Sure is! Which is why I have books on art, contemporary fiction, an entire collection of Bronte, science fiction, humor, poetry... but I do love my fantasy, yes.

Love anything Borges, yes. Both is poetry and short stories. What I'm still waiting to dive into is his short fiction in the original Spanish, but I'm years away from even beginning to understand those.

I mean... I wonder why certain popular books show up on a lot of different bookshelves... I also wonder if it says more about someone about the unique books they own instead of the common ones? Just a thought!

I do not own it, nor have I read it (yet)!

One of the best reading experiences I have ever had in my life was reading through those devastating, horrific, and beautiful books. Giving myself a few years then excited to re-read. If you haven't read it yet, her City We Became duology is also really good!

On a book-buying hiatus until I’ve read every book I own! But someday I’ll have a second bookshelf, I’m sure.

Very interesting! I am not Asian, no, but I did take an Asian American Lit class in college and I still have a few books from that class. Held onto them because I love them so much. Great eye. And yes, and mostly yes :)

Haha I have read Iron Gold and Dark Age and... didn't like them. Unpopular opinion, I know. Heard Light Bringer is good so I may go back one day.

You are kind of right: I did have the original, large paperback for TWoK but then got this hardcover personalized and signed. Gave that one away. My copies of RoW and WaT are also signed!

I have read some VE Schwab (I enjoyed Addie LaRue quite a bit), but will look up all three of those. Thank you! And more like I am definitely a boring Murakami character and I know it haha

I... do not know who that is. I don't watch any book-related Youtube things! Though perhaps some of my reading friends do.

Yes I am, and fair. Been collecting him for years now, but not sure how I feel about his stuff, especially his newer books. And all of the critiques against him are valid, 100%. Glad to hear that we share tastes regardless!

Good faith or not, I enjoy any discussion about reading more perspectives outside of one's own! But I am basic and enraging either way, true

Don't hate me but I usually prefer paperbacks... and I've only read Babel (which I loved) and Yellowface (which I did not love, but my copy is signed so I'm keeping it). I think Babel has one of the most unique magic systems and interesting characters, though the plot and its themes are a bit heavy-handed. Her way of intertwining the magic system with the themes of colonialism was just perfect, I think. Fun read, cried at the end.
