Emily Wilde's Encyclopaedia of Faeries: A Novel | Heather Fawcett

pick

Absolutely dazzling with sweetness and light academia. I thought Emily would annoy me in that FMC way of “ohh I‘m so bad at people that all my actions are all beyond cringe.” However, no, the juxtaposition of Emily and Bambleby is genuinely sweet, and I loved Emily more and more. I need more light hearted adventurous fantasy. Thank you, @Kimberlone , who has been recommending this since she read it. #fantasy #audiobook #fairy

When Sorrows Come: An October Daye Novel | Seanan McGuire

pick

Another good installment in the October Daye series, but I did find one thing disappointing. I was excited that this book was set in Toronto (close to where I live) but almost all the action happened in the hidden faerie realm. The only Toronto references were the overused Tim Hortons jokes. We really do have more than Tim Hortons here in Canada! 😄

Librarybelle I‘ve heard of Tim Horton‘s but did not realize it‘s a Canadian company 2d

Hooked_on_books But Timbits are so good! Especially the chocolate ones. Yum! 2d

kwmg40 @Librarybelle They're not wholly Canadian these days, as there is some foreign ownership, but Tim's was founded in the 1960's by Canadian hockey player Tim Horton, and there's pretty much a Tim's in every Canadian city and town, no matter how small. 2d

Librarybelle Good to know! I think I‘ve seen one near Erie, Pennsylvania but have not visited. 2d

kwmg40 @Hooked_on_books My family had to try the Timbiebs (a collaboration with Justin Bieber) when they came out, but my favourites remain the chocolate glazed and old fashioned. 2d

TheAromaofBooks Yes, we have Tim Horton's here in Ohio... TimBits are the best!! 2d

kwmg40 @TheAromaofBooks Nice to see appreciation of Tim's elsewhere in the world! My daughter lives in London where a Tim's opened up recently. She said there were long lineups, which seemed weird to us, as Tim's is just the local no-frills coffee shop to us Canadians. 😄 2d

❤️❤️❤️❤️ I in short inhaled this one. Definitely a one sitting read. I love the world building. I love the characters. Honestly Holly Black is the measure I use for any fae related series...

Clare-Dragonfly Holly Black is the best! 1mo

The Prisoner's Throne | Holly Black

I finally got my hands on The Prisoner‘s Throne and read it so fast I didn‘t even have time to update any of my various book related social media. But don‘t these all look beautiful on the shelf together?

The Prisoner's Throne | Holly Black

#serieslove2024 The new Holly Black book was pretty good. I wanted Wren‘s POV, but this one was told by Oak so we learn more about his motivations and plans. Lots of attempts to fix things from book 1 and right the wrongs. That super abrupt ending makes me think there‘s going to be another book? ⭐️⭐️⭐️

At first I was disappointed this wasn‘t a dual POV for Wren and Oak but I got over it 🙂 I really enjoyed learning more about Oak and getting time with his dysfunctional family❤️❤️ Jude and Cardan 🙌🏾🙌🏾 the last half of the book had me totally stressed out and I really hope that ending means future books in this series. ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️
