OMG HEIR BY SABAA IS ON MY TBR TOO literally when we have the same taste in fantasy I LOOOVEEE. tell me why no one i know has read the entirety of the ember in the ashes fucking underrated ya fantasy fr.

Would love a video looking back on your monthly TBRs to see what you ended up reading

Hild was amazing, I really enjoyed it and I hope you get around to it soon! It was one of those books that got me back into/obsessed with reading. It has the level of character development/complexity that I love where the description of Hild’s interior dialogue is perfectly balanced with the development of the plot/politics while also being set in a super vibey/scenic time period.

I told myself that, other than preorders, I wasn't going to buy more physical books until I had made a dent in my Kindle tbr. But that didn't happen lol, so now I have new physical books, plus preorders that come out this month and next. So, my priorities are: Husky & His White Cat Shizun vol 7 (new release), Disabled Tyrant's Beloved Pet Fish vol 3, Case Files of Jeweler Richard vol 9, Sword of the Demon Hunter vol 1-7, Japan Emerging, Remnants of Filth vol 5, The Lost Story, and, if I can get to it, Namaah's Kiss. On my kindle TBR: A Bloom in Winter, the Beloved, SOS Hotel: Final Resting Place, and Scripting Suicide in Japan.

I loved The Thirteenth Child. Read it nonstop and I hope you love it too.

[catsandbats]

I love Erin A Craig's books and I picked The Thirteenth Child as well. It should be coming in the next day or two and I'm so excited. I contemplated also getting The Most Wonderful Crime, but decided it wasn't something I absolutely needed to own. Holiday Romance sounds fun.

I just finished A Little Hatred TODAY and omg it was the best one yet. I think you’re gonna love it!!!

[riankoch]

I didn’t have the time to do my Stormlight reread so I’m gonna have to delay Wind and Truth until next year 😭 in good news it means I’ve got plenty of time to take really good notes.

Also I do agree, read Fugitive Telemetry first. Network Effect and System Collapse are both following the same plot line and it might feel disjointed to read FT in the middle.

Otherwise my priorities for the end of the year are Blood Over Bright Haven, a reread of Area X to then read Absolution, and Empire of Silence.

Sanderson never fails to deliver a gripping story with intricate characters and rich worldbuilding. I’d love to hear your thoughts once you dive into Wind and Truth!

[certain.bookish.things]

I read the second Catherine Walsh holiday romance and it was sooo good. I definitely need to double back and read the first one ❤

[bettyreads]

Ooh hadnt heard of Heir! I went through all my books on monday and made a tbr pile, we got thiss! 🎉

[gemmab]

While totally appreciating that you need to get to Wind and Truth, and your bookclub picks, and your Christmas romance, I would definitely recommend not leaving it too long before The Book that Broke the World. I only had about a two-month gap between books 1 and 2, and I was already starting to forget plot details by the time I picked book 2 up! The refresher at the beginning of it helped, but not completely! Although I'll definitely be forgetting things again while waiting for book 3... 🤷‍♀🤣

[LibrariesandLattes]

So many good ones here!! Can’t wait for Wind and Truth, although I’m still working through Rhythm of War so unfortunately I won’t be getting to book 5 right away, haha. I have so many priority reads that I just won’t be able to get to but I’m definitely planning to finish Rhythm of War, and then read Two Twisted Crowns, The Winners, The Christmas Tree Farm, Shady Hollow, Can’t Spell Treason Without Tea, and we’ll see from there!

[turkeyrunner]

I have gotten more into fantasy over the past two years and the first half of 2025 is going to be a big one for me. I have plans to read Stormlight Archive, First Law trilogy, Farseer trilogy, Book of the Ancestor trilogy, and The Aurelian Cycle. Cannot wait!!

[chellyfishing]

Heir is so effing good!!!! That’s all, I just loved that book so much

[ahyokawolf]

Other than Wind and Truth, I'm just trying to finish up Empire of the Vampire, and read The Fury of the Gods. THEN...I'm getting to all the books I started and soft dnf'd or forgot I was reading this year haha. I wish us both the best reading month yet!

[alexreid]

My december tbr is pretty much just finishing the books I’m in the middle of… I have a tendency to get halfway through a book and then lowkey forget about it lol

[pebna-jay]

Yes i recommend chrono vs release order for murderbot diaries! as someone whose read it twice in both orders. and is tempted to do a third reread already and it hasnt been a full year since i finished my first read

[jennyrbaker]

I have Wind & Truth, Weyward, and Heir on my TBR too! I wanted to reread the Stormlight Archive series before Wind & Truth arrives, but I didn't have time to read them. I loved An Ember in the Ashes series. I gave all four books four stars. The number of books that I want to get through by the end of December is ridiculous. 😊
