1. Best Book You Read in 2021?Easily Malice by John Gwynne
2. Book you were excited about and thought you were going to love more but didn't?The Gunslinger by Stephen King. I've enjoyed most Stephen King books and I thought a fantasy by Stephen King would be great, but this was just so so boring and I didn't enjoy it at all.
3. Most surprising (in a good way) book you read?Traitor's Blade by Sebastian de Castell or Ship of Magic by Robin Hobb. I enjoyed both of these books wayyyy more than I ever thought I would.
