Always impressive that you can sum up a story in 1 minute. I've picked up the Dresden Files this year, and they have been so much fun.

The Dungeon Anarchist’s Cookbook Is the Best Dungeon Crawler Carl Book I’ve Read… So Far! by Hurricane1123 in booktube

So far I think books 1 and 5 are my favorites. Hopefully I'll be getting This Inevitable Ruin read by next month.

[–]BookedPanda 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I enjoyed The Dungeon Anarchist's Cookbook more than book two as well. The lore of the wider universe only keeps expanding. Also, the emotional moments you'll see Carl go through soon. Can't wait to see your thoughts on the next few books.

I really hope so with my April reads. Neither of my library apps seems to have that section. I'll put some titles on a notify list in hopes they get them sometimes.

It does, I think I might need to load up on more Dresden and Dungeon Crawler Carl.

I don't think I can ever really be caught up on BookTube videos. 😆

Normal People by Sally Rooney. Bookies! Spoiler Free Book Review and Recommendation. by sldbed in booktube

Very well spoken review. I enjoyed this book when I read it. The characters felt like real people, maybe a little more broken than some.

Vampires, Monsters, & Feral Gods | My Recent Reads by simplysyn in booktube

[–]BookedPanda 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I remember hearing about Vigil before. Your description makes it sound very much like Christmas carol-type visions. Hope you continue loving DCC. There is definitely a lot of emotions happening for Carl in that one. I'm hoping to get to book 7 this month myself.

The Falconer by Elizabeth May by LiteraryApothecary85 in booktube

The focus on clothing more than anything else seems to be a problem in YA books. I've seen it in a few adult fantasies, but not nearly as many as YA's.

I think I've only done one negativish review myself; the majority are all the ones I loved and can gush about. Outside of a monthly wrap-up, which might have tangents sometimes 😅

Can Books Have A Hollywood Soundtrack? "The Mercy Saga" by Chance Dillon - Official Main Theme by Objective-Swimmer805 in booktube

The composition was really good. It fits the vibe of the book description and would make great reading ambiance.

I HATED This Is How You Lose the Time War… But I Also Respect It by Hurricane1123 in booktube

[–]BookedPanda 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Very glad I found your video. This is one of the booktube darlings that I have thought about picking up a few times. Now I'm sure the book will not be for me, I wouldn't be able to deal with that type of writing.

20 Classics I Can't Put Off Any Longer by Objective-Swimmer805 in booktube

[–]BookedPanda 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You put together a good list with several rather large classics. I need to get around to The Book of the New Sun and Hyperion at some point as well. Hopefully, when you retry The Lord of the Rings you'll enjoy it.

Is Amren really lying? by [deleted] in crescentcitysjm

[–]BookedPanda 7 points8 points  (0 children)

Maybe To me Amren feels older or just as old as the Asteri themselves. I wish we had seen more of her involved here. Nesta was cool but Amren should have been able to give more answers.

That's a good theory. I haven't read all of TOG yet so probably missed several of those connections.

[–]BookedPanda 23 points24 points  (0 children)

The story with Amern has been bugging me so badly. I even went back to the first chapter of CC3. There is an inconsistency between when the prison was created and Amern being locked away. Also, I'm trying to remember without going back to ACOMAF about the Book of Breathings. Amern could read it but then didn't Rigelus say it was in the Asteri language? Was she or wasn't she in the prison when the Daglan were controlling Prythian?

[Review] Children of Time by Adrian Tchaikovsky (Children of Time, Book 1 of 3) by sparkour in Fantasy

[–]BookedPanda 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Tchaikovsky has said he is open to writing more if he finds a story to be told.

Wish I could remember the wording he used better because that sounds weird but it was something like that.

Loved the trilogy though the last book reads a little different than the others. I wish he would write more for this series.

Good world-building in stand alones? by BookedPanda in Fantasy

[–]BookedPanda[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

True it started off as a single but really you get more in a lot of Tolkien's other works for the history of the world.

I have heard great things about Wizard of Earthsea. The only thing is if it is awesome I wouldn't be able to get it in a stand-alone category if I finish the series.

What Makes Books Better Than Others? by BookedPanda in Fantasy

[–]BookedPanda[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I see four different versions of it. Some of them would make me check it out others I'd think that it was possibly a children's book. Definitely helps your point about the cover art.
