2017 Favorite Reads

More like favorite first time reads since I did quite a few re-reads of the ultimate favorites

The Wrath and the Dawn

The Wrath and the Dawn

Renee Ahdieh

I didn't like this one as much as I expected. So far, both of the thousand nights retellings that I've read have been a little too similar.

The Winner's Curse

Marie Rutkoski

 

 

 

4.5 stars and I really don't have much that's bad to say about this. I read it in 3 sittings of about 100 pages each and couldn't put it down!

The Bat

Jo Nesbo

 

 

I've heard this series gets much better, so I'm sticking through and hoping that's the case.

Half a King

Joe Abercrombie

 

 

 

Ever since I started my fantasy kick, I've been searching out the best of the best and have gotten quite a lot of recommendations. Along with Sanderson, people had great things to say about Abercrombie. I find that they have a lot in common.

 

Red Rising

Red Rising

 

Pierce Brown

 

 

Not going to lie, I was really into this. There were a few things that bothered me a bit and I hope that they're resolved in the next book but I felt like this was something that took a really old concept and turned it into a really interesting plot.
