The last time I read an entire book was probably 3 years ago. I've always had trouble picking books to read but 2 weeks ago I felt the urge to read but didn't know where to start. I decide to look up book reviews on KZbin and saw this video. I like Sci-fi and I liked how the book cover looked for The Seven 1/2 deaths of Evelyn Hardcastle, so per your recommendation I decided to give it a try and My God, I Love this book. I don't remember the last time, if ever, a book has made me feel all of these emotions. I highly enjoyed every second I spent reading it. I don't leave comments ever, but I felt that I need to thank you and inform you that I will be reading Mistborn next per your recommendation.

The Seven Husbands of Evelyn Hugo is a book that I bypassed and would have continued to bypass if you had not raved about it. IT just didn't seem like something I would be into, but I checked it out from my library after you mentioned it in a video and was blown away by how much I enjoyed it. This video also reminded me that I need to read The Humans. Over the last few years I have read and enjoyed a few other books that Matt Haig has written, but haven't gotten around to that one yet for some reason.

Dick. I also read the Andromeda Strain but didn’t enjoy it much, I would however recommend another Michael Crichton book to you in Eaters of the Dead which was incredible in my opinion
