"Think not of the books you've bought as a 'to be read' pile. Instead, think of your bookcase as a wine cellar. You collect books to be read at the right time, the right place, and the right mood." --Luc van Donkersgoed. Great video as always, Leonie, have a wonderful week!

That is the perfect image for how I build both my book and game libraries. I normally keep at least one book for each "mood" in stock so that I can always pick the right book for that moment. After I finish something, I take a day or so to digest what I read and to reflect on what feels right to read next. The only time planning comes in is when I try to make the most of a school break or of a specific time (e.g. spooky books around Halloween).

I'm theming my TBR around the US monthly observances (so like, May is Asian American Heritage Month). I'm saying at least half of the books I read each month have to be aligned to that month's observance by author and preferably also theme. I've been planning at least a few books a few months ahead, and discovering more along the way, and I'm really enjoying it and learning so much! I'm really excited about June, which is Pride Month!

Downloaded Notion with your link. I had already planned my reading for the first few months. I had paper lists that I had to cross-reference with Goodreads. Within Notion, I set up a database with information about the book (name, author, genre), what platform I had it on (audible, print, kindle, library), and the planned reading month. I was then able to generate some dashboards that showed how many of my January books I have completed and how many are left. Cool tool!

left hand of darkness is my absolute favourite book i read last year ❤️ my partner encouraged me to read it (he also said i could try „the dispossessed”, but that it’s very different and i would probably not like it as much, so maybe „left hand” could also be more up your alley). i can’t remember the last time a book made me cry so much, it was very emotional and the relationship between the two main characters was explored beautifully. the gender aspect of the book was very interesting but for me the story was also about different aspects of patriotism and xenophobia, it also has a great political intrigue. but i should also warn that for me it was a slow book, so don’t expect rapid twists and turns, in my opinion Ursula LeGuin’s writing is slow but steady, beautiful and flowing. I also highly recommend The Earthsea series by her, it’s just pure literary magic.

Just found this, you make a beautiful planning space. I just started and only use an excel really. I use it to both keep track of what I read as well as what I'm planning to read (and sometimes which music I plan to accompany a book). For the year I just plan 1 or 2 long series and then fill in the gaps. I plan about 2800-3000 pages per month (not that the number matters, but I've found I can consistently get around that number in). The basis each month is usually a chunker from one of the longer series (currently reading Malazan and stormlight archive). and then later I'll fill up the month(s) with smaller series, at least 2 ebooks, and I try to read a short story collection at least every other month this year. Of course the lists are completely flexible so if I get recommended something on youtube or by a friend I might just throw something of the lists and read that instead (This is how I threw everything off balance by suddenly starting a 900 page 'Lonesome Dove' read because of a friend; go read it, its awesome).

I apologise in advance for the length of this comment but I am very excited 🤣 My Notion 2023 TBR has 284 books on it and they're separated by month amongst many other things because of, you know, the neurodivergence. You are going to fall in love with the absolute ✨vibes✨ of The Starless Sea. It's a meta book about stories, so it's really ~no plot, no characters, just vibes~. A lot of people have beef with that but it's my favourite fiction book, so I can't wait to hear you talk about it. Also predicting you'll love The House in the Cerulean Sea and Legends & Lattes because they are so heartwarming they're like a hug in book form. Less intense atmospheric vibes than TSS but immersive nonetheless. Strange the Dreamer is FANTASTIC and very dreamy indeed. The sequel is just as good. I agree it's going to become a new favourite for you. I have the same issue with Le Guin: I love the premise but I am very bored by the execution. I really liked The Dispossessed but DNFd The Left Hand of Darkness. I would suggest you pick up her essay collection Dancing at the Edge of the World instead. You get her ideas without the boring sci-fi. A Dowry of blood was... fine, but it's a cheap imitation of Interview with the Vampire, so you may want to read it before Anne Rice. Rice is going to hurt all of your feelings, but like, in a good way. Rilke is as good as Marcus Aurelius, and you'll love it, but you seem to have very lighthearted expectations of this book and it's a lot more depressing than that. I tried to read The Wolf and the Huntsman and there was a surprising amount of mutilation in it, but the entire plot is there to serve an enemies to lovers romance, so you may actually like it. I thought it didn't have much else going for it and I DNFd it, but I don't usually enjoy YA romance, so take this with a grain of salt. Recommending literally everything T. Kingfisher has ever written to you, because her dark cottagecore vibes are off the chart.

I love your process, and so many of the books you mentioned have been favorites I've already read (and some are books that I am hoping to read soonish). I do make a priority list, and I make priority stacks of the actual books that I might want to read in a particular month or season. It helps me not forget a title that I had perhaps saved for that specific time of year. But this year I'm, so far anyway, consciously choosing to be more spontaneous in my book choices, but also aiming to read more books I already own (or can get for free at the library) instead of adding new books to my already overflowing shelves. We shall see how that all goes.

Ahhhh, I really think you'll love Strange the Dreamer! Honestly the blurb didn't really set me up for much, I was surprised by how much I liked it. Also, the person who recommended it to me highly suggested I get both books, which normally isn't a good idea because you don't know if you'll like it, but most people do and the second book starts right where the first one ended so it's very much worth it. You should also definitely read Laini Taylor's other series (if you haven't already), I loved that one too (although it's a bit different in vibe).

I usually make a plan of the books that I want to prioritise every month, though I don’t always get to all of them because it’s nice to have a list of books you’re already hyped about ready for every time you finish a book (or when you want to start a new one 😂). For this year I have made a custom reading challenge with prompts that fit with books that I had on my list for a while and want to prioritise and this way I will hopefully get to them. It’s not really necessary for it to be a reading challenge but I love the accomplishment I feel when I see the overall percentage raise 😅 It’s going to be hard not having my list of books that I want to read reach unrealistic numbers though with all the great recommendations that I’m finding on book tube (and your channel is especially good at predicting books that I will like)

I use google sheets for organizing my reading plans. It is great because I can set up functions to calculate for me how many pages I "should" read per day / per week in order to "be on track".

It makes me so happy!

This video comes at a perfect time! I just started a reading journal to keep track of what I read every month and to write mini reviews, thoughts, doodles, and even new words I learn. I love journaling and fountain pens, so I went the analog route haha! Btw!! I started reading the folk of the air books by Holly Black because of your recommendations and omg! It is THE Holly Black who has published with Cassandra Clare! Every time I see your videos I think of how much you would enjoy the fantasy world created by Cassandra Clare. She has written a TON, but I've been reading her books for like 10 years and I truly think that a great starting point is her Infernal Devices trilogy. It's set in the 1800s, has the BEST love triangle ever written, and definitely has a bit of a dark academia tint to it. Cassandra Clare also includes the fae in her fantasy world, in a similar vibe to Holly Black, but she focuses more on fae characters and storylines in other series (in case you feel inspired after the infernal devices haha!). I thought I would recommend it since they have a very similar vibe if you are in the lookout for even more books to add to your tbr lol

Hi, Leonie. I am also a fan of Le Guin’s books. I think that maybe you can try her short story collections, the Wind’s Twelve Quarters and Compass Rose. The Wind is more beautiful and Compass is more thought-provoking. SF Masterwork has a bind-up of the two. I also like the Annihilation film very much and went to read the book. I can tell you that the film is not really a loyal adaptation to the original story. The original story may not be what you think it to be, but you should still try it. Both the book and the film are very good. They are just not the same story.

I started planning my reading a couple of years ago when I decided I would read Harry Potter for the first time. I also started trying to prioritize reading books that I had owned for a very long time without reading them (some were on the shelf for over a decade like House of Leaves). This year I'm focusing on closing the very large gap in that I've read very few Stephen King books (which dovetails nicely with reading books I've owned for a long time, embarrassingly). Also I'm trying to branch out into some genres outside of my comfort zone with some traditional classics and maybe some westerns.

The Starless Sea is one of my all time favorite books. I just reread it at the beginning of the year and annotated a copy of it for my bff

Laini Taylor's Strange the Dreamer is a duology with Muse of Nightmares. When you start reading Strange the Dreamer, if you find yourself really enjoying it within the first 50 pages, then go ahead and get the sequel. I liked Taylor's Daughter of Smoke and Bone trilogy much more.

Please read the Left Hand of Darkness! I adore it. I fortunately got to study it way back in highschool. It's on my re-read list!

I've just been going to the library. I take a screenshot of the book on the library's website so I have the call number ready. I have a priority folder for the ones I want to read the most.

I use Microsoft OneNote to plan in a similar style. The notes are arranged in notebooks which roughly correspond to projects I am working on. Each notebook as a list of items that are To-Dos. The To-Dos may have bullet points indented below with steps needed to complete them. As they are completed they get strike throughs. I like doing that rather than deleting them because it keeps the record of what I have done. Usually, near the start of a new year, I take my current set of completed To-Dos and move them to a 'Previous Years To-Dos', which should all be stuck through. I may also remove items I am not going to do and put them in a 'did not accomplish' archive. Finally, in day-to-day use, I try to choose three items from whatever I am working on and do those three things. If I finish one, I may choose another to add that day depending on the complexity of the other two. Occasionally, if things get stuck, I might stop focusing on my top three and start working on a few easy To-Dos that I know will take 15 - 30 minutes or less each to start getting a sense of forward momentum. On a different note, Changeling: The Dreaming and Changeling: The Lost might be of interest for their lore. They can be fun to play too, but that might impact reading goals. kzitem.info/news/bejne/orBn34mZr2d8inY kzitem.info/news/bejne/tWeVmmiGpouEko4
