Red Rising series is on my wishlist, people with similar taste to mine have recommended it to me a few times.

I agree about classics. While I enjoyed a few, there are many I didn’t appreciate, but I don’t like forcing them. If I feel like reading one, I do, if I don’t, I just let it go.

I have heard good things about the series. Glad to see you are enjoying them.

I just bought first 3 books of Jack Reacher series, going to try them out soon.

A month more and you could’ve hit a “reading for more than an year” benchmark 😀

Good luck on cheering up!

Ah, like that ‘Cursed Child’ Harry Potter book, whose existence I refuse to acknowledge.

Let me know what you think about Jonathan Strange and Mr. Norrel. It has been on my backlog for a long long time.

I haven’t read any side stories either, but I have got the first collection of short stories lined up, but I think only 2-3 are during first 8 books (where I am), rest are in the future, so going to read them along side main novels.

Thanks for the recommendation!

There’s a fourth? Isn’t it a trilogy?

From Manufacturing Consents to Sodom and Gomorrah to The Riddler. That’s a nice combination 😀

Which one are you liking the most?

The magicians

Lev Grossman’s? I read it a long time ago, and while it wasn’t a quick read, I remember enjoying it. Haven’t read any of the sequels though. Have been thinking about rereading the book and then getting the sequels.

Yeah, some of the books in the middle are pretty slow. Things get better from Book 10 though, or was it Book 11?

What If is on my wishlist, but haven’t gotten around to getting it yet. Never heard of The Planiverse before, but the concept sounds pretty interesting, will check it out.

Oooh, that’s great!

Though, it did take him 15 years to write the sequel, so I am going to wait and see if the story is finished, if not, going to wait for it to finish before I jump back in.

The title seems familiar, but I don’t recall hearing about it. Going to check it out.

lol. Well, if you like something, there is no need for any rationalization, just enjoy it.

Just looked it up, apparently it’s not a cook book…

How are you liking it so far?

I started it a loooong time ago, soon afte LotR, and gave up after 50 pages or so, and never visited it again. I have heard it becomes it own things in later novels.

I like Terry Brooks’ other work, so glad that you are enjoying it!

Yeah, so many books, so little time. I have books in my wishlist for more than a decade, and even some in backlog for a very long time.

Sounds interesting, will check it out.

Ah, cool. How are you liking the book vs the movie?
