I'll be reading The Blinding Knife I think. I think I need to remember what happened in The Black Prism first.

I tried to read that. Couldn't get through it. I'm reading a lot of non fantasy right now. But plan to read Red Moon. Sounds pretty good even though I'm not that crazy about werewolves.
I am over halfway through
by J.W. Kent, a fun and bawdy low fantasy. It is making me laugh and smile all the while.
Currently reading 'Falling Kingdoms' by Morgan Rhodes. Might be reading 'The Godling Chronicles' by Brian D. Anderson this month.

The Name of the WindI had to know what happened next!
Almost done with Fool's Errand and will likely move on to Golden Fool afterward. Still struggling to even want to pick SW:Allies back up.
Finished Scourge of the Betrayer, which was excellent, and started another Night Shade book, Miserere: An Autumn Tale by Teresa Frohock.
Jonathan Strange & Mr NorrellI´m enjoying it, it´s a really good book
and
Susannah Morrow
and trying to re-read Splintered but it´s not going well
I'm reading Brandon Sanderson's "The Way of Kings", and I'm about 320 pages in and really enjoying it!

Nice choices! A Song of Ice and Fire slows down a lot after Storm of Swords, but it's still worth continuing the series.

Interesting how some of us can go through a particular book easily, while others are stumped.
:)
To each his/her own.
I'm neutral on werewolves.....I just don't like too much descriptive violence.
Let me know your opinion on Red Moon...maybe I'll add it.

Kk. Will do. Princes just didn't hold my interest.
Finished (and highly recommend) Miserere: An Autumn Tale and, because it seemed appropriate, started The Best of Robert E. Howard: Crimson Shadows.
Finished Endymion yesterday. Could have been better. I was a little bit reluctant, but I decided I might as well finish the series since I got this far. So, The Rise of Endymion it is.
currently nothingthere´s lots of books on my "on-hold" list, though, none particularly interesting
I wold rather read "nothing" than "anything"

I have a friend like that too.She won't read anything unless she thinks it might be really interesting.
I'm the complete opposite I'll read anything just to be reading something,books magazines, the label on the mustard jar..anything.
I'm reading the Dragonlance: The War of Souls omnibus. First time reading D&D and I am not disappointed.

For me, I'm going with a classic that I missed: The Black Company
Finished The Best of Robert E. Howard: Crimson Shadows and, you guessed it, started The Best of Robert E. Howard: Grim Lands.

Finished The Best of Robert E. Howard: Grim Lands and went for something completely different with Phoenix Rising by Philippa Ballantine and Tee Morris.
Tomorrow I'll finish A Memory of Light. I've only approx. 140 iBook pages left to go. I began this epic in November 2012 for the very first time, happily knowing that I could read it in its entirety from beginning to end with the generosity and guidance of Harriet McDougal Rigney and the incredible writing of both Robert Jordan (a.k.a.: James Oliver Rigney) and Brandon Sanderson. Now, I'm saddened to know that this incredible story is at an end. While I'm quite okay with the story's finality, these novels have been my consummate reading for the past 8 months. Why did it take so long for me to complete the series? Because during the school year I don't have the time I do in the summer months to read endlessly. So, after tomorrow's final chapters, my next anticipated read is Guy Gavriel Kay's, River of Stars. If only I could somehow earn a wage while reading books between Summer Solstice and the beginning of the school year in the third week of August!
