I have many comfort reads—different ones for different comfort needs. The tagged is one (especially the audio version read by Steve West 🥰), along with their Kate Daniels series.

Other comfort reads include anything by Abby Jimenez, Kristen Callihan‘s VIP series, Dirty Secret by Mira Lyn Kelly, David Eddings‘s Belgariad & Mallorean series, Mercy Thompson series by Patricia Briggs, Pride & Prejudice, & HHGTTG

Our #FridayNightshare is to recommend your go-to comfort reads. Seems appropriate for this scary week.

The tagged is my go-to contemporary read. My comfort classics are Sense & Sensibility and David Copperfield.

What are yours?

*throws book at the wall*
I NEED ANSWERS.

My least favourite of the series initially, I found it a slog until the last 100 pages, where SHIT WENT DOWN.

I cried, my soul has died, Rebecca Yarros has ruined my life again.

5feet.of.fury She always nails the ending! ⚡️🖤🐉 2h

jamield1911 @5feet.of.fury the endings are always mindblowing! I need answers! I did find it repetitive in parts, and I found Violet insufferable. I loved how she put so much growth into minor characters, too - Sloane, Ridoc, Cat, and Aaric were the stars of the show for me! 2h

5feet.of.fury The beginning with Vi & Xaden I was like *omg if I hear the word “control” again…* 😂 but Yesssss Aaric was awesome, Sawyer adapting was amazing & Imogen‘s chapter 😩😭 2h

jamield1911 @5feet.of.fury Imogens Chapter has destroyed my soul 😭😭😭 i found Violet insufferable in this book and also found Xaden to be irritating, he was too clingy for me 🤣 can we hop back to shadow Daddy energy please 🤣 1h

pick

LOVED it!
I could nitpick (some language gets repetitive, at times there‘s more telling instead of showing) but the romance, the action, everyone growing as characters, the quest was all so good. & It took a moment to poke at the fans & so-called inconsistencies, which was fun for me.

As always Yarros totally nails the ending. I‘m torn between needing more & hoping we take a long enough break that it‘s worth me re-reading & overthinking lmao

From the Acknowledgements page, “We've all been through a lot over the past few years. This book is my gift to anyone who wants to escape and sink into a world filled with kindness and enchantment.”

With cozies, I like to read the Acknowledgments first because, often, I find a little backstory or context, which adds to the vibes while reading the story.

I apparently bought this in 2014 and have clearly never had the urge to read it. Having a look at it, it seems to be a sequel series. I haven't read anything by this author so that's a bit worrying

MariaW I have the whole series. If you like fantasy it is a nice read, not a studependous one, but nice. 4h

PuddleJumper @MariaW I'm feeling very meh about it. It's not pulling me in and I've got other books that I'm not excited to read. I'll probably end up DNFing it. If I fancy it again I can get it from the library 4h

“ The thin man stepped out of the cauldron, staring at Harry... and Harry stared back into the face that had haunted his nightmares for three years.“

I really liked this part of the book because it is the first time we get to see Voldemort in his own self. Not like a baby or on the back of someone's head.

“Power rises within me so quickly that my skin heats.“

Violet knows there are lies and deceit among leadership at Basgiath, but to what end? What will she do now? I'm eager to see where it all goes...

peyton.a. I have just recently read this, it's a really good book if you're in the mood for that specific genre. 9h

mrferro88 @peyton.a. I'm excited to keep going and get to Onyx Storm soon! 9h
