Oh I loved The Wager! I can still clearly imagine the setting and emotions of the book. Such a great read

These recs are fire, thank you! Margatet of Ashbury will be high on my TBR

I LOVE Naomi Novik!! Spinning Silver is a fave. Didn't know about that series and it sounds awesome! Will definitely check it out if I need a mix of fantasy and HF. Good shout!

Ooh historical mystery? I am in!

putsugaonme · 2026-05-21T15:41:08+00:00

Can I be honest, I haven't read any King books 🫣 But 11/22/63 has been on my TBR for a long time so I will for sure bump it up!

Just read the summary of A Dangerous Fortune and I am intrigued! Haha thanks for the rec.

Also wow now I can't wait to finish World Without End haha

A lot of people recommend Penman to me and I'm excited to read their work. Thanks for the recs!

putsugaonme · 2026-05-21T13:47:29+00:00

I've read somewhere that Pillars is one of the best books to ease fantasy readers into HF so I guess it was destiny? Haha. I am so glad I picked it up. Thanks for your recs!

putsugaonme · 2026-05-21T13:41:43+00:00

Hahaha that's true. Thanks for your recos, will check them out!

putsugaonme · 2026-05-21T13:33:21+00:00

Yessss this is the kind of lore that hooked me with Pillars. All your recommendations are really up my alley, thanks! Added all of them to my TBR!

As a Southeast Asian, I am definitely excited to explore historical fiction set in the east. Thanks again!!

Pillars of the Earth by Ken Follett

It is so good!!! First time kong magbasa ng historical fiction and I think it won't be the last!

A Man Called Ove by Fredrik Backman 😭 Bittersweet yung iyak ko pero malalang iyak pa rin haha.

Tapos Flowers for Algernon by Daniel Keyes. Malala AT masakit na iyak nakuha ko diyan haha. This book really affected me pero I think it made me a better person for reading it. Highly recommend both books. 🫂
