Updating Msg 7 - only completed 2 books and it's already October! I guess it's better than none at all...
I read Zipporah, Wife of Moses back in Feb. and finally finished A Discovery of Witches in July, but never posted them. Hope to check off at least a couple more before 2017 is over...

I would've gone with 5 stars for all the literary & historical references, but that very reason made it extra long a just a bit tedious. Great story all in all.
I really want to read Ash and Quill, but I'll probably have to wait awhile before I'll be able to get it from the library😩
