Mid-Year Book Freak Out Tag ☀️ 

Wow you some really interesting books a couple I hope to get at some point nice video 👍

I finished Voyage of The Damend a couple weeks ago.While not my favourite of the year, I really had a good time with it.

So many beautiful books. It really is amazing just how much flourish special editions can have. Do you have regular versions for reading and keep them special editions for display? When I was rereading the Hobbit recently, I took the dusk jacket off, because it was coming loose as I read. The naked hardback is pure white, and all the text and a drawn frame are in a thin, dull gold leaf. I wasn't even halfway through when I noticed my hands were rubbing at the leaf, either turned it green or just smearing it off completely. So, I would be terrified to read one of those special editions. 😱 I got the Arslan novels recently. The series is comprised of 16 books! 😄I decided to get the novels instead of the manga, because the novel series is already finished and I'm wanting to read more novels relative to manga. Plus, I can enjoy reading the manga later and seeing how it compares to my vision of what the characters looked like, and what, if anything was changed in the story. Thanks for nerding out with your books! It was fun! 😁
