I’ve been meaning to read The Sword of Kaigen by ML Wang for ages now

I’ve never read Our Missing Hearts by Celeste Ng (and probably won’t, I’m not usually a fan of dystopian stuff), but I greatly enjoyed Ng’s other novels (Everything I Never Told You is what got me back into reading) so I feel confident in her writing abilities and would recommend it if you enjoy dystopian.

How Good It Is I have No Fear of Dying by Lara Marlowe. It’s based on interviews with a Ukrainian frontline commander who lost her father when he self-immolated during the Maidan revolution and took his sacrifice as inspiration. Can’t wait to get my copy.

I love the limited TV series. Heard it’s true to the book.

Cat’s Eye by Margaret Atwood. I found a perfectly preserved first edition of it in a free book box after I fed a black stray cat at the local cemetery.

Instance of Fingerpost. Its historian Tom Holland’s favourite historical fiction and it’s been on my ‘to read list’ since forever but I’ve never actually got round to reading it.

1491 – haven’t read it yet but by all accounts a very interesting take on pre colonial life

The Anti-Ableist Manifesto: Smashing Stereotypes, Forging Change, and Building a Disability-Inclusive World by Tiffany Yu has been recommended to me to read by a lot of people I know. I’ve got it on my TBR, just haven’t had the right mood to read it yet.

Why? What is the point of recommending a book you haven’t read yourself?

Covenant of Water, Verghese. I loved Cutting for Stone, I have read it twice. I hear that CoW is just as good.

I am very hyped to read Six of Crows and Crooked Kingdom.
I’ve heard only high praise for it from my sister who’s opinion I respect a lot and she recommended it as my first foray into fantasy after many years of not reading much of anything.
Go for that duology. It needs only the base understanding of what the Grisha verse is about.
