings is one of my priorities for 2025, I'm not sure how far I'll get in the year, but I at least want to make a dent

@@mojopie yeah if I hadn’t already read this one I think I’d be more nervous haha! I’m hoping it will all come back to me as I go. I’m soooooo excited for Song of the Huntress! It comes out in paperback around my birthday as well so it’s the universe’s gift to me lol! YEEEEEEEEESSSSSSSS finally I can get your thoughts on RotE!!! I did a trilogy/series a year and that worked well for me. Don’t know what your preferred pace for series is usually though

@bookschocaholic I'm nervous but I've heard such good things about it so I'm hopeful. Plus a lot of people have said it's not as confusing as some people make out, so I'm hoping they're right. That's definitely a birthday gift from the universe! I will probably read it in a similar way, I don't want to leave too long between books/series (like I already have since first reading Assassin's Apprentice 😬) but I also don't want to get burn out because that easily happens with long/interconnected series! I'll definitely finish the first trilogy and hopefully Liveships but I'm not going to pressure myself too much because I want take it all in properly

@@mojopieI dont think I would have found it confusing if it wasn’t via audio. I’m not used to epic fantasy in audio form. I tend to drift. So I’m looking forward to a physical read through this time. Maybe I’ll try and rope you into a Song of the Huntress buddy read?? 👀 Yeah I felt I got really immersed into the world when I spread it out so even though I’m a huge fan. I would 💯 recommend gaps between series. Glad you’re not copying Will and reading the non-Fitz ones too haha

[@mojopie]

@bookschocaholic yes to the buddy read! And I'm a completionist so I definitely wouldn't skip the non-Fitz books 😂

[@bookschocaholic]

@@mojopiegood! We’ll gang up on Will when you’re done 😂
