    Ahhh of all these books the ones I've read are also some of my favorites, which obviously means I need to read all the rest! I want to read more adult books next year too, so I think I need that Jim Butcher series in my life ASAP!

    • @PeruseProject
      @PeruseProject  10 лет назад +1

      My life would be complete if you read that Jim Butcher series. js.

    Thanks for making a Top 13 that was pretty well-rounded. There were a few I've read, ones I've heard of and want to read, and ones I knew nothing about. You gave really great little summaries of each, too. Now I want em all!

    I've never really felt a great desire to read the Shatter Me series, but knowing you loved it so much this year has made me re-think that. Perhaps I'll give it a go this year. Also, I'm currently reading The Final Empire and kajehfiauewfnjaklsjdfoi. SO GOOD.

  • @ErinKwed

    @BubbleyBathtub 10 лет назад

    I don't know if you're going to read this, but I'm going to tell you anyway.
    I just LOVE how red your face turned when you're excited. It actually tells me a lot about how much you love each of the books. You don't have to worry about not knowing to describe how good they are, your face tells it all. And plus, you're adorable in red :)

  • @ACommonSpring
    @ACommonSpring 10 лет назад +1

    i'm so glad to see Mistborn on there. goddammit that series makes me want to scream it's so bloody good. the third book makes the first two, which were bloody brilliant, look like slop, too. just gets better and better. no other book has ever been that tidy. things said on practically the first page end up circling to the last pages of the 3rd book. insanely detailed. and the BATTLE SCENES. i HATE battle scenes but those one are damn near stereo. totallly outclasses everything in the genre i've read.

  • @stephisip
    @stephisip 10 лет назад

    Thank you!!! I'm going to try reading all the books you listed in the video. CAN'T WAIT

  • @MagicOfBooks

  • @Esty777
    @Esty777 10 лет назад +5

    Can't wait to see your list for 2014, we have similar book taste!!!

  • @TheShadoWings
    @TheShadoWings 10 лет назад

    Omg, Throne of Glass is going to be 6 books? I had no idea! I'm so excited! I've read the first two, absolutely fell in love with the protagonist and Chaol Westfall - both great characters. And just the writing, in general, was fantastic. Definitely my favourite books of 2013 considering I came across Throne of Glass by total accident.

    I own most of your top 13 and you're making me really want to read them - like now! :) I read 177 books in 2013 and the Mistborn Series and Steelheart by Brandon Sanderson are definitely in my top 13. He is a fantastic author and his magic systems are unique and crazy!

  • @kimberleyreads2792
    @kimberleyreads2792 10 лет назад

    Number one, you look amazing! Love your freckles & lipstick. Beautiful. Two, I owe you my entire YEAR for shinning the light on The Giver quartet. I can't get over the fact that it has been way over a decade since it was my favorite book, and I am just now finding out it is not a stand-alone all thanks to YOU! I now have the entire quartet thanks to my bday & Christmas being so close together :D Three... I love your videos. Really. You are so eloquent with your descriptions, and you don't over-do it with too much nonsense like some booktubers. I love your taste and everything as well! Hope this comment helped you smile, and have a wonderful new year! Feel free to come by and check out my channel if you ever have time.

  • @soanthegreat
    @soanthegreat 10 лет назад +1

    @mlprainbowdash1 10 лет назад

    I just started reading for fun this year and I'm so glad I did! My favorite book this year was the fault in our stars, it didn't come out this year but I read it this year it was so good. Reading has done so much for me and I'm so ready to read a ton of books in 2014. :)

  • @ungar5
    @ungar5 10 лет назад

    Very similar to my list... Had I made one. Mistborn is my all time favorite series. I picked up Furies of Caulderon after you talked about it. The first one was just ok, but I trusted you and continued to Academ's Fury. It was... Lets just say that now I have all the rest of the series sitting on my ״Read Me Nooow!!" shelf. So, I for one, am really happy you joined booktube.

  • @veeramakela4890
    @veeramakela4890 10 лет назад +2

    If you liked Mistborn, might I suggest The Lies of Locke Lamora by Scott Lynch? It's even MORE Ocean's 11-meets-fantasy. It's brilliant!

  • @nokiddingbrainless
    @nokiddingbrainless 10 лет назад

    I NEED TO READ ALL OF THESE! I really want to get into adult fantasy but I find the genre so intimidating because pretty much all of the books are gigantic and a lot of them sound really bad. I'm very grateful for you picking out the gems for us!

  • @leannb2513
    @leannb2513 10 лет назад +1

    I love Throne of Glass too!!!! Finally found a booktuber who has read it!!! yes!!!! And I totally agree that Celaena is such a kick ass female character and that is one of the reasons I love this series soooo much!!!

  • @bettyreads222
    @bettyreads222 10 лет назад

    I shall definitely have to finally give Percy & TID series a try. Furies & Final Empire sound amazing; on the tbr they go since I have been trying to read more sci fi & fantasy! Totally agree with you on More Than This. I read the Chaos Walking trilogy as well this year, it feels like forever ago. I totally agree with you about the Mayor. He is just deliciously evil. I love amazing villains.

    @LadyMcHeth 10 лет назад

    I'm glad you said the next book in Throne of Glass is better. I was a bit disappointed with Throne of Glass but since I bought the first two ebooks (99c each thank you very much Amazon) and because you said it gets better I will give the second one a shot.

  • @anushabansal8436
    @anushabansal8436 10 лет назад

    When you were describing The Mistborn series, I stared off and it sounded almost exactly how I would describe Steelheart lol (minus the magic system, of course). So that was creepy haha.
