So today I am here to make sure that you have them on your TBR. I really enjoyed them all for very different reasons. And I hope you will be them all up yourself. Come take a look.

Russell thank you very much for recommending The Road to Dalton. I finished it yesterday and it's one of my favorites of the year too. Happy Holidays!

@InkandPaperBlog 6 месяцев назад

OMG! I am so glad you loved it. the author is such a sweet person too. I heard that another book in this world is in our near future.

@hollywebster6844 6 месяцев назад

I'm so glad this came up in my feed. I need a new TBR to help me recover from surgery. Thanks and I will check out your other videos.

@InkandPaperBlog 6 месяцев назад

Wishing you a quick recovery. and glad I could add a books or two to your reading list.

You are more than welcome!

@suedavy5394 7 месяцев назад

in Memoriam was probably one of my favourites as well this year. I loved Weyward too. You have me wanting to read The Road to Dalton. Many thanks and Merry Christmas!

@InkandPaperBlog 6 месяцев назад

Oh, I am so glad to hear that. I hope that you like The Road to Dalton as much as I did!

@janethughes7661 7 месяцев назад

Weyward is the book that got me out of my reading slump, absolutely loved it! So many interesting titles you discussed. Will be checking with my local library for a few of them.

@InkandPaperBlog 6 месяцев назад

Oh goodness. That is the best - a book that gets you out a slump.

@nancymihalik1497 7 месяцев назад

In Memoriam is my Best Book of 2023. It was so intense, realistic, heart wrenching, and has continued to stay in my thoughts months after I finished reading it. Highly recommend it. I added both the Europa books to my TBR. Thanks for your insights!

@InkandPaperBlog 7 месяцев назад

Oh I am so glad to hear that. I think you will love the Europa books, promise.

@lizhumphreys157 7 месяцев назад

In Memoriam is a total masterpiece and absolutely deserves more attention so thank you for putting it in your spotlight. I’m now off to check out the other five books you mention, all of which sound fabulous.

@InkandPaperBlog 7 месяцев назад

I am so glad you agree with me. It may make my top 10 as well. As I start to think about this. I hope I can add another great read to your year!

@Phillybookfairy 6 месяцев назад

Hi Russ, I really enjoyed Weyward also & I adore that cover! I have In Memoriam on my 2024 tbr top reads shelf and I’m looking forward to it! I’m adding those first two books to my tbr as well ! Happy New Year!

@InkandPaperBlog 6 месяцев назад

Howdy. I am so glad that you liked Weyward. It is a book not enough people read, I think. Let me know that you think of In Memoriam. It is a sad one.

@Phillybookfairy 6 месяцев назад

@@InkandPaperBlog will do! I’m just starting Julia 1984, and just finished 1984 on audio and I swear that story was a horror story to me! Can’t wait to read Julia’s POV!

@gailhewitt1467 7 месяцев назад

I really love your channel as you introduce so many interesting books that are not always featured on other channels. I'm particularly drawn to Barbara Isn't Dying but have added a few of them to my wish list. I already have In Memoriam which will be one of my first reads for 2024.

@InkandPaperBlog 7 месяцев назад

oh thank you so much. I do like to read those off the beaten path books LOL. I hope you love In Memoriam. It is sad, so be ready. But worth every page.

@readandre-read 7 месяцев назад

Yes! Bring on the family saga drama! I'm adding Little Monsters to my list. I recently bought The Road to Dalton but I haven't read it yet.

@InkandPaperBlog 7 месяцев назад

I think that if you like family drama both of those books will do it for you! Happy Reading.

@madeubook 7 месяцев назад

Barbara Isn’t Dying was fantastic!!! It almost made my top 2023 reads but narrowly missed out. I completely agree with you about Europa and there were 3 of their other books on my official best reads list. I talk about them all the time and I wish more people picked them up. Not only are the stories great but I love the quality of their books too. Thanks for championing them too! I have yet to get to The Road to Dalton but now I’m super excited to get to it.

@InkandPaperBlog 7 месяцев назад

I totally agree. I don’t know if it will make my top 10 but it will be close! i hope you love Dalton.

@maryfilippou6667 7 месяцев назад

First time you popped up. I can't wait to get Barbara is Dying! And the Road to Dalton and the others I must focus on You're recommending! How interesting and likeable you and presentation are! Lucky me with bookstore next block Up!

@InkandPaperBlog 7 месяцев назад

Oh I am so glad you found me. I am glad I could get a few books on your list. I hope you come back for more.

@jaynehunter-ar 7 месяцев назад

I really liked Weyward, too, and I have In Memoriam on my shelves. My bookseller highly recommended Sing Her Down-coupled with your recommendation that’s a sure hit for me

@InkandPaperBlog 7 месяцев назад

Sounds like you have a couple of amazing reads coming your way! I am so glad you liked Weyward. I want more people to love it.

@curioushmm9027 7 месяцев назад

thanks russell...they do sounnd great.

@InkandPaperBlog 7 месяцев назад

Thank you my friend.

@anneaustex 7 месяцев назад

Thanks for all your bookish content. There is some overlap in our reading venn diagrams and one area of similarity is Europa titles. I have a Europa author to recommend: Daniele Mencarelli. Two of his books are newly published in the USA. I read and loved The House of Gazes. Highly recommend this incredible story of a young man lost in addiction until he takes a job as a janitor at the local children’s hospital. I think you would love it.

@InkandPaperBlog 7 месяцев назад

Yes. They are amazing. I read Everything Calls for Salvation and really liked it. I need to pick up more of his books for sure.

@wavaleebranch 7 месяцев назад

You talked about THE ROAD TO DALTON ear, which caused me to read it. Thank you! It was excellent!

@InkandPaperBlog 7 месяцев назад

that is what I love to hear. I am so glad you liked it. I have heard the sequel comes out next year

@Rose-qv9bq 7 месяцев назад

In Memoriam was just so lovely and devastating! A great debut by Alice Winn. I’m looking forward to more of her work in the future

@InkandPaperBlog 7 месяцев назад

I 100% agree with you. I cannot wait to see what she does next.

@Phillybookfairy 7 месяцев назад

I do have In Memorium and am looking forward to hopefully reading it in 24!

@InkandPaperBlog 7 месяцев назад

yeah - I hope you love it!

@Georgesmomsu 7 месяцев назад

Weyward was fantastic. The audiobook was very well done. I’ve had Sing Her Down on my TBR since August - did you talk about it then? Just borrows the audiobook. Emily Isn’t Dying sounds great. You always make my tbr groan 😂 One of my best underrated books of the year is The Whalebone Theatre by Joanna Quinn.

@InkandPaperBlog 7 месяцев назад

I started The Whalebone Theatre and got away from it. I will need to get back to it. I think you will really like Emily Isn’t Dying.

@Sunshinysky432 Месяц назад

Loved Weyward!!👍🏻

@InkandPaperBlog Месяц назад

It is an amazing book.

@judybrown1624 7 месяцев назад

I bought The Road to Dalton and Weyward. You're killing my budget.

@InkandPaperBlog 7 месяцев назад

That is what I love to yearn for … not the budget but the picking up books. LOL. I hope you love them so much. Happy Reading.

@wavaleebranch 7 месяцев назад

IN MEMORIUM, oh yes, fantastic!

@InkandPaperBlog 7 месяцев назад

Oh I am so glad you thought so.

@lizardslaw2661 7 месяцев назад

In Memoriam was my top read this year. Beautiful & heartbreaking.

@InkandPaperBlog 7 месяцев назад

I am so glad to hear that. It is so very good.

@dionnasoares8332 7 месяцев назад

I read The NYTimes Sunday book review every week, so I have either read the review of these books , or they were not on my radar.

@InkandPaperBlog 7 месяцев назад

I do like the books people usually do not talk about LOL. I hope you like one or two.

@jacquelinemcmenamin8204 7 месяцев назад

The two I’ve read are Little Monsters ( after your review) Weyward Little Monsters was a 5 star read for me. Weyward was more like 4 stars. I hear a train whistle ( lovely sound). We have no trains here. I’ve read 22 five star reads so far this year. Only two are non fiction. My Fourth Time ,We Drowned by Sally Hayden Good Morning Monster ( about therapy) My best fiction of 2023 still remains Deluge by Stephen Markley ☘️👋🍀📖☕️📚📕🇮🇪

@InkandPaperBlog 7 месяцев назад

22 5 stars amazing. I am glad you liked Little Monsters, more people need to read it. I started Deluge, but it is so long! You always read the best.

@eliotopian 7 месяцев назад

Weyward… I was so self hyped for this book. It was just not doing it for me. I was bored and constantly telling myself “I’m sure it’s just about to get good!” And it just never did. Similar to the lost apothecary.

@InkandPaperBlog 7 месяцев назад

Oh that is too bad. I never felt that way. I thought the pages just turned. But that is okay, tons of books to read in the world.

@sarah-roadworthy 7 месяцев назад

I loved Road to Dalton as well. There was some things about In Memoriam that seemed unrealistic- Everyone in their families and at school accepted their relationship? Really?

@InkandPaperBlog 7 месяцев назад

Oh I am so glad to hear that. I can see what you are saying, but I do like to think that there are families/friends even back then that would have been okay with everything. But one out of two isn’t bad.

' In Memoriam ' I will search for. One gripe. Happy though I am that women can write about the love of two men, it is sad that more men do not put pen to paper about it and be published!!! Does the publishing system prevent this or is it a psychological click in the gut that says there is only a minority interest for it ? I read and like women writers, but I sense the male reader and writer are being put to one side.

@InkandPaperBlog 7 месяцев назад

oh I think that there are a lot of men writing about gay love - Brandon Taylor, Bryan Washington, Justin Taylor. There were debut novels by Kyle Dillon Hertz & Sidney Karger - both very good, and very different. You can certainly find them, promise.
