Hello darlings!
This is the 2nd week of #5OnMyTBR and my excitement is still blazing!! Thank you so much for participating last week! I tried to visit each post and I hope I haven’t missed anybody.
Let’s have fun again this week!
#5OnMyTBR is a bookish meme hosted by E. @ Local Bee Hunter’s Nook (me!) and you can learn more about it here or in the post announcing it. It occurs every Monday when we post about 5 books on our TBR.
This week’s prompt is Humour!
|| Discworld by Terry Pratchett ||
💛 a series
💛 composed of more series
💛 super funny
💛 amazing worldbuilding AND characters
💛 a classic of fantasy
I already read the Tiffany Aching series and I’m not sure what part to pick up next but I WILL read every book even if it takes me YEARS to finish. I am commited already.
|| The Hitchhiker’s Guide to the Galaxy by Douglas Adams ||
💛 another classic
💛 this guy also wrote Doctor Who and Dirk Gently
💛 my brother bought me this book
My brother bought me this book for Christmas (2 years ago?) and it’s been sitting on my shelf for a long time because I’ve been avoiding physical books for some reason but I will read it this year. I will.
The whole series, hopefully.
|| The Tyrant’s Tomb by Rick Riordan ||
💛 Percy Jackson Universe
💛 bi MC
💛 I’ve been in the middle of this series for a while now?
So, I should probably get back to this series?
I mean, the last book I read had quite a sad ending but there’s still lots of humour in Riordan’s writing so I’m putting it here.
Excited to see Renya again!!
|| Kill the Boy Band by Goldy Moldavsky ||
💛 accidental kidnaping
💛 badass girls
💛 fandom and celebrities
So, a bunch of girls want to get closer to their beloved boy band and then they accidently kidnap one of the boys.
I wanted to read it for a while. It sounds absolutely hilarious and chaotic and I need it!
|| Beware the Kitten Holy by Noelle Stevenson ||
💛 LGBT+ rep
💛 girl gang
💛 adventure
💛 graphic novel
I wanted to pick up Lumberjanes comics for AGES!! I even listened to some novelization this year? But I gather the graphic novel series is the main series.
Anyway! Badass girls going on adventures and friendship to the max!
Last thought!
I hope you guys are having fun this week! Happy Prima Aprilis day to everyone!
I’ve chosen this prompt because of the event but I also hope it will lighten the mood and bring you some much needed laughs! Stay safe out there!
Also! If you have any sugestions for the May prompts — leave them in the comments below! I want to list them at the beginning of April so you guys have as much time as possible to prepare!
