With this tenth post, the #FirstLawAlong is over! The live show for this book already took place at the beginning of September and I miraculously managed to finish the book before the start of the show. I didn’t manage to write and post my review before then, however, which is why I have now procrastinated on it, since the events…

I missed the live show for the ninth and penultimate (!) act in this First Law Along readathon due to other obligations. That’s why I kept putting off writing my review for this book. The live show for the 10th and final book is on September 1st, and although I still have to start reading and therefore have no idea…

Although at the moment I have no idea when the live show for the discussion of this book in the First Law Along will take place, the schedule originally scheduled this book for February-March 2024. With that the previous book was postponed by a month, I thought it likely that this book would also be moved forward. So April became…

While I was almost too late for the live show discussion of the previous book, I finished this one well on time! The show for this book was originally scheduled for February 11, but due to the overcrowded agenda of organizer Becca it was postponed by a month to March 11. Still, I decided to read it right away at…

The First Law Along readathon continues in 2024. This sixth book in the series was scheduled for November/December last year, but I procrastinated on it and only read it in January. Still, in time for the discussion in the live show of January 14, but this of course caused me to postpone writing and publishing my review, since I was…

With this second phase of the FirstLawAlong I feel less urgency to read on, since the next books are only marginally interlinked and can mainly be read as standalone books, albeit in the same world as the original trilogy with cameos from characters we’ve met before. It was a bit difficult to motivate myself to read this second standalone novel…

The next phase of the FirstLawAlong has commenced! After finishing the finale of the first trilogy in June, we are now continuing on with a series of standalone stories in the same world.

After finishing Before They Are Hanged I just couldn’t wait to continue with this series. According to the schedule of the First Law Along readathon the third book is to be read by the end of June, but I already finished it in April. Since this is the third book of the first First Law trilogie, it’s quite possible that…

Tonight is the live show for the second book in the First Law Along readathon. If you don’t know what this is, I talked about this earlier in my Readathons for 2023 post and also in the first update made for this readathon, but in short the plan for this readathon is to read one book from Joe Abercrombie‘s First…

In my post from last week, about my readathon plans for 2023, you could already read that I was joining the Catch-up Book Club’s new readalong, a book club founded by Becca (@BeccaandTheBooks) to read big intimidating series together. The new readalong for 2023 and the first half of 2024 is for all of author Joe Abbercrombie’s books in his…
