The Tower of Swallows | Andrzej Sapkowski

This one was just a mess. I really enjoyed the previous book, but ToS not so much. I've made it this far into the series, so I'll complete it, but had this been the first book of the series I'd read I wouldn't continue.

Bk22 & last of December, 2021 & #WinterGames2021 and Bk2 of #NewYearSpecial #20in4 #readathon is done!🥳🎉Scraped in by the seat of my pants, I may have had 3 pages left at midnight though🤫Another quick YA crime/thriller from McManus. A different school & kids but she has a knack for making it very readable. Highly recommend. #MerryBookmas #AVeryMerryReadathon #WinterCosy #WrapItUpReadathon #SeasonsOfReading #MistletoeManiacs 1,711pts👇

If you go into these books expecting great writing and hole-free plots, you're gonna be disappointed. But if you just want a fast and fun story with lots of action, they fit the bill.

I think this is my favorite of the series so far. Much more edge of your seat than the previous books.

I enjoyed this one a lot more than the past couple. While I was reading I got curious as to why the bard's name is Jaskier in the show and Dandelion in the books. Turns out it was a change made by the translator. Jaskier apparently translates to Buttercup, but the translator didn't think that fit, so they chose a different flower, hence Dandelion. 🙂

I enjoyed this one but not as much as it seems most people have. It was good, but not my favorite of the year or even the month. Still, a fine book, and the audio was very well done.

Loved this one. I'd take an entire series of just Strax, Vastra, and Jenny.

This one started out so good, I was sure I was going to love it. But by the middle it got so bogged down and just dragged for the last half. Lots of potential, but it wasn't fully realized.

TheSpineView That's disappointing. I have not gotten to this one yet. 3y
Traci1 @TheSpineView it could just be where my mood was at. I listen to these on audio, and while I love the narrator, I found myself drifting a bit. 3y
TheSpineView @Traci1 I read the first two books of the series and was not crazy about the second. I have been debating on reading book 3. 3y
Traci1 @TheSpineView of the 4 I've read, I feel like Last Wish was the best. I've liked each one after a little less than the one before. 3y
TheSpineView @Traci1 oh well... maybe I will just wait a bit before I attempt the 3rd book. 3y

Bk15 of December & #WinterGames2021 is done. And it‘s the #TeamBook too! Plus I‘ve got a ton of #WGWordSearch points plus a few bingo lines completed🎉I quite liked this book. I‘m not a romcom reader at all, but it was sweet, quirky & had a touch of magic as well. Groundhog Day meets Love Actually for sure❤️💚 #AVeryMerryBingo #HemisphereChristmasGames #MerryBookmas #AVeryMerryReadathon #WinterCosy #TisTheReadson #MistletoeManiacs 5,521pts👇
