👍 Book I like: Acacia! The worldbuilding is top notch!

👆 Book I like to recommend: Theft of Swords! Such a fun and hilarious fantasy series!

🖕 Book I didn't like: The Phantom Tollbooth

💍 Character I'd marry: Geralt of Rivia. 😍 YUM

🤙 Pinky promise I'll soon read: The Ruin of Kings. I have the first two books and they look great!

This was super fun! 😀📚💕 Thanks for the tag @DaveGreen7777 #fivefingerstack #chaplin #catsoflitsy

#BeatTheBacklist the current book I'm reading is Acacia by David Anthony Durham. Not sure how I feel about it so far.

The bookmark isn't being rude. It's from a company called Novel-T, who make "team" shirts for different books and authors. They also made little bookmarks/cards with the same design. This one is for Moby Dick. They have had a booth at the Printers Row Lit Fest if you're in Chicago.

You can see more shirts at www.novel-t.com

All in all, a very good book. My only problems with it are problems I have with all epics: it was very long and I had some amount of trouble keeping track of the characters. However, the pacing was actually really good, and the story was intriguing.

Molly_the_mezzo @mabell Thank you! 7y
BookBabe You‘re signed up for a tea subscription box?! As if I needed more convincing that you‘re awesome. 😁🙌🏻 7y
Molly_the_mezzo @BookBabe It‘s pretty much the best thing ever. They send you four teas every month, with enough of each tea to make about two big pots (my pot is huge, a normal sized pot you could probably make three or four) with a variety of green, black, rooibos, and herbal. I have yet to get a tea from them that I didn‘t like! 7y

Here in ltaly, Acacia was split into two books. And they provided pretty awesome covers, in my opinion

A must-read for any fan of Fantasy! Fascinating, diverse characters, vivid world-building, and a plot that never ceases to surprise.
