    I watched this video this morning, then went to 1 used bookstore (where I didn't find anything I wanted to really take home with me after having just made a significantly large purchase at an online retailer)and a random little neighborhood thrift store to see what they had (a decent amount of books, about 8-9 full size shelves?). I was pleasantly surprised to find Blackmoore! I was super excited to be able to pick up a book the same day I first heard about it, and for less than $1! I will forever shop at thrift stores for my books, you just never know what you might find (plus, I love the appeal of going to Barnes & Noble and buying a bunch of new books, but the prices are a bit steep to be buying everything that looks good).

    @bookinklings 8 лет назад +1

    Congratulations! That sounds awesome! Blackmoore sounds really interesting. I read the Heroes of Olympus series and it was taken over my soul, I LOVED it! The humor the characters the mythology, it was incredible. ^^

  • @melissasteusloff1156
    @melissasteusloff1156 8 лет назад +2

    Blackmoore has been added to my TBR, thankyouverymuch. My favorite of the month was Carry On.
    Also, can't wait to dive into some Cinda Williams Chima. Would you recommend starting with the Heir Chronicles or the 7 Realms series?

  • @girlwiththeglass
    @girlwiththeglass 8 лет назад

    Honestly, the Notorious RBG was my favorite read this past month. Her life is inspiring, and reading about her civil rights cases in the 60s was really interesting. Also, the cover of that yoga book is sweeeettt.

  • @Reconciliation777
    @Reconciliation777 8 лет назад

    Yes, I like something with a spiritual journey. It does have a nice cover. Blackmore sounds interesting too. I like an easy read.

  • @shannon6009
    @shannon6009 8 лет назад +2

    My favourite read of the month was Birdsong by Sebastian Faulks, I love historical fiction novels and this is set during the First World War in the trenches (but the story is so much more than that) and it was so beautiful and harrowing - two things I love in a book haha! :)

  • @lumal06

    @DeeDeeCatMom 8 лет назад

    Hi Regan! I read two books this month, The Royal We, and The Secret History (by Donna Tartt). Very different books, although both about upper class society and college. The Royal We was a bit more chick lit like than I was used to, but I just flew through it since I love anything Royal and anything thinly veiled as a fanfic on real life :)
    The Secret History was a bit different. It's really a study of characters, and it was written beautifully. As always, I'm neither a polarised love it or hate it person, but rather an in betweener, a good read but not necessarily a re-read.

  • @AlliesBeautyTips
    @AlliesBeautyTips 8 лет назад +2

    i read 4 books this month, but lady midnight by cassandra claire was the best one
    also i read my first manga, called stargazing dog and I LOVED IT SO MUCH

  • @Ann86dk
    @Ann86dk 8 лет назад

    There have been 3 5 star reads for me this month. The first one was 'The Duke and I' by Julia Quinn, such a cute and humorous book. It's a Regency Romance book and I loved every second of it. The second one was 'Written in Red' by Anne Bishop. It was so amazing, I can't wait to get my hands on the next 3 books in the series that are currently out. Lastly I read Touch of Frost by Jennifer Estep. It's a Mythology series, and I loved it. I'm a sucker for the Mythology genre, and I enjoy Jennifer Estep's writing.

  • @emmaww9049
    @emmaww9049 8 лет назад

    My favorite book that I read this month was The Forbidden Wish by Jessica Khoury. It was an Aladdin retelling, told from the POV of the Jinni, who was a girl named Zahra. And it was so good, Zahra was such a great character! I bought Flamecaster this month though and I am so anticipating it. I've been seeing a lot of negative reviews of it, so the fact that you liked it so much gives me hope. I would love if you did a full length review of Flamecaster!

    I have two books this month that I absolutely LOVED! The first is absolutely no surprise to me, seeing as I loved all the books in the series so far inmensely: Harry Potter and the Half-blood prince. SO GOOD! Cried my eyes out. 5/5 stars obviously.
    The second was a bit more of a surprise for me, seeing as I don't normally love Contemporary/Romance. Everything, Everything by Nicola Yoon was such an surprisingly, awesome read! Best contemporary I've read this year by far! Loved it, 5/5 stars

  • @shelleylawrence8397
    @shelleylawrence8397 8 лет назад +5

    I haven't read The 7 Realms, and really hadn't planned on it (5 books!), but will this really mess me up for FlameCaster? I'm eager to read this one.

    • @catagello1981
      @catagello1981 8 лет назад +1

      I would read the Seven Realms first, there are references and things that happen that you may not 100% understand if you haven't read the original series. Honestly though it's amazing series and you'll just fly through them.

    • @catagello1981
      @catagello1981 8 лет назад +2

      Also it's only 4 books, The Demon King, The Exiled Queen, The Grey Wolf Throne and The Crimson Crown

    • @aziangurl723
      @aziangurl723 8 лет назад +1

      Something that happens in the beginning of the book will ruin The Seven Realms for you, so I highly suggest you start with Seven Realms.

  • @ZacharyFlye
    @ZacharyFlye 8 лет назад

    So I watched this video to get a better view of your perspective on Flamecaster. I just finished the Crimson Crown and after reading the synopsis for Flamecaster I was a bit scared to continue. I'm still a bit hesitant, but I think I'll just read another book before diving into this world again and give a bit of distance between the two books.

  • @rachelhesketh94
    @rachelhesketh94 8 лет назад +1

    Solution to the not knowing what to do after re-reading Harry Potter....start again from the beginning! Honestly Regan I have lost count how many times I have re-read Harry Potter continuously this past year and a half...(especially with the audiobooks-it's so easy to just finish Deathly Hallows and be like 'I have no idea what to listen to next...meh, I'll listen to Philosopher's Stone again'...then 7 books later and I'm back at the same problem...)

    @SabinesBookNook 8 лет назад

    I read The Warrior Heir by CWC, but I really didn't enjoy it. It was very slow paced and the characters were very flat to me. So right now I'm kind of afraid to pick up the Seven Realms series. Do you think I should be afraid or is it way better?
    Loved the video btw :D

    • @laurenishere7720
      @laurenishere7720 8 лет назад

      The warrior heir does take a long time to get started but the seven realms series is much more fast paced, though there is a lot of world building in the first book that leads to the action in the second.

    • @SabinesBookNook
      @SabinesBookNook 8 лет назад

      +Lauren Elberfeld thanks! I just don't want to give up on CWC because I hear so many great things about her books 😁😊

    • @novelinsights3038
      @novelinsights3038 8 лет назад

      +Sabine's Book Nook I actually just started The Heir Chronicles last month, myself. I've only read the Warrior Heir and the Wizard Heir of her books, so far, so I can't really speak for the Seven Realms series, but I will say that the Wizard Heir grabbed me a lot more than the Warrior Heir, especially in the first half of the book. I didn't really have much issue with the characters in either of the books (aside from the fact they didn't seem to ask nearly enough questions); my issue was more the sloppy writing, but I had to give her a bit of a pass since it was her debut.

    • @Ckdude100
      @Ckdude100 8 лет назад

      The heir series definitely isn't as good as the seven realms series. The seven realms series was and still is amazing. The first book is a bit of a grind, but it gets great by the last third, and every book from there is amazing. (The gray wolf throne is a bit of a grind for the first 50 pages, was great after)
