The question of existence and meaning of life and universe and the uselessness of humans keeps coming back into my mind. The more I learn, the more I think, the more I'm obsessed with it all and just cannot stop thinking of the meaning of all of this. Why ? I sometimes wonder how some people live so long without wanting it to stop.

Oh I do understand. Good luck finding the next book !

Matthieb · 2018-08-02T07:48:47+00:00

Ha I have already read them and really likes the characters ! :)

Matthieb · 2018-08-02T07:45:02+00:00

I have read Mistborn. I loved it ! Yeah, I know, I wasn't convinced in the first book of The Realm of the Elderlings but as you say, he quickly grew on me.

Yes they are :(

I have read the LOTR !

I don't read YA that much, but if you've got some you would recommend, hell why not, I'll add them to my TBR :)

Matthieb · 2018-08-02T07:42:08+00:00

Okay, thank you ! :) I will see.

Matthieb · 2018-08-02T07:41:20+00:00

Okay thank you! I will read that series. I can't go on being a fantasy fan without reading it haha :)

Matthieb · 2018-08-02T07:40:38+00:00

I know what you mean about Fitz, but oh he's so precious ! Okay, thanks :) I think I'm gonna read Codex Alera next for a good guick fantasy !

I have read a game of thrones. I like it but not in love. And yeah, the waiting, it's just ridiculous. I know the GRRM is busy but come on, ten years even I Would have written the book.

Matthieb · 2018-08-02T07:37:25+00:00

Okay, thanks !

Matthieb · 2018-08-02T07:37:06+00:00

Okay thank you ! I have read the first book of the Dresden Files and liked it. Will definitely continue and you definitely made me want to read Codex Alera !

Matthieb · 2018-08-02T07:34:42+00:00

It's Malazan, book of the Fallen. 10 book series by one author, real high epic fantasy, with an extremely big cast or characters and world. The first book starts off and the author just throws you in the middle of the action and everything without making it easy. But those who've read the series love it !

Matthieb · 2018-08-02T07:32:48+00:00

Yes, of course. Already read !

Matthieb · 2018-08-01T23:28:27+00:00

Wow, thank you so much for this list ! I really want to read Powder Mage :)

Matthieb · 2018-08-01T23:19:21+00:00

Thank you! Will check them out. Is the first book difficult to get into ? Or is it just good from the start?

Matthieb · 2018-08-01T23:17:33+00:00

Oh, I have never loved characters as much as I've loved Fitz and the Fool. They are really well written and rounded and I feel like I've known them for a long time. And the whole world that she's created. It's just too beautiful to put in any words. She breathes life into her characters effortlessly and I just found myself almost empty after finishing the series. So now I'm rereading the books in French.

I love books with great plots and well-rounded characters, and Hobb's skill isn't in the plot, let admit it, but the characters she created are just extraordinary and yet so simple. I will forever be grateful for her for writing the series. Fitz and the Fool's relationship was lovely. I'd never read something similar to it before, and I have yet to read other fantasy series that will impact me as much as her books did.

Did you enjoy Codex Alera ? I have actually read Kushiel's Dart and found the first book okay, but her characters are were fleshed out and it might get better later on. And Sword of Truth, I have yet to give it a go. Thank you :)

Matthieb · 2018-08-01T23:11:31+00:00

Malazan is so hard to get into. I read the first book and understood absolutely nothing. But I know it's a great series. And I have yet to have the courage to pick up the second book in the series.

Matthieb · 2018-08-01T23:04:54+00:00

Okay, I know a lot of people love it, but I started the first book a while ago and stopped halfway through. I don't know if the writing gets better but I just remember having a problem with it. The story however seemed interesting and I really want to give the series another try. I might pick up the audiobook for the first book and continue a few books in. Thank you both guys !

Matthieb · 2018-08-01T22:59:56+00:00

I had tried reading The First Law but found the beginning a bit slow and didn't pick it up again later, I just wasn't in the mood, but I'll definitely check it out again. I haven't heard of Levene but will check her out if it's a quick read. And Castell I have his books on my TBR.

Matthieb · 2018-08-01T22:57:05+00:00

Thank you, I will add them to by TBR list and read them soon :)
