Lol "Louis E Erdrich" cracked me up. Louise Erdrich is a phenomenal Indigenous author who I highly recommend picking up!

[@SydBookWorrom]

@@katiek3258 ommmgggg!!!! That “E” being behind the cover art was DECIEVING💀😂

[@bookishbailey]

I'm so glad I'm not the only one who feels like they did The Spellshop dirty in the Romantasy category. 😭

[@jadeklassen2002]

Loved quick silver!!! I want to read an academy for liar! That cover is so cool!! So excited for all these upcoming vlogggssss!!

[@booksandali]

The Frozen River in historical fiction is one of my favs this year! Definitely recommend if you haven't read it yet.

[@kellymanfredini3835]

I just picked it up today. 🎉

[@BookReviewsWithBecky]

I loved Here One Moments! 😍

[@kellymanfredini3835]

I just got it and am excited to try it out.

[@leakrr]

I loved to read Welcome to the Hyunam-Dong Bookshop! It's so wholesome :)

[@BestKeptPlans]

The Bullet Swallower is absolutely fantastic! Never thought I'd read a historical western, but so glad I did. Completely agree with your thoughts on The Spellshop. Cozy fantasy > romantasy. Highly recommend The Book of Doors. Incredibly unique and well written!

[@slategrey2879]

I'd definitely be interested in you reading from the Fiction category. I agree, a lot great looking books on that list.

[@stephaniefisher1091]

🤩🤩 I definitely recommend The Real Americans and Martyr. They are both unique and excellent!

[@liselfaust8720]

The Poisons We Drink was really good!!! It's in the YA fantasy, but handles some tough topics in a good way!

[@_ashleylh]

I agree with you completely. Fantasy is not as exciting as usual to me. But I added loads to TBR from lit fic, horror and sci fi (I don't read a lot of sci fi, but when I do, I usually love it - maybe I will up my sci-fi game in 2025!)

[@clairreads6618]

As someone who basically exclusively reads fantasy based books (I’ll throw in some contemporary romance occasionally) I find it really interesting to see peoples thought on the other genres because those books are not on my radar AT ALL

[@noelle7pages]

packing my bags for Indy again bc I'm pissed I'm missing out on coffee/books/wine errands

[@SydBookWorrom]

I miss you so much come back

[@lindahuson8451]

I have blacked out many times in a bookstore!

[@msellenandrea]

I really enjoyed the book of doors, it is a fun time if you like time stuff :D 🤩

[@kellymanfredini3835]

Oh good! I just bought it. I love time books.

[@telleringet2865]

Good selection! Also you have a great laugh, very pleasant

[@WandaBurnside]

I just love your channel. I love your comments. Keep it up.

[@bethmetcalf3447]

I understand your ‘I don’t know what happened’ when buying your books. I hurt my back in 1997 and I now have pain 24/7. When I’m up during the night in pain I tend to get on a website (it’s also a store) here in Australia called BigW. You can actually put lay-by’s on at home through their website, do you see where this is going 🤦🏻‍♀️ I currently have three lay-by’s going with only 26 books all added up🙄 Yep, don’t give me that look because I know 😫😩😂😂 Will I stop? Nope 😂😂

[@Kaitydid_Krixtur]

I loved the honey witch and the invocations

[@Taralovescoloring]

I really hope that you end up reading "The Wedding People" - it's one of my favorite books of the year and I would love to hear your take on it. I've also heard Quicksilver is great but that cover is ridiculous.

[@NovelsWithNicole]

Beautyland is a sci fi lit fic (💜✨)

[@cassandralynnreads]

I had the same reaction to both the fantasy and romantasy categories! I'm with you 100% about The Spellshop, the romance is not at the forefront, so why in the heck would it be in the romantasy category. I was baffled, but that's literally how everyone was marketing it 😅

[@edwardleecaliforniausa]

Hi Syd hope you're doing well and happy Friday afternoon to you and I enjoy your channel and you are amazing supporter happy Weekend

[@kwoot07]

Read An Academy for Liars!!!! Just finished it last night. What a freaking ride.

[@Anna-dp8ee]

🤩🤩 I‘m excited no matter what video/genre you‘ll pick but I voted for Fantasy because I‘m mostly a fantasy reader

[@susan_brehm_art]

⭐️ I'd like to hear your take on some Lit Fic. 😊

[@mirrorballmusings]

🤩 This is one of time few times I miss being in goodreads - so I can vote on my faves lol. That special edition of A Fate Inked in Blood is 😍😍😍

[@emilysteeley1555]

If you need a Romantasy recommendation, I would highly suggest the Games Gods Play by Abagail Owens if you like the idea of merging a Hunger Games dystopian society with Greek mythology!

[@mjmullady]

The fox wife has been on my list for sure

[@MyBookHauledLife-Essie]

I am about to read The Fox Wife!

[@kellymanfredini3835]

I just got it on audio

[@VeraFran]

I'm 50% into The Return of Ellie Black right now and it's really good so far.

[@danimorin6283]

ok ive read both quicksilver and the veiled kingdom and Quicksilver was so much better. i had a lot of fun reading that book and im super interested on your take!

[@MeMyshelfAndI]

I only made it 12 chapters into The Games Gods Play on audio, and 7 chapters when I went back to sight-read the ebook. Cause good GOD is this a mess of a book if writing is at all important to you. My GR dnf review is basically just direct quotes 😂(and that's without even getting into the terrible world-building or anything else) here are some gems. all of these are direct quotes/punctuation/etc: ⚡ “Um…” I stare past him, and he follows my gaze. Three more feet and everyone will be able to see us together. See me…with the god of freaking death. ⚡ Can I get out of this? “Come on.” I guess I can’t. We emerge onto the teeming sidewalk, and I pause. Should I say goodbye before we part…or something? ⚡ Being required to attend the opening rites of the Crucible is worse than a trip down the River Styx.

[@christinegenta7754]

I loved the book of doors! I hope you do too 🤞🏻

[@JayGTheAwkwardBookworm]

I haven’t read so many of the nominees this time around 😭

[@spiritedreviewexc]

I will be very sad if Hanna Grace doesn´t win this year, because it was the only three books (that were part of a trio) that i finished. Sanderson is to old, did he have a new published book this year (wow that makes me sound dumb) ok if Bookstore and Bone Dust is not in the audio books i will be super sad. Some of Sanderson´s books could be considered ya
