I must say, your're the first person in my 33 year life that knew the book "The phantom of the opera" but never heard of the Musical first. That is an accomplishment, I must say 😂
@Trinity M I’m sorry you didn’t enjoy it. I just thought it was different than some of their other music and I loved seeing something different. Also the visuals and whole video I just loved
@Trinity M Speaking of nerds in high school, you wouldn't, by any chance, know Patti Smith's "We Were Kids"? She tells of the early days of her career at Max's Kansas City (a notorious punk bar) as if it were the first place where she and her friends got to be the cool kids in the lunch room.
Robin Hobb should hire you to do press for her books. 👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾 Damn, you make me want to read them and high fantasy is not my genre! Definitely had fun with you and Kayla discussing The House Across the Lake. Wonder what the hell he'll have coming out next. 👀
I dnfed the assassins apprentice by robin hobb because i thought it was sooo slow anyone knows if all her books are like that or if i should try another series of hers ?
i would say robin hobb's writing style is generally quite slow but i find that the characters are so complex and captiving that i don't mind the slower plot. However, i did find that the liveship traders trilogy is more fast paced due to its third person perspective and epic storyline, so maybe try that series! hope that was helpful :)
hmmm her books are really heavy with characterization so if that isn't something you like to read in books (esp with slow writing and story in general) i would say maybe if by the first book you're not feeling it, then maybe it isn't for you :/
I’m so happy you are enjoying Hobb. Seriously my favorite characters and world. I’ve read them multiple times and will read them again. Ugh, my god, so beautiful. I know people get annoyed with Fitz, but that’s kind of why I adore his dumb ass.
ahhh i'm so glad you loved the tawny man trilogy but if you think this is the best fantasy trilogy ever i cant wait to see your reaction to the fitz and the fool trilogy!!! p.s i love your videos sm :)
I've just read fools errand and OH MY GODD it was sooo goooodd!!!!! But that ONE scene had me sobbing 😭😭😭if the fool and Fitz do not get together by the end of the series I'm suing!!
You didn't know Phantom is a musical?! I thought people only read the book because of the musical -- I did 🤣 Chainsaw Man starts in October in Japan! So sooooon. I hesitantly started Royal Assassin this week and just as I feared it's so slow... it makes me feel bad cos all of booktube praises Hobb and her books and I'm just like "why is she dragging out the parts that aren't interesting and skipping the parts that have potential" I swear, I'm 20% into RA and I'm only here cos of the Fool, he's literally the only person I care about and want to know about.
OMGGG hmmm maybe you might like the ship of magic then because it has more characters and its third person buuuuuuuttt i would say if you don't like slow writing and heavy characertization then maybe it won't do to read them all because it's definitely a slow burner for sure but glad you gave it a chance!!!
Seriously there is always that one book that leaves you insulted about even hanging read it and you will remember it forever. I threw my worse book across the room and didn’t even finish it I was so mad 😂😂
How do you read so much? With Netflix, work, and life admin, I feel like I can't find the time to read anything even though I have so many books in my TBR
Give yourself like 30-60 minutes a day just reading. Make 👏 time for it somehow! That or listen to audiobooks on 1.5 speed during commutes or exercise lol
How I love you Elias and your impeccable taste in books. HOWEVER, I would like to argue that the Lumatere chronicles by the godess Melina Marchetta and the Queens Theif series by Megan Whalen Turner could rival Hobbs's work any time, fIgHt me...I dare you! Ehm read them pretty please with sugar on top and do a review if you have time I would self-combust with joy! jdfbksbdfj Stay awesome
@@ellias Omigosh yeeees!!! Hopefully, you'll thank me :3 Otherwise I'll willingly throw my heart to the wolves, for the betrayal and falsehood of my recommendations. Haha no but seriously I hope you give both series a go when you have time, if you enjoy Hobb both Marchetta and Turner have amazing character arcs, slowly unfolding plots and twists that will blow your mind. And the feels. The FEELS.
I must say, your're the first person in my 33 year life that knew the book "The phantom of the opera" but never heard of the Musical first. That is an accomplishment, I must say 😂
i didn't even know what hamilton was until a couple years ago haha
@@ellias yeah same 😂
100% here for the blackpink tee
PINK VENOMMMMM
been in a reading slump for a few weeks now but your excitement from some of these books is literally fuelling me!!
this is what we like to hear!
I’m so here for the blackpink tee! I hope you loved Pink Venom! 🖤💗
@Trinity M I’m sorry you didn’t enjoy it. I just thought it was different than some of their other music and I loved seeing something different. Also the visuals and whole video I just loved
it was my least fav comeback of theirs but im excited for the title comeback in september!!!
Having trouble accepting there was someone who didn't know Phantom was a big hit musical, but obviously I'm even older than I thought/feared. 😯😯
same! :)
in my defense i was a sheltered homeschooled raised in a conservative asian household sooooo 😅

I don’t think so 😂 I’m 19 and a lot of my friends also know the musical

Robin Hobb should hire you to do press for her books. 👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾 Damn, you make me want to read them and high fantasy is not my genre!
Definitely had fun with you and Kayla discussing The House Across the Lake. Wonder what the hell he'll have coming out next. 👀

I'm reading it at the moment and it is slow but what's happening around the character is quite interesting and has good points of development.
I'm really struggling with book two for this reason so....
hmmm her books are really heavy with characterization so if that isn't something you like to read in books (esp with slow writing and story in general) i would say maybe if by the first book you're not feeling it, then maybe it isn't for you :/

multiple!! damnn that's amazing. also love to hate and love fitz lol
I had no idea that Robin Hobb's books were sets of trilogies set in the same universe! That's so cool! Will have to check it out. 💜
yep 16 books total; 4 trilogies and 1 quartet.
ahhh i'm so glad you loved the tawny man trilogy but if you think this is the best fantasy trilogy ever i cant wait to see your reaction to the fitz and the fool trilogy!!! p.s i love your videos sm :)
HAHA TRULY and thank you!!
Loved the video!

I've just read fools errand and OH MY GODD it was sooo goooodd!!!!! But that ONE scene had me sobbing 😭😭😭if the fool and Fitz do not get together by the end of the series I'm suing!!
YES CHAD WE LOVE TO SEE IT!!!!
You didn't know Phantom is a musical?! I thought people only read the book because of the musical -- I did 🤣
Chainsaw Man starts in October in Japan! So sooooon.
I hesitantly started Royal Assassin this week and just as I feared it's so slow... it makes me feel bad cos all of booktube praises Hobb and her books and I'm just like "why is she dragging out the parts that aren't interesting and skipping the parts that have potential" I swear, I'm 20% into RA and I'm only here cos of the Fool, he's literally the only person I care about and want to know about.

omg what was it
How do you read so much? With Netflix, work, and life admin, I feel like I can't find the time to read anything even though I have so many books in my TBR
Give yourself like 30-60 minutes a day just reading. Make 👏 time for it somehow! That or listen to audiobooks on 1.5 speed during commutes or exercise lol
everytime you pick up your phone to kill time/zone out/ check social media, read a little instead
i do this for a living so i kind of have to haha
@@ellias that makes sense! I used to read so much when I didn't have Netflix/social media
Now I'm kinda missing the unbuttoned shirt 🤧
Hey, have you read the twisted series by Ana Huang? If not, please give the series a chance.
i have not!
WOW... this man is going to spear my heart... THRILLERS and now MANGAS ? 😳
somebody better snatch me up!!!
How I love you Elias and your impeccable taste in books. HOWEVER, I would like to argue that the Lumatere chronicles by the godess Melina Marchetta and the Queens Theif series by Megan Whalen Turner could rival Hobbs's work any time, fIgHt me...I dare you! Ehm read them pretty please with sugar on top and do a review if you have time I would self-combust with joy! jdfbksbdfj Stay awesome
Ok now I gotta see what the hype is. Looking at you if this goes wrong!!! 😠
@@ellias Omigosh yeeees!!! Hopefully, you'll thank me :3 Otherwise I'll willingly throw my heart to the wolves, for the betrayal and falsehood of my recommendations. Haha no but seriously I hope you give both series a go when you have time, if you enjoy Hobb both Marchetta and Turner have amazing character arcs, slowly unfolding plots and twists that will blow your mind.

I felt the same about Phantom of the Opera 😶
oop!!!
I CANT WAIT TO READ EVERYTHING BY ROBIN HOBB! STOP IT!!!!!
DO IT!! 10+ years boost of serotonin!!
Not me hearing “now let’s talk about vodka” instead of MAGNA😩
LMAO YES LET'S TALK ABOUT VODKA
Robin Hobb is the absolute QUEEN of fantasy. Wait until you get to the last trilogy.
she is the KING AND QUEEN. no one does it like her. on one!!
So... the Late Night Book Club picks bad books on purpose?
“Sit back and-stress or relax, up to you” 😂🫢
yesss
