ReplyDeleteWritten in red is aaaaamzing
DeleteWait, are you rereading The Others? I love that series! We watched Shazam with the kids. I wasn’t expecting much, but I caught myself laughing out loud several times. It was a surprise. I will have to look up Grey Bastards.
ReplyDeleteI am listening :D Wohoo re-read, like i have time, but I am doing it
DeleteI did not think Shazam would be good either, but I laughed and enjoyed it
I haven't read any of the books but I agree The Grey Bastards has a great cover.

DeleteWritten in Red is a great book! I have been curious about The Grey Bastards.
ReplyDeleteBishop rules!
DeleteI've heard a lot about The Grey Bastards, but haven't read them yet. Are they super dark?
ReplyDeleteLindsi @ Do You Dog-ear? 💬
I do not like grimdark cos of its darkness, and this is grimdark, but it was not grim for me even if dark, so I say not dark
