@@jaimefok I have read Priory of the orange tree. It was a while ago so don't remember it super clearly but the feeling I had was somewhat underwhelmed. Interesting premise but took long to start up and collect all threads just to finish it off in like the last few chapters and having events go super quick all of a sudden, which I don't really like.
Happy birthday! Those are some great book picks. 👌🏻The Nightingale was one of my top reads from last year! I also loved A River Enchanted and A Study in Drowning. 😊

Oh, I’m excited for you to read Priory! I really enjoyed it, and it was my entry into fantasy as an adult (Harry Potter, Twilight, etc. as a kid). I enjoyed the prequel, A Day of Fallen Night, even more than Priory. I also have Bride, The Nightingale, The Only One Left, and the Alex Stern series on my TBR! But I also just bought the Poppy War and Shades of Magic trilogies. So many books, so little time! 😂

I’ve had the priory of the orange tree on my TBR for a long time because it has been so intimidating because it looks so big. I also choose books the same way that you do. I listen to what people feel about them and then I go and look at the cover and if it just feels right, I go for it. if I walk into a bookstore and I see a book I like then I’ll read the synopsis but if I hear about books that someone likes, then I’m more likely to read those. Also, HAPPY BIRTHDAY

Happy Birthday!🎂 Have you ever thought about starting a reading journal? I believe you can keep track of books read on Good Reads but a journal would be a physical book to look back on your thoughts on books you loved and books that you should have DNF but you pushed through lol.
