How are you liking Pride of Chanur? C.J. Cherryh has been on my wish list for a while, but can't find her books at my local bookshops. Maybe I should just order from Amazon, they have Omnibus version available.
Also how are you liking Arabs a 3000 year history of People, Tribes and Empires? Just looked it up and it looks like an interesting book. Also learned a new word, "Arabist".
I have heard good things about Scholomance. Other than Harry Potter, the only other "school for magic" book I can think of is "The Magicians" by Lev Grossman. But I have only read the first book, going to complete the series some day.
The Craft Sequence looks nice, but he hasn't written anything since 2017, and Wikipedia says, "It will be followed by both novels and novella-length works starting in 2018.". Not going to start until I am sure the series is finished, or that he is writing regularly. ๐
Thanks for the feedback, going to check them at my local bookstore.
Side books as in the other 10 Malazan books, written by that other author (Sorry, forgot his name), or there are some other books too?
How are you liking the series? I haven't read Rhythm of War. By the time I got around to it, I realised I am going to have to re-read the whole series when the 5th one comes out, so didn't start it. Going to start the re-read next year, and will read it then.
It's nice to see a mention of GNU Terry Pratchett. ๐
Riyria Revelations is on my wish list. Let's see when I get to them.
Yeah, I used to do these challenges before, but sometimes they become a chore. Why not change the rules for yourself a bit, if the book becomes a drag, you can just leave it midway, and consider it done for the bingo challenge. That's what I do now, if I have have given it my best, for me it is as good as done.
Of course, if this is some kind of competition, then you should either finish it completely or don't mark that item, but these bingo cards are just for fun, and made to broaden your reading genre/author/etc, so you decide how you take them.
D2 is probably one of my favourite game ever. I have played D3, and beta of D4, and while I liked D4 a lot, it doesn't come close to what D2 was.
I can understand the feeling, sometimes you just aren't in the mood for something. In my opinion, it's completely fine to leave it, you can always come back to it later, if you are in the mood, or not, nothing wrong with either. Life is too short, and there are enough books and tv/movies out there that we will never run out. So, why waste time on something that we aren't fully enjoying?
Heh, that is most probably true. On reddit, I too was subscribed to both bullet journal and fountain pens subs. Though, haven't joined it here (yet), it is not a healthy community for your wallet. ๐
I have more inks that I'll probably use in next decade, don't have enough pens though... also missing a few colours in ink...
This sounds interesting. Will check it out.
I am actually up for some Zombie novels, which ones do you think are some of the best?
Yeah, there are two Omnibus for Chanur, first one The Chanur Saga has book 1-3, and Chanur's Endgame has last two, 4-5. Will probably just order both of them.
That sounds fascinating. For new topics, I like the approach of first reading a general book which covers vast areas of the topic, and then getting book which covers the area you are interested in, in more detail. Adding it to my wish list!
Thanks for the detailed reply!
