Welcome to Raiding Bookshelves

I’ve finally got the opportunity to dive in to #thebrokenearth trilogy. I loved the intertwining narratives of #thefifthseason and can’t wait to read #theobeliskgate next. #nkjemisin One of the better new #booktok favourites I’ve read. Can’t wait to pick up the sequel. #theatlassix #olivieblake #bookstagram #fantasy I wanted to love this book but I found myself frustrated by the main characters - it felt like reading an episode of friends. Everything was bigger and more dramatic than it needed to be. #yinkawhereisyourhuzband Dived right back in to my Fantasy genre this month and read #percyjackson for the first time. Listened to 38hrs of Stephen Fry and I’m ready for the next instalment. #booktok #bookstagram #book #acotar #fifthseason A fascinating, engaging and titillating insight in to the lives (and tragic ends) of Greece’s most famous and fabulous heroes. #stephenfry #greekmythology #greekheroes A meandering tale of luck, coincidences, a surplus atomic bomb in a pillow factory, a twin who doesn’t really exist and a girl who saves the king of Sweden. #jonasjonasson #girlwhosavedthekingofsweden I could listen to this man read anything but his own book on Greek mythology? 10/10 would listen again. #stephenfry #mythos #greekgods Keeping my @libby.app working hard with some #percyjackson reading. I’ve probably missed my window for these but they’re a fun and easy read. Bit late to the post but Jan reads for 2023! #storygraph #jan23 #bookstagram #booktok A time travelling romance told through letters written in tea leaves, binary and seeds This is how you lose the time war is a beautiful nod to the unexpected and challenging nature of love and the lengths we go to protect that love. #thisishowyoulosethetimewar #amalelmohtar #maxgladstone
