It really helps having a memory for book cover colours when people decide to use the alphabet as a suggestion only while shelving…

It was only 3 shelves off where it was meant to be 🙄

Our vacation audio. Not for me. At all. Too many characters to keep track of, too many grisly deaths & fights, and way too long.

IuliaC I totally agree! I'm reading this one now and I'm most likely not going to waste any more time on it 11mo

Bookwormjillk Agree. Thought it was just me. 11mo

TheSpineView Agree!!! 11mo

TheAromaofBooks This one didn't work for me, either. I didn't care of the characters - who all felt amazingly self-absorbed - and for as long as it was, there were still some gaps in the world-building that left me a little confused. 11mo

janeycanuck @IuliaC @Bookwormjillk @TheSpineView @TheAromaofBooks Oh, I‘m so glad there are so many other dissenters!! It‘s gotten such buzz and acclaim (and my partner LOVED it) and I just… I didn‘t even bother trying to figure out what I missed if I fell asleep during our listening time. 11mo

I just found out today that one of my favorite fantasy books is getting a prequel! 🎉🎉🎉 Yes, Priory of the Orange Tree is getting an 800+ page prequel entitled: A Day of Fallen Night! It's coming out in January and to say that I'm excited would be a huge understatement! 😁💕📚

Karisa 👏👏👏 Hurray! I love that book too! (edited) 2y
