Oooo I guess I have to shoot the children of time series to the top of my list. I've been seeing it mentioned here and there, and a Hugo is just undeniable!

The first one is amazing, in my opinion a future sci-fi classic. Second one is also good, the third one was OK, many interesting ideas but something felt off. Hard to follow the steps of the first novel. Anyway, I'd definitely recommend starting the series!!

Adrian Tchaikovsky has been on my "to read list" for way to long. I need to remedy that soon.

I listened to the audiobook for the first one, and really enjoyed it. I should pick up the next one.

I just bought Legends & Lattes because of seeing the nominees. I haven't read fantasy books in a while and it seems like it's going to be a cozy read.

I listened to the audiobook earlier in the year and I loved it

Low stakes high fantasy is great, I just wish I could find more audiobooks in the genre as sitting down to read is fairly difficult for me due to my terrible work schedule.

I enjoyed Legends & Lattes much more than I thought I would. It's just a really good story.
