2014’s Top Reads, House of the Dragon S2 Hype, and Book News!

House of the Dragon Premieres Tonight!
We are finally here! The premiere of House of the Dragon season 2 is tonight. I’m a little nervous, but I’m excited. I don’t know which characters will live or die. I don’t know if any will die in the first episode, but I will always be prepared for anything in the world of A Song of Ice and Fire. I bought Fire & Blood a few months ago, thinking I might read it before this season premiered. Well…that did not happen. Maybe after the season. Maybe.
Will you be watching tonight?
Goodreads Most Popular 2014
Let’s take a nostalgic trip back to 2014. I decided to look up the most popular books on Goodreads from a decade ago, and I’ve read 5 of them. And I learned a few things:
Red Rising was an emotional rollercoaster, and I now love that series.
I discovered that I love Celeste Ng’s writing.
I realized Colleen Hoover is not for me.
I didn’t get the hype of We Were Liars.
The To All the Boys I've Loved Before is better than the movie, but both are cute.
Here are the Top 10 Books:
All the Light We Cannot See by Anthony Doer
Ugly Love by Colleen Hoover
We Were Liars by E. Lockhart
To All the Boys I've Loved Before by Jenny Han
Milk and Honey by Rupi Kaur
Red Rising by Pierce Brown
Yes Please by Amy Poehler
Everything I Never Told You by Celeste Ng
Archer’s Voice by Mia Sheridan
Zero to One: Notes on Startups, or How to Build the Future by Peter Thiel & Blake Masters
