Hi, I'm Sarah, and welcome to my channel!
I love reading fantasy, specifically unique, character-driven fantasy, but I am also down to mix it up with the occasional romance, nonfiction, or sci-fi.
I may also post about other fantasy-related things, like video games or shows!

it took me 10+ years to watch ATTACK ON TITAN.....here's what i thought!!
Просмотров 150Месяц назад
Like I said in the video...please don't come for me in the comments! I wanted to expand on something I said in the video: I think the pacing of the show/abruptness of season 4 was partially because I had been in it from the beginning. There was SO. MUCH. SNK content in 2013 and 2014 (and beyond) based on season 1, so I had a long time to get used to those ideas. If I had waited and watched it a...

recommending fantasy books without a plot!!
I will be starting with Mistborn next year. 😬😳 🤞🏻
Publication order makes sense to me👍 I started Elantris and then life side tracked me. I haven't forgotten the bit that I read and think of it often....and WANT to get back to it in the Spring
Awesome review 🥳 I totally want to reread this series at one point. Totally agree that there’s so much going on that you forget enough to reread it without being bored.
And Talyien is such a fantastic character!!! I loved her journey so much. All she had to go through… man 🫣 the aspect of her as a somewhat hated leader was also great
yay, thank you!!
I stayed for the whole video, but you sold me within the first two minutes 😂 definitely going to give it a shot and see if I enjoy it
hell yes!!!!!! I will say, i don't think it is a series for everyone, but i do really hope you enjoy it 😁
@ I’ll at least give it a shot, won’t know until I try it but HOPEFULLY I will 🤞
Getting a whole series that pretty is definitely understandable, but I’m also really hoping you enjoy it because loving a special edition makes it at least worth the money 😂
OMG SAME LOL I do have really high hopes for the series, it sounds like it will be right up my alley. I'm hoping that even if I don't like them, I can sell them for a similar price to make up most of what I paid for them
@ That’s very true, all in all it sounds worth it no matter the outcome
The black/white edges style for Bone Ships and Between Dragons and Wrath is probably my favorite that BB does. I wish they would do it more. So striking!
omg same! they add so much detail to them omg
They are getting so good with the sprayed edges. 🥰 would it be weird to buy the books just for the edges? 🤣
thats what I cant stop doing 🤣🤣
I too am a sucker for a special edition. I love those Ken Liu editions!
they are soooooo pretty omg 😍😍
My friend bought A Feather so Black for me as a birthday gift so I forced myself to finish it but I hated it 😭😭it was so long yet so little happened. The romance was so dull and not believable at all. I love fantasy romance but there is a lot of badly written fantasy romance out there.
oh no 😭😭😭😭 yeah that one was not it lol
I'm right there with you on needing to resist temptation of special editions books I haven't read yet. It's hard! But I've been burned by quite a few now.
I want to get a special edition book 📖😁 at some point ☝️. Not sure when exactly 💯. But soon
it's soooo hard!! but seeing the amount of special editions i have but haven't read yet makes it a little easier lol but there are so many pretty editions out there omg
@@faeryreads yep 👍🏻 💜. Maybe one day lol 😆
i sent her a letter and she sent me one back!
omg thats awesome!!!
I’m starting the Stormlight Archive for the first time next year, may the gods help me 😂 I’m reading the Cosmere in Sanderson’s reading order so Tress is next and then The Way of Kings. Hoping for the best 🤞
hell yes, you can do it! those books are so freaking long, but so worth it while reading them!
I love Howl's Moving Castle so much, both the movie and the book. Diana Wynne Jones is wonderful. They're so different though
they are super different! i'm curious how i would have felt about the book if i had read that first
I was about to ask for a Cosmere video when you just mentioned it 😅 I'm jumping into the Sanderson wagon but also kinda lost with the connection stuff, so that Cosmere video is definetely needed. Specially from someone with your experience and point of view. Looking forward to it!
oooh I can do that! do you want a more non-spoiler guide or a spoiler deep dive of what the connections are that could be easily missed?
@faeryreads I was thinking more like a non-spoiler guide so that it can also be useful to new readers. And more specifically which books are connected and which books and short stories should be read first to catch the references. I'm just starting with the Stormlight Archive after reading Warbreaker and the first Mistborn trilogy so it's about to get messy for me lol And thank you so much for considering it! Thanks to you I have doubled my TBR list 😅
hell yeah, I can definitely do that! I'll try to get that going in the next few weeks!
I had Daughter of the Forest on my TBR for two years now. It is one of my very few 5 stars prediction which Is why I can't pick it up 🙃
omg I know the feeling hahaha
If it makes it easier for you, the narrator of the audiobook of Pachinko is lovely ! So I ended up doing immersive reading, it made the book less daunting since the pacing is quite slow.
ooooh that is very good to know! I think it could be a really nice to listen to it. thank you!
I liked The Familiar but i can see why a lot of people were mixed on it. I'll be curious to see what you think.
I'm definitely excited to check it out! maybe ill get to it in november 🤔
I REALLY need to read T.Kingfisher, I have her books on my want to read list but I should prioritize them a bit more because you got me curious
hehehe yesss! i've been really loving them, i think the seventh bride is the only one i didn't really care for that i've read so far!
rhythm of war is my least favorite stormlight it was a real slog to get thorugh
honestly, i'm curious to see if i feel the same! i was deep in pandemic depression + seasonal depression + regular depression when i read it the first time and it was SUCH a slog, so i want to see if that was just true for me then or will always be true for me haha
Oathbringer is my least favorite so far too. Kind of took the steam out of my series momentum and I still haven’t continued. I loved When the Moon Hatched but totally get that it’s a very polarizing writing style. I’m surprised the descriptiveness didn’t bug me the way it usually does 😂
yeah, i feel like it broke my momentum as well lol idk why the writing style in WTMH in particular bothered me so much because I've read SO many others like it but I was just not having it lol
The God and the Gumiho is on my list!
yessss read it asap!
I have a couple of T Kingfisher books.... don't know why I haven't read them yet. Enjoyed your video..have a great day!
thank you, you too! I highly recommend them! I think there was just one or two of her books that I thought were okay so far, the rest have been great!
23:27 Oooh ..I have The Night Ends With Fire...will be moving it up on my TBR😊
yesssss!
20:03 Earthlings sounds disturbing... don't know that I could read it
yeah, i definitely was not prepared for what was coming with that book, if I'd known beforehand, I'm not sure I'd have read it
My fave Green Mtn Tuber! I really want to read The God and the Guhimo👍
😁😁 gotta represent VT! it was such a good read!
Beautiful Collection
thanks!!
I love when non-southerners say y'all. Join our cult!
hell yeah, im in!! I don't say it very often so it surprises me when it slips out 😂
Omg the Crash Landing on You stitching in the back 💙💙 Also the picture of Loid just being there is so valid. I love having prints of my favourite characters just chilling out lol. Love how it turned out, it really did fit perfectly!
I love crash landing on you so much 😭😭🥰🥰 I got that loid picture in a blind box, it was fate 😍 and thank you!
I can only listen to nonfiction on audio bc i get distracted so easily so I'd have to choose physical only.
Eragon may have been the worst movie ever made lol
LMAOOO idk about the absolute worst, but it's definitely up there
@@faeryreads True, i did see a movie called Seventh Son that may have been worse
I am behind my tag videos but I will in fact do them, just don’t wait up on me 😂 That being said the way some of these were actually so hard to choose! Omg
hahaha no worries! i literally filmed that like a month before i actually edited it lol
great answers! thanks again!
thanks!!
thanks for doing my tag!
lol… “either way, I’m screwed” yes… I know exactly how you feel 🤣
Yay!!! Great answers. not sure I could do audio at half time speed 😬
me neither, but I legit wouldn't understand anything at 3 times so I'd lose either way lmao
my only issue with this list is that all of these books are YA, not really my type, but thanks for the rec!
only Ash Princess and Fireborne are YA, the rest are adult!
lol I dnf'd a feather so black earlier this year sooo boring. also I agree about fantasy romance these authors are not skilled in writing both the romance/plot it makes for a lackluster story.
omg yes!! like at least if they are only going to focus on the romance, they could at least make that good but it never is lol
6 distinct first person present tense is a CHOICE lol
I'm still not over it hahaha I don't think ive ever read another book with that many first person POVs
I need more books based off of Korean history or in the setting of Korea. I may have to add this because this sounds up my alley
this made me realize that I don't know much fantasy inspired by korea specifically, I can think of Wicked Fox by Kat Cho, the Girl Who Fell Beneath the Sea by Axie Oh, and the Emperor's Soul by Brandon Sanderson. The God and the Gumiho by Sophie Kim is also I'm assuming, but I haven't gotten to that one yet.
@@faeryreads I believe I’ve only read one, which is a crime due to my interest in the Korean language and studying of it. I’ll have to look at some of the ones you read and maybe search up some more
@@BooksToAshes for some non-fantasy ones, I'd also recommend anything by June Hur (historical) and If I Had Your Face by Frances Cha and Kim Ji Young Born 1983 by Cho Nam Joo (contemporary). I have a couple of other historical and contemporary books on my TBR as well. I also feel like I should have read more lol especially because I'm always looking for translated books lol
@@BooksToAshes oh I forgot that I also read The Island of the Sea Women by Lisa See, which is how I initially learned more about Jeju's history, but I found that book incredibly triggering so idk how I feel about recommending it lol
I really enjoyed reading this book. I thought it was a lot of fun, the romance wasn't heavy-handed, and the characters were interesting. It's not Nobel literature by any means, but i do recommend it to others.
I agree!! Just a super fun read and the romance was handled a lot better than a lot of other similar books that I've read
Wait you actually finished Baldur’s Gate 3?? I do the thing where I play but love it too much to actually complete it 😂 I should get around to that…eventually
@BooksToAshes haha yes, I played like every waking moment for a week (other than work lol) because I just wanted to know what happens and it really took a toll on me hahaha I still have two other saves that i've started but am not even close to finishing
@BooksToAshes and one of my friends at work would talk with me about it, he finished it in like october so he would always be very playfully frustrated that I hadn't finished yet hahahaa
@@faeryreads Having a friend want to talk about it definitely helps. I have my main save which is my kind Druid and then my Durge that I’m afraid to touch. I should get back to it sometime 😅 congrats on finishing your first run!!
Ever After 😍 Iconic film I want to try Tairen Soul but people don’t talk about it in a way that sticks in my brain so that probably doesn’t bode well. I’m living for the 💜💙 DD editions too!! Can’t wait for them to ship
I just rewatched Ever After last week and I cant get over how much I love it 😭😭😍😍 I was so excited about Tarien Soul but C.L. Wilson's other series is a lot better imo, there's something about this one that was just SO forgettable
@@faeryreads yesss I swear it only gets better on re-watch! That’s good to know. The other one is The Winter King right?
I love KA and her WinterNight trilogy! This book doesn't have the same appeal. Did you like the book?
I think I liked Warm Hands of Ghosts even more than the Winternight trilogy!!
@@faeryreads Wow! Maybe I will give it a shot. Thank you!❤️
@@nataliebaker918 you're welcome, I hope you like it!
That reminds me.. I need to continue reading the Drizzt series, lol 🤣
is that the one that has like 40 books in it or is that just forgotten realms in general? either way, good luck haha
@@faeryreads yes, that's the one, lol
Heyyyyy💕
The Dandelion Dynasty covers 😍 I prefer the originals but the midnight ones are also stunning!
I do love the colors of the original but those purples are just soooo vibrant! I cant wait to see them irl!
This validates my not-for-me instinct about A Tempest of Tea (as much as I love tea magic and want it in more fantasy) Adolin is my ride or die! LOVE him He deserves way more page time than Sanderson gives him
I didn't think I'd like a Tempest of Tea 🤣 my BFF sent me it though so I was like well I can at least give it a shot haha! I agree, I need more Adolin!!
I've disliked Shallan from the beginning and she's progressively gotten worse for me. Whereas Adolin i've liked from the beginning and still do!
her quips are just so painful to read omg 😭😭
@@faeryreads i know 😭😭 I'm struggling through Rhythm of War right now so i can wrap up with book 5 while the hype is on 😣
@CD287- I wish you luck haha 😄
I just think brandon sanderson struggles writing woman tbh lol to her being corny that's the perfect word for her
I think he does too haha though I love Vin and I've enjoyed other female characters of his and even though that may not be a strength of his, I appreciate that he tries! I'd rather have corny shallan than no female characters at all hahaha
