    it’s funny how someone who loved “the likeness” by tana french influenced you to read it and end up loving it because in turn, now i’m really interested in the book. i don’t know if i will ever get to reading “the secret history” by donna tartt despite its popularity, but “the likeness” draws me in more just based on your introduction of the book. plus i’m an english major so it could probably make the story more enjoyable (key word: possibly) reading about a group of english students so we’ll just have to see

    I own Dark Matter. Just haven't read it yet. Read The Book Thief and I'm so glad I did!

    I think I’ve said this before but I think we have really similar tastes! I’ve only read 3 of these but they are all favorites of mine. The chaos walking trilogy is one of my favorite series ever - I love the way it’s told but also the message behind the series!! And the other two are dark matter and the book thief, more all time favorites! Now I’m excited to read the rest of the things on this list!

    • @ToriMorrow

    Almost all my favorite books from the past few years are from Booktube recs! What a fun video to reflect back on that.

    • @ToriMorrow

    We have such similar taste in books! I’m excited to look into the few I haven’t heard of. I’m going to give Dark Matter a try but I tried reading his other series (The Pines series!) and I was really spooked out 🥺- anyway, I’m excited to follow your channel 🤓

  • @krissythewhimsy
    @krissythewhimsy 4 года назад +2

    Dark Matter was one of my faves as well. Another booktuber recommended to me as well :) I flew through it and loved it!

    Hi Tori. Just stumbled upon your channel this morning and I’m so glad I found it. I’ve only read Dark Matter and I agree, it’s an excellent read. I can not wait to try the Patrick Ness trilogy though. I’ve always wanted to try his books. Thanks for the recommendation and happy reading!

    I know I'm 2.5 years late to this party, but hey I'll comment. I also loved so many of the books I've read because of BookTube. I loved the Wayfarers series, too. And I've read and enjoyed The Book Thief, mostly because Markus Zusac came to a nearby town (around the time you posted this video, I think) and I wanted to read at least one of his books before going to his talk and asking for a signature. And if you like knowing that an author is a good person, I'm pretty sure that Markus Zusac is a good and genuine human. He's very patient with his fans and takes the time to sign and personalize books for people. Which isn't required- not everyone wants to be social and there's other ways to be nice and be appreciative of one's fans and stuff. But, I still took it as a good sign. It's my goal to someday be able to meet Becky Chambers, cause she's so awesome.

      Also, I'm dating myself, but I just looked up the publication year for The Book Thief because I was shocked it wasn't required reading in my high school. It wasn't published yet... I feel so old now.

    Regan was my first booktuber too! Some of my favorites from the last couple years have been her recs. I'm definitely going to check out a few that you spoke about here that I haven't read yet. Thanks!

  • @classicsed

    Love this topic for a video! You already know that you've been the source of so many great books I've read over the last few years :) Scythe, Do You Dream of Terra-Two? (which I'd not heard about anywhere else), and so many more. Peruse Project has given me lots of awesome fantasy recs (Daevabad trilogy, Broken Earth trilogy), and I heard about Lovely War, which I adored, from Read with Cindy. Incidentally, I'm adding Dark Matter to my near-term TBR--sounds amazing!

    • @ToriMorrow
      @ToriMorrow  4 года назад

      Yay! I’m glad you’ve enjoyed the recommendations over the years ☺️ And so many great fantasy books have been brought to my attention because of Peruse Project! I think her channel is how I first heard City of Brass and The Mistborn 😃

    Gads, I have *loads* of favs from BT since I discovered it late in 2017 but a lot of them are from negative or lacklustre reviews rather than gushes because I do like to be difficult 😆... Many are totally new to me genres, again because hearing them being discussed in detail on BT made realize how I wanted them all (!) and realise that dystopian/apocalyptic stories of all types are _totally_ my jam.

    Something to make you laugh a bit. I have been binge watching your videos and I listen mostly doing something else on the computer. When a book sounds in my alley, I go back to the video and try to catch the title and the author but you're shaking the damn book all the time. I have been spending some time now trying to piece all the words lol.

    I have read all of Tana French’s books, but The Likeness is by far my favorite.

    • @ToriMorrow
      @ToriMorrow  4 года назад +1

      The Likeness is so good! Which of her other novels do you recommend? I have The Witch Elm but have been hesitant to start that one

    Anyone who likes Tana French is a friend of mine. I read all of her books I only dislike the last one but even that one is better than a lot of other Mysteries. I'm waiting on her new book in October. I just subscribed to your channel Channel

    Can I ask about some books behind you? They are brown purple and blue and sandwiched between The Book of Dust and Storm of Locusts. What are they called, please? Have you spoken about them before on your channel?

    • @ToriMorrow
      @ToriMorrow  4 года назад +1

      That’s the His Dark Materials trilogy by Philip Pullman, and they’re in the 10th anniversary edition 😃 I mentioned the first book, The Golden Compass, a while ago (I forget the exact video) but I’ve never discussed the whole series!

    • @joreads8782
