Viv in Legends and Lattes is wonderful! That book is such a delightful, fun, palate cleanser. Completely understandable DNF-ing Malazan, especially after giving it an honest try through the third book and still not feeling it. So grateful for your endorsement of Boy's Life-it was so well written and worth the time! You, Alex, and RJ have me so eager to read The Three Body Problem at some point, and I do plan on starting Bakker as well!

Can't wait to start Lonesome Dove once I knock some of my other historical fiction out of the way. And I should check out some of the classics as well, especially if they can fall into historical fiction. Boy's Life is also another I need to pick up.

Hi Baron! Chas sent me and I'm glad I come on over! Sorry, Malazan was a dud. I'm still on the fence for the same reasons. But I will give it a try at some point. I will be reading East of Eden this year as well! It will be my first Steinback. I love Hobb!! Hopefully, I can finish ROTE this year! Great reading year so far! Glad I found your channel.

Awesome man. As the resident Hobb megafan, I’m not sure I would call her books “fun” or “cozy”, but I suppose compared to Bakker maybe they are. I’ve seen her stuff called “grim sad” which I find both accurate and hilarious. Some awesome reads so far for you this year! Have a great second half my friend!

Glad you enjoyed East of Eden. Some of the earliest Steinbeck is problematic. His story collection The Long Valley has echoes of his mature work and is a good read. His collection To A God Unknown is a good idea but with disappointing execution. Your results may differ. I just finished Assassins' Apprentice by Robin Hobb and enjoyed it. Later this week I'm making a bookstore run and intend to pick up volumes 2 and 3 in the Farseer Trilogy. Happy reading.

I'm with you on Malazan. After hearing all the hype about MoI, I was underwhelmed. There was some great stuff in it, but three stars at the end of the day and left me ambivalent about continuing. My book of the year so far is either Piranesi or Assassin's Apprentice.

I guess Oathbringer (Stormlight Archive # 3) counts as a disappointment considering I DNF'd it. I also DNF'd Elantris and Final Empire but I didn't get very far in either. Whereas I was halfway through Oathbringer.
