Episode Thirteen Is House Of Leaves For Babies (it's me, i'm babies)

Episode Thirteen takes the style of House of Leaves and the promise of The Haunting of Hill House. It masterfully combines them into a haunted house story unlike any I've read. #booktube #thehauntingofhillhouse

    We love a rating-stabilizing Queen 😂 This was such a fun rant review. This sounded like This Is Us but sports (drama, constant hooks, emotionally draining), but missing the character depth. At least the physical book feels good so there's less buyers remorse!

    I am always reading books and have no cut off date. So I am siding with your sister. Sorry. I chose my first book via random number generator (City of Bones by Martha Wells). I gave it 3 stars; the ending needed an epilogue. The rest of my tbr is based on my StoryGraph challenges. It already made me have a 5 star read (The Lies of the Ajungo). It is a short fable/ novella. I really liked Red Rabbit (4 stars), I read it last year. It was very episodic (monster of the week) and I flew through it. I had no expectations going into it, so it was a surprise to me.

    STUPID book - but I couldn't put it down. I totally thought Frannie was going to be the daughter Caz had given up for adoption and possibly Daniel was going to end up being the son Smith had abandoned - truly - THAT would have made more sense than Daniel and Frannie being actors. Like a secret revenge reality show pitting mom against daughter and dad against son. And what was up with the dogs - I really thought Frannie's air challenge was going to be something to do with putting the dogs at risk.

    I enjoyed Echoes of Wisdom. It was my first Zelda game but somehow didn't actually feel like a Zelda game, based off watching other people play them. I played Cult of the Lamb when it was free on switch last year and really liked it. Recommendations: Sheepy: A Short Adventure was one of my absolute favorites. It's really short (I played three time and I think the longest I took to finish was still under an hour). The sequence after you get the ability to run I found absolutely stunning. Spiritfarer was another fun one. It's very heavy on grief so you definitely need to be ready for that. I just finished Dredge. It's a Lovecraftian fishing game that's free if you have Amazon Prime right now. I'm definitely going to check out Chants of Sennaar.

    • @abundanceofbooks17
      @abundanceofbooks17 Месяц назад

      Such good recommendations! Spiritfarer is definitely on my list, but I need to be in the right mood for emotional devastation. Sheepy looks adorable and free, so I'll definitely be checking that one out.

    Enjoyed the video and great list of books. I am interested in reading The Au Pair now - thanks for sharing your views on that book. A recent book I read that I loved is Home is Where the Bodies Are. I found the characters amazing and it's a book that has a few small mysteries. Riley Sager and Lucy Foley are both authors I have complicated reading relationships with. If I think about Lucy Foley, I loved The Guest List but thought The Paris Apartment was awful and didn't really enjoy The Hunting Party. I'd need more time to talk about my Riley Sager thoughts.

    Really enjoyed this video. I agree that Travis Baldree is fantastic, and Bookshops and Bonedust was the better book. I did read it before Legends & Lattes and I probably would say it's better to read in that order. Romantasy is not something I've really jumped on to read, but I am reading the Twilight series and Cassandra Clara for the first time at the moment, with mixed results.
