I’m going to let you in on a secret—I have a lot of books.
Jk, everyone knows that, even your dog, who can probably hear the floor joists in my house screaming for help. My house is full to the rafters with books. Having lots of books is not for everyone, but I love it. It’s my aesthetic, my dream come true. I am the daughter of a librarian and bookseller; I always wanted my own library growing up, and now I have one. I even have a retired library card catalog, and last week I was gifted an old library cart!
So, you get it: I have a lot of books. Sometimes, I forget what I have, and that sounds bad, which it is because I am getting older, but it’s also exciting! Because then I can peruse my shelves and it’s like, “Ooooo, what’s this?”
Such is the case with the books below. The other day, I was thinking that I should read a bit more sci-fi and fantasy backlist, so I went upstairs and pulled these titles from the stacks to read next. Two of them I know I bought for the title, one I definitely bought for the cover, and the other two must have followed me home somehow. Have you read any of these? Which would you read first?

Okay, star bits, now take the knowledge you have learned here today and use it for good, not evil. If you want to know more about books, I talk about books pretty much nonstop (when I’m not reading them), and you can hear me say lots of adjectives about them on the BR podcast All the Books! and on Instagram.
