It is time for another if you liked this. This time I have some more popular books paired with books that I don’t hear quite as much about. Because they are newer releases, older or just not as picked up in the blogging community. Just five again so that I don’t overcrowd you.
Is there a specific theme you’d like me to do with these in the future?

Why
A very different world but I feel that the writing and the feel are quite similiar. Both Novik and Hartman know how to write strong women.
Why
When I read Grace and Fury it immediately reminded me of Red Queen. There is a similiar feel in world and characters there that will appeal to fans of Red Queen I think
The Farseers Trilogy // Memory, Sorrow and Thorn
Why
While Memory, Sorrow and Thorn is the older of the series I feel that people are more inclined to keep talking about Hobb than about Williams in today’s fantasy reading community. Which is a shame because as far as classic fantasies go, Memory, Sorrow and Thorn is quite entertaining. It has the same epic qualities that the Farseers has, although in a bit of an older get up.
A Monster Calls // I Kill Giants
Why
I Kill Giants might be a graphic novel but it has the same emotional qualities as A Monster Calls has. A child dealing with grief in their own way, acting out.
The Bear and the Nightingale // The Beast is an Animal
Why
Both have similiar themes where spiritual and old traditions are set against religion. Those that are different are set apart from society just for being who they are.
I loved A Monster Calls! I’ll have to check out your recommendation. I haven’t heard of that book.

I hadn’t heard of it either until my friend gifted it to me but it was a great read as well.

Oh I love this!
I really enjoyed Seraphina, so I guess I need to try some Naomi Novik. I love the Farseer trilogy and have the Dragonbone Chair on my TBR.
