Fantasy Buddy Reads discussion

Tell us what you're reading this month! :)

My long list of 20-24 Buddy Reads over in the Feb BR thread, and then some Nightside by Simon R Green and probably Vorkosigan Saga by Lois McMaster Bujold on the side...

Hell to Pay ✔
The Unnatural Inquirer ✔
Just Another Judgement Day
The Good, the Bad, and the Uncanny
Cetaganda
Ethan of Athos

I just finished Iron Gold. Now I'm reading Edgedancer and Warbreaker by Brandon Sanderson before I read Oathbringer. Supposedly Edgedancer and Warbreaker has some roles that play into Oathbringer. After all that, I'll start on Nevernight by Jay Kristoff.

So far, I hopped onto the Wizard's First Rule train a little late but I'm enjoying the ride immensely. Upon completion, I'm reading Nevernight and Separation of Power. Then I'm hopeful for Sojourn, The King Beyond the Gate, and The Fifth Season, we'll see... Then at the end of the month definitely starting Stone of Tears. Good times, and Niki, ALL BUDDY READS SO GO POINTS! 👍

Yaaassss!!! 💪

Right now am reading

The Eye of the World
The Providence of Fire
The Idiot

The Diabolic
Girl in Disguise
Snow Crash
The Empress

Not sure what else.

Oooh, Virginie, do you want to buddy read Hollow World? I don't have tons of time, but have been wanting to get to that.

I shouldn't, I'm overbooked, I can't, I... Yeah, sure! :p
When do you want to read it? :)

(I'm trying to read all of Sullivan's books for a challenge in another group. And Sanderson's, Abercrombie's and Lawrence's... )

I can start whenever. If you can't get to it this month I would be happy to wait. It's the only Sullivan left on my list. :D

There's a couple BR I want to get to first so... How about the 15th?

Sure! I'll ask for a thread to be made.

I'm curious about Magic to the Bone. If you end up liking it I might add it to my list.

I finished The Voyage of the Basilisk and will read Dreamer's Pool starting tomorrow.
These were my only fantasy reads planned for this month.

My other reads:
The Fair Fight
When Gods Die
The Song of Achilles
Bad Feminist
Greenglass House

I'll let you know Tammie. At this stage it might be a next month read as I'm waiting on it from the library. I've liked Devon Monk's other series, so think I'll probably enjoy it.

Man I definitely over booked myself this month lol.
Just finished:
Graceling
Range of Ghosts

And currently I'm reading
The Court of Broken Knives (super dark and fun)
Jonathan Strange & Mr Norrell (listening to the audio for this one)
Leviathan Wakes (for some reason I haven't really been getting into this one, not quite in the right mood for it I guess)

Hoping to read:
The Thousand Names
The Left Hand of Darkness

Small possibility I might be able to read more, but I doubt it, been a busier month than usual and I haven't had as much time as I'd like.

On the busy side normally. But I'm trying to squeeze 2-3 books in per month. Currently:

The Blood Mirror - Brent Weeks (Finished)
Age of Myth - Michael J. Sullivan (Current)
Ghosts - Nicholas Sansbury (Future)
