🎄 The plot thickens! Looks like Alison unhauled a book she got signed by the author, a double win for you!
That Susan fletcher book is signed by the author 😂 I double checked and that is Susan Fletcher's autograph and the note is the same as other signed versions of that book 😊
I totally understand cancelling Locked Library because I have done the same but I will say that they did have a caveat about the exclusivity of the books. I think it was something along the lines of other book boxes already had a contract or something with certain books already in place that they wanted to use, I think it's some point in 2024 where true exclusivity starts ☺
Don't mind me, I'm just over here adding books to my TBR.
Ooooh the 10th anniversary edition of TBS is soooo good! Hope you'll love it!
In Memoriam is set in WWI, actually!
I had the same reservations as you going into it but got it anyway because it was one of those books I saw and simply thought "I should read this". And my instinct didn't lead me astray, I loved it (and cried for about half of it, definitely make sure you're in a good mental space for this one, it doesn't hold back on the war stuff).
Ooh how funny, I loved House of Glass by Susan Fletcher and didn’t know she had others, so now I’m going to track down the one you loved. Thank you!
I also quit my locked tomb subscription but the timing worked out that I got the October box which was an anthology about witches which I loved (the look of, saving it for next October to read). I read my backlist of them and there were just too many duds to justify keeping it though I will concede they were the prettiest of all the subscriptions I had.
The bookseller that runs my book club keeps trying to get us to pick in memoriam but hasn’t been successful so far 🙈
I have the Lydia Bennet book as well-it sounds so good!
24:33 I’ve just DNF’d Midnight Is The Darkest Hour, it wasn’t going anywhere, I do not recommend 😅
I am so happy that you are enjoying the horror subscription
That's the same edition of Rebecca as mine!! It was the first one I really loved too ❤❤🦌🎅
🎄I have such a love/hate relationship with book boxes...I've been dithering about OwlCrate for ages now but they keep pulling me back in with their special editions. It has always been YA, but it used to be a solid mix of contemporary books and I found a bunch of favorites through them. But it has been exclusively YA fantasy for a couple years now and I can't remember the last one I enjoyed. Which is a pity because the items in the box were generally pretty good. So now every month I have to skip my renewal so I can keep my subscription for the sake of getting my hands on special editions of books I already love.
I think I just can't do fantasy boxes, because apparently I've gotten picky as an aging millennial.
I've only read in my dreams by Ashley winstead, but I want to try Midnight. The Last housewife scares the crap out of my because its so dark. Its her darkest.
This was such a fun video! I still haven’t read Rebecca but I’m hoping that 2024 will be the year that I do🤞🎄
Lydia Bennet is on my tbr 🔥🧙🏻♀️✨
Last to Leave The Room was my favourite of 2023!🎄
House of Glass sounds perfect for me, gotta jot that one down!
OMG we have the exact same feeling about queer literary books often ending badly. It's one of the whole reasons why my LGBTQ+ book clubs reads only Fantasy/Horror/Sci--Fi where all the other book clubs tend to do literary because I and my members just don't want to read depressing books, we want some gay joy! I am intrigued by In Memoriam though now not gonna lie...
Can't wait to read Map of the Other Worlds. I have The Pomegranate Gate too.
🎅⛄Happy New Year 🎉🎇 - I recently read 'Witch Light' (sometimes called 'Corrag') by Susan Fletcher and love love loved it - have added other of her books to my library list - thank you for the recommendations 🎄
Some great sounding books!🎄
