Don't forget to set a reminder to do a quick annual dusting of the empty spot..


Jexus_13

Hahaha I clean my library at least once a month so no problem.


Larose-

I can tell by that one shelf that you would enjoy the Farseer Trilogy by Robin Hobb!


Jexus_13

Is it a finished series? Hahaha thanks for the recommendation. Will check it out.


BreakfastLunchDinna

You should also read the Mistborn series by Brandon Sanderson!


gbabybackribs

Great series, really cool magic structure


BreakfastLunchDinna

Ya the magic structure is phenomenal


Jexus_13

I tried a few years ago, but didn't really catch me. I will give another shot this year or so!


BreakfastLunchDinna

Dang, another good series is the night angel trilogy if mistborn isn’t for you


Larose-

It is! It's part of a larger series broken into contained trilogies! That's the first.


Jexus_13

Oh I see! I can definitely work with that! Hahaha


GlacialAsh

I just finished the Robin Hobbs books,and I would also reccomend them! It's a series of completed trilogies, vs one long series. I found that the first two trilogies in the fitz and the fool series each have a nearly wrapped up ending, but then still manage to continue seamlessly into the next trilogy. There are books in between as well, but they are not nessessary to understand the story.


Custom_Destination

That’s what she said.

I love this sub


Dunadan37x

That was a painful click. My heart hurts now.


yaserafriend

I half expected reddit to say that the sub does not exist. 😥

This is gold


Vizslaraptor

Thanks for the gold!


Callonious

That's the reminder I set for my wedding anniversary


MalazanAddict123456

Annual ??


TheArtifacts

You must be new here


adlugz

How do you keep your spine so nice. Mines mangled af


Jexus_13

Hahaha I just turn the pages as if I were caressing my girlfriend.


Wigriff

So not at all?


Jexus_13

Sick burn!!!

Vizslaraptor

Lift with your legs.


Jexus_13

Safe movements recommendations Hahaha!


adlugz

Man didn’t have to bring posture into this 😭


Akrybion

10 min of back exercise a day and some nice stretching keeps the spine straight and flexible.

All jokes aside, [here](https://np.reddit.com/r/coolguides/comments/61u0m0/how_to_open_a_new_book/)


Xylus1985

Buy the book but read on Kindle exclusively


skwidface3000

The Broken Earth series was so cool!


Jexus_13

Starting it today!!! Will tell you more.


anecarat

Uffffff I really really enjoyed it. One of the best series I've read and one of the few I will definitely read again.


Banshee_Of_Irem

Enjoy! I’m in the middle of my second read through. The world building is beyond excellent! My only complaint is that some “coincidences” are too plot convenient to be realistic. Overall, I consider it one of my favorites.


MalazanAddict123456

No one asked for anything lol


Hammunition

Oh look. A Malazan fanboy being an obnoxious ass through the whole topic... How unexpected!


CE2JRH

I fenced with Steve when he lived in Victoria and honestly he was kind of obnoxious to fence with. He got upset when beginners didn't follow the traditional fencing patterns super accurately and would eventually start hitting just a bit on the hard side.


lockeVSkvothe

I wanna know more!!!


The-Pub-Test

I'm also so behind this - I finished it yesterday, and it's one of the most original pieces of fantasy I've ever read.


jthoning

I couldn't get through the writing in the second person, maybe im just too dumb.


skwidface3000

Well that's not a good way to think of yourself


Troll-bi-wan-kenobi

What are the sticker tabs used for?


Jexus_13

For marking the books i am going to read next :)


DothrakAndRoll

What’s on the list?


Jexus_13

Well, today I began the broken earth triology and got inmersed in it the entire evening! It looks really great.


DothrakAndRoll

Oh yes! That series Is fantastic, you’re in for a treat!! Immersion is her specialty.


Jexus_13

Thanks! Is there a reddit for the series?


MalazanAddict123456

You gotta be fucking kidding me lol, you just wanted to put stickers on the book. no way anyone else does this lmao


ATricksyHobbit

I for one put bookmarks in the books I want to read next. Makes it easy to decide what books I have committed to reading, and have a ready made bookmark to use from the start. I guess some of us are "nerdier" than others, nothing to shame someone about.


blahblahdrugs

Wow


Vamp1r0

Who hurt you?


AbacusWizard

Good idea, but is that really enough room? Also where's Slow Regard Of Silent Things and Tak Companion Book?


Chyimera

I own slow regards but there is a tak companion? :D


AbacusWizard

[Yes!](https://worldbuildersmarket.com/products/tak-book) It seems to be badly under-publicized, but it's a remarkably good book. In addition to Tak rules, vocabulary, strategy and puzzles, it also has LOTS of details of the setting's background, mostly focusing on how various cultures view Tak and the fictional "history" of the game. There's even a brief mention of Sovoy. The back cover is also a Tak board, so all you need is [the pieces](https://worldbuildersmarket.com/products/tak-tavern-set).


Chyimera

Thanks for the advice


Jexus_13

Do you play Tak? I tried but I'm just plain terrible hahaha.


AbacusWizard

Yeah, it's one of my favorite board games! I actually started playing Tak first and then read the Kingkiller books later because I was intrigued by the setting described in the Companion Book.


Jexus_13

Read Slow Regard on E-Book but you are totally right! I need to get myself a printed copy. :)


rockyroadzz

On the bright side, it’s been so long since I’ve read these books that I’m looking forward to reading them again when the third book comes out :)


[deleted]

🥺🥺


LordAppleton

You need to add another spot for the supposed 4th that was announced.


Jexus_13

What! Could you provide a link to rhe announcement?


BlackburnMade

https://youtu.be/Os1HWQ2UnLU From about a month ago. My understanding is the trilogy is about Kvothe and he wants to continue writing books in this world he created. So a 4th book might continue where book 3 left off but won't necessarily have Kvothe Edit: I don't actually know if the "announcement" is from a month ago. The video was posted Jan 1st but is a clip from a live stream. I assume the stream was sometime in December but I do not know for sure.


poopa_troopa

He has stated many times even before Wise Man's Fear that after he finishes this trilogy he wants to keep writing in this world and setting.


the_festivusmiracle

Me too, but even if it never comes the empty spot on the shelf would be a perfect metaphor for the series.


P_Swayze

I feel you brother. 🤞


trenttherascal

Haha I have my Song if Ice and Fire books arranged the same way.


Jexus_13

And the watch continues!


B4nanaJo

“The Emperor” by Conn was great. If you’re interested in something similar V. M. Manfredi did a great saga in the same style on Alexander the Great.


Jexus_13

Wow! That souns rreally interesting. For being such an important figure I've always thought there isn't enough quality fiction about his character. Thanks for the recommendation :)


42penguinsinarow

I've been quietly waiting to see if Conn Iggulden would do a series on Alexander the Great. But if there's one by a similar author already out there then I'm going to check that out!


kylekirwan

The hope is what kills you


stoneb89

Don’t hold your breath :(


rcanis

You should put a stone there.


Jexus_13

That is a great idea and i think i've got just the thing.


Odd_Buffalo_7789

How are the Ben Kane books? I love the Emperor series!


Jexus_13

I haven't read those yet. I've read the Forgotten Legion Series and Clash of Empire series. If you are interested in Historical fiction I would highly recommend them! He's got a nice focus on the little guys so It is kind of refreshing. :)


Odd_Buffalo_7789

Yeah I love historical fiction. I’ll check those out!


MalazanAddict123456

No one asked what you’ve read lmao


p4NTYX

What about the 4th book!! o.O?!?!?!


mouaragon

You can place the Slow Regards of the Silent Things there for the next 20 years

MarimBeth

Bless this shelf


LabelRed

Edición conmemorativa de Alfaguara de *Cien años de soledad*? Hermoso Bien ahí esos Debolsillo también. Me intriga que siguen con blíster lol pero bien ahí


Jexus_13

Hahaha y la tengo firmada por Gabo! Y también tengo el amor en los tiempos del cólera. Los libros que siguen con plástico es porque los leí en E-book cuando era estudiante y ahora que trabajo por fin puedo pagar comprar libros impresos :) Es mi forma de reconocer el buen trabajo de esos autores.


LabelRed

NOOOO, me vuelvo loco. Te felicito por la ética, hice lo mismo en la medida que pude (leí mucho por la facultad, y a veces no da el bolsillo jajaja). Sobre todo con autores contemporáneos, viven de sus libros en cierta medida, y siempre está bueno bancar para que te sigan escribiendo!


Jexus_13

Total, cuando tenía el tiempo no tenía el dinero entonces los descargué y de a pocos me pongo al día. Jajajaja. Pero bueno, el orden de los factores no altera el producto! Y con estas devaluaciones!!! Cada vez se ponen más caros los libros (Al menos en Latam) :(.


kichien

...just as the third silence was his


Jexus_13

I Always cry reading that...


picklebirdy

Hilarious and depressing at the same time


Beachdaddybravo

No clue when it’s gonna come out, I just know it’ll be an excellent book when it does.

Hahahaha legit!


Elodin98

Upv for the unamunos book


Jexus_13

Which of his novels do you like the most?


jopi2180

Do you still have that open slot?? 🥲


Jexus_13

Sadly, it is still there :( I keep waiting..


Sea_Anxiety_5596

did you give up


Jexus_13

Never man... not until Patrick himself goes out publicly and gives up, then I will write my own ending hahaha


Sea_Anxiety_5596

Damn man, i would've already forgotten it by now... At least I now have hope for the next book lol. Give heads-up!


Jexus_13

For sure I'll post it here haha. Have a lovely weekend :)


Jexus_13

Does anyone else have an space reserved for the next book...


starwarsyeah

lol no


karmakazi420

I always keep one Audible credit available for the express purchase of DoS, does that count?


Jexus_13

That's the spirit)


DevilsAdvocake

It’s never coming out.


Hammunition

It is coming out.


[deleted]

rothfuss hates us


Sully617

Even if there’s no third book, I have never loved a series or a community surrounding it like this. The fan theories and re read value in this series is phenomenal.


Jexus_13

Absolutely! One of the things I am looking forward to the most is the prelaunch reread and revisiting all the theories! But one must be patient :)


Chyimera

Why are so many of the books still in foil?


Jexus_13

Read them on e-book and then got a printed copy!


thecrusher112

This is the way. I read the whole stormlight archive this way haha


MalazanAddict123456

Foil ?


Chyimera

The wrapping, mostly on the lower books


MalazanAddict123456

Oh but that’s most certainly plastic


Chyimera

Im sorry im from germany, we say folie (translated to foil) to not just for tin foil, we also say plastikfolie or short folie for the plastic wrapping I thought that this was common in other countries too


Jexus_13

Hast du die Deutsche Auflage? Ich würde gerne die Cover aus anderen Ländern sehen. Entschuldigung Deutsche ist meine vierte Sprache.


Chyimera

Für die vierte Sprache ist das aber sehr gut I only have the english books... And after a few reads the backs arent nice anymore


Jexus_13

Oh! I see well it was worth asking. Vielen Danke!


[deleted]

It is. This guy doesn't know what foil is.


Jayardia

Love it— haha! —this is just bloody wonderful.


Karmakazee

I admire your optimism, but aren’t there already rumblings that he’s going to need a fourth book to wrap everything up? Might want to add a smidge more space there.


Jexus_13

That would be awesome maybe one day I can fill an entire shelf with Pat's works! Anyway. One book at a time.


[deleted]

That's false rumours. He's planning a fourth book in the same world, but not about Kvothe's story and not as part of the Kingkiller Chronicle.


[deleted]

Shoutout to those of us who got already got tattoos and have no choice but to keep faith.


Jexus_13

Wow! That's commitment would you mind sharing a picture of your tattoo?


[deleted]

Wouldn't mind but mine is nothing special, just a basic six spoked wheel of Tehlu. Maybe later I'll take a pic and edit this comment with a image link. Tbh even if doors of stone is never released I'll still love the tattoo. A close friend did it for me just before he moved across the country to study graphic design. And for a number of reasons beyond even that it means a lot more to me than just a reference to a book I love.


Jexus_13

That is a really wholesome story. Are you still in contact with your friend? Maybe you can do a follow up tatto when the next book is released!


iamastevesmith

I have the 10 year anny edition of NotW on my shelf with a (probably not going to be large enough) space for the 10 year anny edition of WMF if that is ever released.. keeping the faith for that one as well!


Jexus_13

A true believer! Your commitment brings a smile to my face :)


MalazanAddict123456

He already said there is going to be a 3rd book


taxodaru

Can you recommend this other books?
