Video

Found the House Witch thanks to another video of yours and have to agree that the first book is super cozy. About to start the second book in a day or so.

Loved the deep dive and storytelling/writing technique discussion in this vid Mair!

I haven’t re-read Mistborn yet but I loved them!

I like your vibe 😂

"a little bit cozy, with a side of death" what a description! 😂

Love your videos! Do you read books or magazines on the toilet? In my opinion, it is the best place to read😅

'Entertaining as fucking fuck'. Sounds good!

Making no promises about what happens to Hulagu in book 3 😂😂😂

that Way of Kings edition is gorge. What one is it?

I really need to read Will of the Many and Dragon Rider!

I usually like historical fantasy, but I'd like if you stop making my tbr longer 🤣

I just got this in the mail a couple days ago

Marmite book… lol 🤣 love that expression

Solid recs. You’re still my favourite BookTuber. I’m reading and loving Liveships right now. You asked for a recommendation - Gormenghast Trilogy by Mervyn Peake. Starts with Titus Groan. Classic English Gothic fantasy. You’re welcome.

I've read 4 of these, which I think is good start

I just started powder mage on audio yesterday!

The only thing I know about Dungeon Crawler Carl is the talking cat, so if that's a spoiler they aren't doing a good job keeping it under wraps 😂

Oooh I haven’t heard of The Weavers of Alamaxa and it sounds awesome

Great video! How did you find In The Shadow Of Lightning btw?

Blimey Shadowfax is rather chatty

haha love this whole premise - i need to do this!

Echoes Saga I would really like to read, though I'm def not a prose snob! I'm happy to read very simple prose as long as the story is good.

Why am I just now realizing that Jonathan Strange and Piranesi are written by the same author?! Oof, if an author tracked me down and asked why I didn't give their book a higher rating, I wouldn't read from them again. I feel like I see that behavior more often in the indie space (though I know trad pub authors have done it too) which sadly makes me more hesitant to read indie books. I read To Sleep in a Sea of Stars and dnf'd it with about an hour left in the audiobook. The story was very repetitive and the characters are pretty cardboard

Okay so I’m hearing I’ve gotta organise a buddy read of Jonathan Strange

I loved Jonathan Strange and Mr Norrell. I heard about it on a podcast about Macs back when I cared about such things. The guy recommending it did so because of its length and he figured it was a good way to get good value out of Audible. I'd like to eyeball read it, especially if I had a copy like the one you have!

I also really want to read Hamnet! And also intimidated by Jonathan Strange. But there is this nice gentlemen in a hat somewhere online that really seems to like it😄

Gah the origami dragon is so cute!!

I still haven't read Ursula K LeGuin either 🙈

I havent been to a library in about a million years. I found bookstagram 4 years ago and now i am crumbling under the weight of my sprayed edged pretties 😍🤣

Haha this was fun to watch! I didn't expect you to get a library card at the start of the video, but I love it! I also love Libby for audiobooks

I love your sweater!

Earthsea is an interesting read for sure.

Rad haul. My number one BookTuber. Love this shit.

I'm loving the format and getting a glimpse of the horses ❤

I'm glad you liked it! Disappointing you didn't love it more, but I get what you mean about being in the mood for it

Ah the horses are gorgeous! You've read so many books in May 😲 I have Dance of Shadows on my tbr so I'm happy to see that you loved it! Well, now I need to read Dragons of Deepwood Fen so I can know when your favorite trope is!

Tainted Cup audio was good.

I really really love that you kept the book cover up for this vlog. Didn't know I'd be adding dragon books to my TBR but here we are!

New favorite channel ever. Subscribed and am about to watch every gd thing you say!

I wish i could focus on audiobooks, but sadly i cant. I can second the recs though! Cant wait for Book 3 in the Bloodsworn Saga this year :)

This looks like a great getaway!

This looks absolutely beautiful! I'm living vicariously through your video!

Thanks for the tag, but I honestly don't have answers. Things are good as they are so I wouldn't really wish for more, except perhaps a replacement outdoor seat for the one that got smashed up in the last storm and maybe one of those fancy HD lights from Serious Readers for indoors. And if I had a million quid, I'd travel with my Kindle and read on boats and planes and trains. And my fantasy library would be the same as what I have now but with more room. Maybe my wife's books in the loft? Ha ha.

Reading on horseback sounds great! Making writing and publishing more beneficial for everyone sounds great. I loved hearing all your answers!

Let's go! I have the arcs for The Gilded Crown, Sky on Fire, and A Sorceress Comes to Call that I need to read in June. Oh no to Some Desperate Glory! I haven't heard the negative reviews. I started and was liking it, but it was due at the library before I finished it. It's on my pile of shame that I need to return to

Our friend said Some Desperate Glory was like Azula in space, which made it sound badass

I meant at least you liked Dragons of Deepwood Fen! I reviewed this on my channel too. Loved it.

Long chapters? Count me out. I should give First Binding a shot, I got put off my the comparisons.

Im here for this. I have 2 on my Kindle at the moment 🤦🏾‍♀️

So fun to get glimpses of your work!
