Hobbit's Journal

Hobbit's Journal: Being a Blank Book with Some Curious Illustrations of Friends and Foes of the Nine Companions | J. R. R. Tolkien

15 books? And the world is ending? You might as well just tell me that some much-needed reading glasses are broken 😜 @RaeLovesToRead (actual pic of me avoiding this dire thought) #ihavequestions #belovedbooks

Here‘s my list (with commentary!):
1. The Hobbit (⬆️THIS copy and yes I‘ll be mad if it gets scuffed or dinged)
2. The Complete Ivory - Egan (hey, series is contained into one book!)
3. Magic Strikes (the BEST Kate Daniels. Fight me.)
⬇️

Larkken 4. Starless Sea (good thing for the apocalypse that my MIL just gave me this)
5. Beauty - Robin McKinley (though maybe Blue Sword instead for the sheer nostalgia? gah)
6. The Wood Wife - Windling
7. Pride and Prejudice
8. Stardust - Gaiman
9. The Princess Bride - Goldman
10. Kushiel‘s Dart. No, wait, Avatar. Gah!
11. Complete Borges short stories (so I can dream of infinite libraries or something 👀)
12. Good Omens (edited) 2y

Larkken 13. Family‘s illustrated Alice and Wonderland
14. Finishing School trilogy by Carriger on audio (when breaking the rules, go big)
15. Moon Called - Briggs (I don‘t have a fav from this series, so this might end up being Whatever One I Grab from series)
Holy nuts I‘d give both my ovaries to have a compilation of the initial Murderbot stories to put on here. Sorry, Pride and Prejudice. Or maybe Good Omens?

I am still working on the #booklet list… (edited) 2y

RaeLovesToRead Love it! Starless sea has come up a few times... I shall purchase it next time I'm in Waterstones! 😁 (Although I still need to read The Night Circus!) I found the booket list easier because there are several books that I ABSOLUTELY NEED TO READ and they just pushed their way to the top.. 😊 2y

Larkken @RaeLovesToRead This was curtailed severely by needing to be physical books present on my shelves! That made it easier lol 2y

IndoorDame Ooh, yes! I should definitely take Alice 2y

5feet.of.fury So far for best Kate Daniels (I‘m on book 7) I‘m going with

Magic Bleeds

5feet.of.fury Also Kate Daniels series has made me want to read the Princess Bride, but I have not yet. Love your Gaiman choices! Great list! 2y

Larkken @5feet.of.fury oooh is this the one where they FINALLY got together? Agreed, that IS nice 2y

Larkken @IndoorDame looking at my shelves made me realize I‘d have to bring at least a/some books based on nostalgia and unwillingness to lose a family copy ❤️! …and not just on what I‘d want to reread…and reread…lol (edited) 2y
