Glad to hear that Skyward turned back around for you with that finale, I need to get back to that series as well! And you've gotten me so excited to try that Veronica Speedwell series, it sounds so fun! Also, I know I probably shouldn't say this, but please do yourself a favour and listen to The Will of the Many screaming at you from your shelves... you won't be disappointed!! Happy reading 🥰

Oh yes I think you should read the Veronica Speedwell series!! And then you'll probably overtake me 😂 I will have to listen to it's siren call at some point

Loving your top and lipstick colour! I for once have read more books off my TBR than I’ve bought this month. Feeling very proud of myself! And for finally finishing Defiant - always feels so good to finish a series 😁

I need to get the 4th book! It has been such a fun series to read this year

Hi Abby! We are lucky in Australia for Juliet Marillier because there are the large floppy paperbacks of her books. Having said that, out of the copies I have some are matte and some are shiny. It feels like nothing will ever fully match haha. Great video :)

Oh those large floppy paperbacks sound dreamy!! I've got a couple of books with a mixture of matte and shiny...such a weird publishing decision!

Mass markets are the bane of my existence! Especially when the book is only available in mass market! 😂 Seems like a good start to the year and some interesting plans! ❤

Why would they only release in mass market! I feel like it's more of a US thing than a UK thing as most books here are in normal sized paperbacks

@@AbbySalter generally yes, though I can’t seem to get normal sized Malazan?

I'm absolutely terrible at continuing series so I always find these videos very impressive! I'm listening to the audiobook of the Trials of Empire at the moment and I like it so far although I have heard mixed things about it. I have the Daughter of the Forest and Malice on my shelf from your recommendations so there will soon be even more series I have started 😂

I hope you love Daughter of the Forest and Malice when you start them! Some of my faves!

I've been binging series and trying to be patient with series that aren't completed yet so I can binge them and don't forget important details. But I want the third Final Strife book to hurry up so I don't have to wait anymore. 😅

I've been trying too but it's so hard!! I know that book needs to release already!

I reread the first 2 empire of the wolf book before reading trial of the wolf and almost binged the series and I had so much fin and am hoping for more books in this world, pity it didn’t work out as well for you

I wish I'd had that experience with it!! 😭

Would you recommend dream pool or daughter of the forest as a starting point for me?

@AbbySalter

Oooh tough choice...maybe daughter of the forest as it can be read as a standalone so you can feel satisfied with it and only continue if you want to

I also didn’t expect to DNF Fireborne. I like the plot and the politics of it but the focus on the Romeo and Julietish teen romance was a bit much for me, particularly since those characters are the only POVs.

YES! I think I expected it to be more adult than it was and some of the themes definitely were but other aspects weren't

We need to chat about the rest of CC! I've finished it as well
