CPE states “I‘ll tell you right now, the doors to the world of Wild Women are few but precious…. If you have a scar…if you have an old, old story…if you love the water and sky so much…. If you yearn for a deeper..full…sane life… that is a door” What answers, understandings, affirmations do you seek in the books and stories you read?

Chrissyreadit I read a LOT of fantasy! where women have power, respect, opportunity… 2mo
lil1inblue I love books and stories that don't necessarily provide answers, but that provoke thought. Things that ask questions. I also like reading about experiences outside my own. 2mo

ImperfectCJ I'm not sure if I ask much from my books in terms of showing me a specifically woman-oriented viewpoint, but I gravitate towards stories that portray complex and nuanced characters, especially those that are realistic (i.e., flawed, neither all good nor all evil). I've been disappointed in a lot of fantasy as even in space or made-up worlds, the same gender stereotypes usually apply. I'd be interested in recs for books that break this. 2mo
TheBookHippie @ImperfectCJ have you read any Chloe Gong? 2mo
ImperfectCJ @TheBookHippie I haven't. It looks like she has a few series...which would you recommend? The newest (Coldwire) looks most appealing by its description, but is maybe more sci-fi than fantasy? 2mo
TheBookHippie @ImperfectCJ https://thechloegong.com/secretshanghai/ I would do this one. It always feels it takes a bit but then you‘re in. I adored these so much all of them. 2mo
TheBookHippie @ImperfectCJ I think you‘re right about Coldwire but feel free to join us to find out we‘re reading it together in January. If you look at our hashtag maybe you can get a feel #CHLOEGONGREADALONG we read the first book of hers for #SUNDAYBUDDYREAD and then went to a different group to just read all her books. I hope that makes sense. 2mo
ImperfectCJ @TheBookHippie I might join y'all for the Coldwire readalong (if I'm not overwhelming myself with too many buddy reads already...), but I'm still a little uncertain about the Secret Shanghai series...it's described as romantic fantasy, and I didn't like ACOTAR, so I'm pretty leery of romantic fantasy. 2mo
TheBookHippie @ImperfectCJ I don‘t read romance as a rule 🤣 fantasy rarely. It really is off my normal reading. 😊😅 I didn‘t even try ACOTAR because no. 🤣🫣 2mo

Ooooh listen I had to read Romeo and Juliet in high school and this made me actually want to read it again?? I had a great time. I did have to keep reminding myself that Roma and Juliette are like 19 though, and it‘s the 1920s, bc they seemed so much older. I already have the sequel borrowed on Libby tho!

4 stars | #historicalfantasy

TheBookHippie We read all her books in our little group #CHLOEGONGREADALONG our next group read is January 2026 🙃 3mo
MsRadioSilence @TheBookHippie oh neat! I‘m going to try to catch up on her backlog before the end of the year 3mo

Great reading month for January! I finished 19 books total & read almost all I set out to. I think weekly plane rides & trying to avoid media upped my reading time. Finished all 3 #Roll100 books, 3 from my #AuldLangSpine list from @JacqMac + #AuthorAMonth #SundayBuddyRead #ChildrensClassicRead2025 #NancyDrewBR #BobWhiteBuddies #FoodandLit #ChloeGongReadalong #ThematicCozies #FictionalTraveler #Naturalitsy #MidWinterSolace #JaneAustenThenAndNow ⬇️

DebinHawaii … & #SeriesLove2025 & also had some library books sneak their way in. I enjoyed most everything I read (although I got a little heavy with Nazis/Fascists books for a month of political horror that was depressing but some lighter books pulled me out). Top 3 Favorites were Bad Cree, Lula Dean‘s Little Library of Banned Books & The Night Guest. (edited) 9mo
Librarybelle That is a great reading month! 9mo

Read for #ChloeGongReadAlong & my 3rd Jan #Roll100 book (#96 Any Retelling & this one‘s a remix of Shakespeare‘s Antony and Cleopatra.)

Chloe Gong books are a rollercoaster🎢-thrills, twists, turns & deep dives into the unknown. Do I know what the hell is going on in this book or what‘s going to be revealed in the third book? Absolutely not! Do I care? Absolutely not! I just go where Chloe tells me too.
