It's time to spruce up the shelves, and doing this always inspires me to pick more up off of them. The first is mostly TBR and the second is mostly favourites and this is just a timelapse of all the tidying and sorting.

The first 5*s for a fiction book in 2024 and I have to say I can see why everyone enjoyed this so much, I am very much in the group consensus. This book is the first in a new series by Islington and I really liked immersing myself into a new world of his, as he just writes such fun concepts and I can see him becoming more of a favourite as time goes on.

    I've had The Bitterbynde trilogy for decades but haven't yet read it. I also have the first three books of the sequel series. I tried one of Sara Dougless' books several years ago but couldn't get into it. I unhauled the books.

    Great haul !! I also have The Ill-Made Mute on my shelf. I picked it up from a second hand book shop a few years ago...but I haven't read it yet. My son has read the Runemarks series and loved it.i think it is slightly norse inspired....if I remember correctly what he told me about it. Enjoy your pile of loveliness! 📚 My most recent purchase was Unraveller by Francis Hardinge.

    • @kittygbooks
      @kittygbooks 2 дня назад

      Ooh I’ve read a few of Hardinge’s titles and they’re always nice ones. Hope you enjoy and hopefully I can get to the ill-made mute soon and see what it’s all about.

    I haven't read all of it but Bitch focuses more on the animal kingdom and how diverse and nonbinary it really is and how over the history of biology scientists (especially men) would try and force their own biases on the animals they were studying. Unruly sounds right up my alley, will have to check it out.

    • @kittygbooks

    I was interested because of the theme, but I’m going to pass because sounds like too much romance for me.

    • @kittygbooks
      @kittygbooks 8 дней назад

      I’d say the romance is secondary to everything else by quite a way, I don’t love romance usually as I say, but I liked how the relationships were handled here.

    I'm glad I found thus video, here's some back story: About the time you posted this video , I read this series. I was 14, young, and in love with the fantasy genre. Now here I am, a decade later, with a broken leg and bored out of my mind. I decided to break out this book series. I've mostly forgotten the plot since it's been so long, so I decided to RUclips this book, and your video came up. It's still absolutely crazy that I remember most of these characters now and the story throughout the series since I've heard your review. Thank you! Much love from California from this currently crippled nerd. (Edit) Now that I've looked at your RUclips profile and see you have over 1.2k videos and some fantasy book reviews, I'm now subscribed. I didn't know I'd be on the book review side of RUclips, but here I am. Thanks for all the content! Now I have stuff to binge while I heal!

    • @kittygbooks
      @kittygbooks 10 дней назад

    So I have some great news for you: if you enjoyed Lily's writing then she's actually got TWO other books out under her other pen name, Caitlyn L. Strauss-The Night City and The Night People are the first two books in her Nocturnum Files series. Unlike the books under her Lily C. Strauss pen name (which fall closer to M/M paranormal romance), the books under Caitlyn L. Strauss are really murder mystery detective procedurals in urban fantasy setting...or maybe it's sci-fantasy or straight up sci-fi, depending on how you want to define an alternate universe with a parallel species of nocturnal humans with psychic powers. (Disclosure: I am in Lily/Caitlyn's writing group so I've read all her books under both pen names and as someone who reads mostly epic fantasy and virtually no romance, I've found the Nocturnum Files books to be more aligned to my usual reading preferences.)
