Book roast is one of my favorite booktubers, but I'm not really up to date with her videos. but it sounds like a good idea to get rid of some of your books in your tbr :)

Oh! good to know. Maybe I'll try to see if I can get the audiobook :)

Seems like it's a well loved book. I guess I'll just have to read it ;) But I'll try to finish one of my other books first.

Hey guys !

I just watched A Discovery of Witches 's first two episodes and I love it. Has any of you read the books? I really want to read it now. But I've already started 5 other books. lol.

The TV show is definitely better. There's more depth to it. But even before the show, the book was pretty popular.

extra points? (just putting it here in case Elen doesn't finish her book) word in text "Zombies are real." (p1)

All these pecan pie talk made me crave one. So when I went for lunch yesterday and saw they had some, I could not resist. so good !


I just finished a Z book, with main character Zahra. It's an Aladdin retelling and it was really good. I loved it. If you like YA retellings I truly recommend this one.

that's too bad. I can try and read two in the series, but I can't guarantee that I'll be able to finish both before sunday.

question: would Alice in Zombieland work for "word in title" ? I wouldn't mind rereading that one. And it should be a quick read too.

I had the exact same problem with Uprooted. Now I really want to read Spinning Silver, but at the same time I'm hesitent because of my experience with Naomi Novik's writing....

yeah... I have a feeling I shouldn't trust that statement...

*goes on the book's page to check my friends reviews*

yep, sounds absolutely terrible, if all the 1 star reviews are anything to go by. lol

While I participated in the TTVI, it was a tough period for me. I was writing my master thesis (so yeah, living under a rock pretty much) at the time and didn't interact much with the group except to report the books I read. And I certainly didn't have the time to play quidditch, as much as I would have liked to. I heard that there were some really terrible books read during the game, but nothing specific.

What's Kadin???

Problem with MM shifters books is that they are often quite short... not long enough for this particular challenge

Sonia wrote: "Ehehehehe

Well, now I'm annoyed, because TJ Klune is set to torture me. His books are 400 pages. Like 00, not 01.

But, I had a taste for real MM shifter books and now I want more. Since I'm not s..."

MM shifter books.... Now I want to read one!
I'd be tempted to read that TJ Klune one, but the 400 page counts seems like such a waste....
