Congrats on 2k- what I like about your videos is that you put enough enthusiasm into them without being the “HEY GUYS!” KZitemr and the right amount of thoughtful commentary without being boring. Also, have been loving the diversity of books being shown recently on “fantasy” channels like you reading Krueger and Jimmy delving into lit fic and romance. Life is multi faceted and it’s nice to see people branching out! Looking forward to your top 10!

The Will of the Many is on my TBR! I even bought a copy. Speaking of dark academia, I'm currently reading (among other things) The Mountain of Souls, by Marcus Lee. I'm not too far into it yet, but it's looking really interesting. And because I like to mix things up, I'm also reading The Last Ranger, by J.D.L. Rosell; The Thousandfold Thought, by R. Scott Bakker (this is a re-read), and Shadow of the Gods, by John Gwynne.

NGL those Red Rising comparisons have been putting me off Will of the Many 😅 I read Boy's Life earlier this year and totally see why it's a favourite for so many, I liked it. So far this month I've read: *Comics* Scott Pilgrim Volume 1 (re-read) Sin City: The Hard Goodbye (re-read) *Historical-Fantasy* The Last Light of the Sun / Guy Gavriel Kay - Carried over from June. Kay's take on the Viking invasions of Saxon England under Alfred the Great. Underrated but not a new favourite. I'm currently reading: *Sci-Fi* Cloud Atlas / David Mitchell - Almost DNFed after slogging through the 1st story but I'm loving it now. *Thriller* The Winter of Frankie Machine / Don Winslow - Halfway through, really enjoying Winslow's style. *Western* Streets of Laredo / Larry McMurtry - Sequel to Lonesome Dove.
