Lots of new books to add to my never ending TBR. That’s a good thing 😁

I just finished Artemis by Andy Weir and was looking to read another book set on Luna. Guess what?! Luna New Moon just got added to my TBR. Thank you for the recommendation!

Awesome. I only know Abercrombie. :/
Abercrombie is still on the need-to-check-out list; same with Sanderson (Mistborn). I do not own these books yet.
I compared our books on goodreads. There were no big changes in the past years though. We both have "Opfermond" and "Der Kinderdieb" on our to-read list.
"Opfermond" belongs to my ancient-tbr-list, it is so sad. My plan is to read it this year for sure.

Absolute Highlights were kinda rare in the most recent years. 2020-2022 I had 0 five-star books. D:
Sure some 4 stars and there you could often argue if 4 or 5 stars are right but yeah...
Still some where fun or had impressive parts. Fantasywise I liked Nina Blazon (I had high expectations, so some were disappoining on the one hand, but on the other hand some scenes were magnificent!) and I also had quite some fun time with the Grisha trilogy (in my head it was like a Final Fantasy game).

In 2023 my greatest reading time I had for example with The Hobbit and the original story of Peter Pan.
Currentling I am reading Lord of the Rings. I read it in English, it will take a good amount of time to finish.

I could nearly do the same video since I have been absent too for a while and also only do videos once in a while nowadays.
Just checked, I would also start with 2018 till 2022. About 2023 I have already talked about the first half of the year 2023, second half is still missing.
You were not really gone for me since I still had you on goodreads. :)

Do you think the Ruin of kings would work as an audiobook? I love to listen but very few fantasy novels work as audiobooks. Probably due to a large cast of characters with very unusual names 🤦🏼‍♀️
