A fellow summer dreader! Thank goodness. I always feel like I’m the only one hating on summer and its heat, bugs etc. I always long for cooler weather. Also I am enjoying your channel very much. Thank you for doing all these videos!
These Burning Stars and Amina El-Sirafi are beyond excellent!!! 👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾 If you want an adventure, read Amina in front of a mist fan and you will feel as though you are riding on the seas with her and her crew. 🤣
I read These burning stars after I saw your fav books of 2023 video, and it really blew me away. I still can't stop thinking about how good that book is. Afterwards I got adventures of amina al sirafi, children of time and the grace of kings lol. After that book I definitely trust your recommendations;) ps. I've had the 12 kings of... for awhile and i sorta dnf it (barely gave it chance tbh)but i'll give it another try!
5:41 Yessssss!!! This is probably one of my most favorite fantasy series. Book two is absolutely amazing!! I am so glad to see more people reading this series. I wish it was more hyped up!
I knew you'd mention these burning stars!! i love the way you describe the plots, makes me want to immediately start so many of these 😂 I feel like you may enjoy the blood of the lion by CD McKenna (Indie book, one of my top fave epic fantasies ive read this year)
I’ve read all but twelve kings but it’s on my tbr! and stardust grail but I’ve only heard good things! And the last one but cozy mystery isn’t normally my thing!
Yesss I love Amina Al-Sarafi!! I've been thinking of reading Shannon's other books while wait for the sequal to come out. Also if Iremember right, at the end of the audiobook they did say that book 2 would come in 2025
Tao is insufferable but I love that series 😂 You are definitely making me think I could read a fantasy in the summer. These burning stars has been looking at me on my shelves for awhile.
I just bought These Burning Stars for my Kindle. I noticed that your recommendations are often of books I’ve loved in the pas, like The Will of the Many. By the way, have you read Brian McClellan’s, “In the Shadow of Lightning”? That’s been my book of the year so far and is amazing. Full of living breathing characters that you care about and grow to love, a mystery that grips you, wonderful world building and an incredible rollercoaster of a plot that makes it unputdownable. James Islington’s three recommendations on Fantasic Fiction are: The Silverblood Promise, The Trials of Empire, and In the Shadow of Lightening and the latter is in the same league as the other books.
I loved Amina al-Sirafi! I want to request all of your other recommendations, but my library site is currently down😢. I need great reads to keep me company while I hide from bugs, heat, and direct sunlight😅
Great video. I read the Adventures of Amina Al-Sirafi - great read. Looking forward to reading These Burning Stars & The Mimicking of Unknown Success. I'm also looking forward to reading The Measure by Nikki Erlick and Binti: Home by Nnedi Okorafor
@@ternegf oh nice! I love getting "lost" in a series.. my favorite way to read a series is to binge-read them all (for completed series anyway) .. is it a completed series now at 6 books?
I loved "The Mimicking..." and These Burning Stars and I have The Burning series on my TBR. I almost picked up The Silverblood Promise" but I'm trying to refrain from starting too many new fantasy series, especially until I finished The Wheel of Time.
I read These Burning Stars at your recommendation and I loved it. You’re one of the few book reviewers I will actually give their recommendations a shot. I added all these to be TBR. 🫣🥰

These all sound great! I have The Grace of Kings on my shelves that I have yet to pick up, maybe soon will be the time for it!
I love when Raksh and Amina interact
Same, their insults/banter is top tier 🤣
Silverblood Promise sounds right up my alley.
I really hope we get book 3 of The Burning , and yes Tao is flawed but damn those fight scenes!

Welp now I’m devastated 😭

And Wayward Pines and Good Behaviour, based on the Letty Dobesh books.
Is it just me or did The Stardust Grail end rather abruptly?
