Currently reading the Chronicles of St Mary’s series. I’m on book 10, which is the last one that I own, but I’ve really enjoyed the series so will definitely pick up the rest at some point.
It’s a series about historians who time travel to document historical events, so there’s an accurate telling of the story rather than things being disputed. It often ends up going wrong though. It’s rather light-hearted (apart from book 8 where everything goes a bit serious), and the humour is great. Similar humour to Terry Pratchett’s books, I would say, though I haven’t read loads of his work.
I took a break (almost a week now) after reading Toni Morrison’s Song of Solomon. Before that, it was her The Bluest Eye. Thinking of reading The Dispossessed by Ursula K. Le Guin
I finished started the cradle series about 2 months ago and finished the first 11 just as the 12th one came out. I find it so easy to read but it kinda made getting into something a bit more serious kinda hard lol. I really liked it tho and I think the ending was well executed.
I’m currently on a reread of red rising for the upcoming release of The 6th book. On book 2 at the moment and definitely quite enjoying it again. Would recommend checking the series out if you like sci-fi/fantasy
Still my favorite series by a mile. I grew up with the series, and would reread the whole series before a new one was released. I was crushed when Robert Jordan died because I thought that meant the series would never be finished (and he seemed like a cool dude). I was ecstatic when they picked Brandon Sanderson to finish it, partly because he’s also one of my favorite authors, but also because that dude is a machine that cranks out quality writing at an insane pace.
I just finished rereading the series for probably the 15th time a few months ago, it might be time to start again.
P.s. it’s just getting started at book 3. Lord of Chaos (#6) is one of my favorites.
My advice is don’t hesitate to just read the wiki/cliff notes on the chapters if things start dragging on for you. It’s worth finishing, but some of the middle books have so little that happens.
I’m on the mermaid story. I get why people who read the books/play the game have issues with the show, but as someone who started watching the show first, it’s really not that bad.
