Bookaholic Banter haha I’m there. We load up on books and have a ton in our library. Also during Xmas season I buy 15+ books on kindle because they’re are super cheap so it holds me over for a while. Plus kindle unlimited deals. Too many to do.

the way that you talk about books makes me want to read every single one of them even if i have little to no interest in that particular genre. i applaud you.

A historical fiction novel that inspires one to persevere and get past one's weaknesses is the perfect thing to read under the current circumstances! (All the light we cannot see) I would also recommend The Kite Runner by Khaled hosseini if you wanna get all emotional in this dark time😍😍😍

Camus' The Plague is perfect for right now, would be good in that "historical" fiction category. Basically looks at an Algerian city quarantined during an imagined plague. Camus being an optimist shows the hardship but how solidarity can emerge during that hardship.

I’m currently reading City of Dreaming Books so I was super happy to see it mentioned here!! It really is an amazing story.

I was so happy to see the notification for this video! I love your recommendations 😊 I couldn't agree more for huge fantasy books, Words Of Radiance has been on my tbr for incredibly long and I've finally started it this week 😄

Thank you for this video! I am so excited to participate in the readathon this weekend! I haven't filmed in MONTHS and this is the perfect way to vlog!! I loved the Seven Realms series and am currently on Book 2 Shadowcaster and I am really enjoying it so far!!

If you’re a Sanderson fan, and you love something whimsical, if you haven’t read them yet, read his Alcatraz series. They are SO good!

I LOVE Walter Moers books! They are so underrated! If you like City of Dreaming Books, you should check out some of his other titles too like The 13 and 1/2 Lives of Captain Bluebear, Rumo and His Miraculous Adventures, and The Alchemaster's Apprentice!

I'm so happy to see you recommand City of Dreaming Books. I rarely see Moers recommmanded outside of germany and City of Dreaming Books is my favorite of his. It's one of my absolute favorites so I'm super happy to see it here!!

A good fantasy series that I rarely see being recommended is the Spook's Apprentice by Joseph Delaney . If you are a fan of witches, goblins, ghosts and all that good stuff you'll absolutely love it !

Thanks for making this video. I, too, suffer from anxiety, and this crisis has aggravated it immensely. Your video helped distract me and inspired me to use this nervous energy to help me get through my TBR. Stay safe.

For the Claire North books, I REALLY recommend the audiobooks! They are terrific! Especially the Harry August one!

You’ve inspired me to add Claire North to my wish list as I’m currently on a book buying ban. Thanks for the recs. Stay healthy & safe.

Yey Walter Moers! I've never seen the English version of the city of dreaming books, it's so cool that you have read it :)

I’ve not read a fantasy book yet in my 60+ years. Which do you recommend as a first read. I enjoy your reviews, you are adorable to watch and listen to. 😊. Happy reading.

@@KyndleWylde They all take place in this fictional world called Zamonia, but you can definitely read them as stand alone books. There is a second part to City of dreaming books (labyrinth of dreaming books or something), but if I remember correctly it wasn't as good as the first and the first has a finished story anyways. Some of the characters make cameo appearances in other books, but nothing major, only a quick mentioning.

My uni just switched to internet based lectures so great timing with the book recs, it's scary how global corona is, I live in sweden and i'm experiencing the same things you guys are experiencing over in the US. On the topic of the next stromlight archive book coming out later this year - would you consider doing a spoilery reading vlog like you did with the final Throne of Glass book? I get that a spoilery vlog probably gets less views than a non-spoiler one, but it would be so interesting hearing your thoughts along the way and being able to have a spoiler filled discussion in the comment section!

it is cute looking at covers of books from abroad, i realise they are so different one from another.. and u know in Rissia there are just several series, they are either with grey paper or cost >2 times more! but they are cheap here :)

I read Name of the Wind and Way of Kings last year because of you..... and they became my favorite books of ALL time.

If you like historical fiction, this trilogy is really good. It is called the seeds of America trilogy, the first book is chains! It is about slavery!

I'm happy you managed to celebrate your brother's wedding! A big hug from quarantined italy 💓

Agree Nevermoor is wonderful series to read🙂

so great 🥺 thank you for being so positive during this time

First, I am so happy you enjoyed Devil and the White City. I loved that book when I read it in college a few years back and it's so cool that one of my favorite BookTubers enjoyed it too. :) A trilogy I recommend if you want an entertaining read that's dark but also has some of the more classic YA tropes is The Madman's Daughter trilogy by Megan Shepherd. The trilogy actually has low-key Fullmetal Alchemist vibes for me even though it is a historical fiction mostly. The main character is really compelling. The side characters are interesting. And it's just a really solid trilogy. The third book is not as great as the first two books, but all of them are fast enough reads that the slight storytelling dip in the third book isn't too much of an issue. And another book I read that I found out about and loved thanks to this channel was An Enchantment of Ravens by Margaret Rogerson. Perfect escapism. Literally read it in a day. It's perfect for people who are still a little bit intimidated by larger books. It's cute and dare I say...enchanting. Anyway, thank you for all the lovely recommendations, Regan! :) Keep being fabulous! God bless you and Clay. :)

Hi Regan, I hope you are safe and well. Thanks for these recommendations. Can't wait to read them! :)

I just finished Way of Kings and I plan on reading the rest of them while I have the chance. I want to read them all before the new one comes out! I also picked up the Black Prism to read soon.

You should host a quarantine readathon! I think it’d be nice to have a day of reading since I can’t go anywhere.

Im reading The Way of Kings right now. Its been on my TBR for over a year and I tried to listen to the audiobook way back then and couldnt do it. Reading it physically is much better but it is one hunka book. Its a biiiig boy. Taking me weeks to get through it.

Ooooo will have to take a look at some of these books! I’ve never really completed a fantasy series, will have to try it

Can you do a middle grade recondition video please!!😁😁Also, stay safe, it’s really dangerous in NY right now!

I’m literally out of school for a month so this video was very much needed!

Just finished A Closed and Common Orbit by Becky Chambers. Wow! It's technically book two of the Wayfarers series, but could easily be read as a stand alone. It is science fiction and an amazing look at what humanity and identity mean. This is the best book I've read so far this year.

I’ve really been wanting to read the nightingale and all the lights we cannot see for so long but i just never had a chance to pick it up yet. It sounds sooo good though.

Currently on book 2 of Stormlight!

Hope you, Clay and Matilda are doing well

Being an author, I'm getting a ton of work done at him. The isolation keeps me level anyway. Boy, that's a small place. At any rate, I like your recommendations.
