"the marrow thieves" by cherie dimaline was recommended to me by @soft sleet . it's the first book i've read in YEARS and it's reminded me of the joys of reading for fun. it's a dystopian story about the indigenous people in canada and it's very cool so far and has so many interesting connections to history, highly recommended! (im still very new to reading sorry)

emerging from my long streak of inactivity to join the conversation about BOOKS

if anyone likes epic fantasy and wants more books with strong female protagonists, LGBTQ+ representation, and dragons, i HIGHLY recommend The Priory of the Orange Tree by Samantha Shannon. the worldbuilding and plot and characters are all so enticing, and even though it's like 800 pages long it's so worth it

my top recommendations are: anything by Brandon Sanderson, the broken earth trilogy by N. K. Jemisin, and the Kingkiller Chronicles by Patrick Rothfuss

#

also, just got the everlost audiobook!

I was late to read these books, but I thoroughly enjoyed Where the Crawdads Sing, The Seven Husbands of Evelyn Hugo, and Hidden Figures. There’s also Girls Like Girls by Hayley Kiyoko, This Delicious Death, and Cleat Cute!

it’s an adult historical fantasy novel

it’s good it blends fantasy with real life but it’s important to note it’s much different than everlost bc the audience is older and deals with serious topics

Good morning, Book Club!! I also want to echo what BTJ said: that was so much fun!! I literally haven't read any books since high school, and getting back into it thru a Discord server was not how I thought it would happen, but I'm very happy it did! josoHYPERS josoLOVE
