It took me a minute to get into Ninth House, but once I did, I tore through it.
I think the only ones I won't reread are the original trilogy. But Six of Crows and Crooked Kingdom and King of Scars? Yes, please.
None of it means a damn thing.

There's more to life than watching Buffy the Vampire Slayer! No. Really, there is! Honestly! Here's a place for Buffistas to come and discuss what it is they're reading, their favorite authors and poets. "Geez. Crack a book sometime."

The original trilogy is my least favorite, but I still really enjoyed them, and I’m looking forward to the Netflix series.

I loved them while reading them, too, but I just don't feel a need to go back. And yes, I am super excited about the Netflix series.

I don’t get all the fandom swooning over The Darkling. He’s a pretty irredeemable villain imo whereas Kaz is not.

I read 9th house but wasn’t a huge fan. I may need to reread it some time in the future and see if my opinion changes? Maybe if there’s a sequel. I also wasn’t super a fan of Gideon of the Ninth—I liked parts of it but overall it was too weird for me even though it seemed like it ought to be up my alley.

Dana, you've been commed. I literally laughed out loud at that.

So true, Dana! And I don't get it either, sj.

Thank you for being right headed, Amy.

I read the first Murderbot a while back. I liked the character, but I thought the plot was kind of dull, but everyone here seems to like them so much maybe I'll give the next one a try.
