    Jonathan Strange and Mr Norrell is my favorite book of all time. It’s just wonderful, the characters are amazing and the plot is... ugh I can’t even explain how amazing it is. I ended up reading this two times in less than six months (which is really unusual of me because I rarely reread books at all). 100% would recommend.

    I just completed reading Six of Crows and all I can say is that I am in love with Kaz Brekker. I don’t think I have been so fascinated by any other book as much as by Six of Crows 😍
    Also, The Seven Husbands, it’s on my tbr list, hope to read it soon 😍😍

      Ahh Kaz is just the best! 😍 I'm currently reading Crooked Kingdom and by the time I finish this duology I will have a Kaz Brekker's shaped hole in my heart 😢 PS. Can we get a little moment of appreciation for Jesper too? He's just the sweetest ❤️

    Strange and Norrell has actually been made into a TV show too but the book has my interest!!! Intricate magic systems are the best. Your make up matches Fire. The Shades seems like it has good character progression defo want to read. UGH Hugo isn't my normal kind of book but now you're convincing me to try. Are the world's of Shadow and Bone and Six of Crows interlinked?

  • @RebeccaReads
    @RebeccaReads 5 лет назад +2

    So confusing seeing you post a winter wrap up when the UK (where I'm from) is wrapping up summer!!
    I definitely need to get to a darker shade of magic and you've persuaded me to try Jonathan Strange as I have that as well!
    I've also heard so much about seven husbands so I think I'll have to pick that up too :)
    Do you need to read shadow and bone series before six of crows?

  • @emlikesbooks
    @emlikesbooks 5 лет назад +1

    Evelyn Hugo will EASILY make my top books of the year, it is SO WORTH THE HYPE! Also, so glad you loved Six of Crows--I felt similarly about Grisha and was nervous that I wouldn't love SoC because of that... but I can definitely say I was wrong and Crooked Kingdom might even be better...

  • @LucieReads

    For a recommendation I'd recommend Picture Us In The Light by Kelly Loy Gilbert, haven't seen nearly enough people talking about it

    Jonathan Strange and Mr Norrell is such and amazing book. I loved it and my bf who has some difficulty reading big books finished it in less than a month and it was so great! Is historical but it is also fantastical and the characters were great and really well developed and focused on england... Great book.

  • @vivianwakoff

    Finally someone who is on the same season as me! (I'm in Brazil!) I just finished Evelyn Hugo and loved it! You should read If I Was Your Girl! It's on the top of my winter list, right next to Evelyn Hugo!

  • @broccbadgerbean
    @broccbadgerbean 5 лет назад

    Oh man! I have only read Six of Crows out of this list but definitely intrigued to read all of them now... Recommendations? City of Brass by S. A. Chakraborty, and The Boneless Mercies by April Genevieve Tucholke. Both have captivated me ♡

      The meteorological seasons are opposite in the southern hemisphere. The Australian winter (which consists of June, July and August) is slightly colder than the other seasons. But of course, their winter is not as harsh and cold as the ones in other parts of the globe. It depends on the climate.
