I've been lucky to have been both reading and listening to some fantastic novels.
How Hard Can It Be?
Wild One (Born Wild, #1) by Donna Augustine
Year One (Chronicles of The One, #1) by Nora Roberts
The Darkest Warrior (Lords of the Underworld, #14) by Gena Showalter
Upstate by James Wood
Untamed Cowboy (Gold Valley, #2) by Maisey Yates
That's my reading list for the last week or so


What have you all been reading?

Christine Hatfield  (christinesbookshelves) | 4181 comments I'm reading a book called Say Nothing by Brad Parks and it's very good

Ang from OZ | 1690 comments Deb, I have the Nora Roberts sitting on my bookshelf. I used to be a die hard Showalter fan, but I think a few years back she lost her mojo. Haven't read anything from her in awhile.

yeah I can see that Ang. I have to give myself a long break and then go back and sometimes that cures my indifference, but then sometimes it also verifies my needing to move on too. ;-)

I have to say that Year One is FABULOUS! It's apocalyptic fiction at its finest. Dark and light with a bit of romance of course

Kamas Kirian (kamas716) | 928 comments I finally finished The Dig. It was entertaining, I'm looking forward to reading more in the series.

I'm just starting The Catcher Was a Spy: The Mysterious Life of Moe Berg. I first heard about him a couple of decades ago, I think from one of the Jay Johnstone books but not positive. It was years ago and the little things are slipping my mind.

Oh wow Kamas we read Michael's Exigency as a group read back in 2015. Did you read it with us Kamas I don't remember?
I just read the premise for the book/series looks right up my alley. Thanks for sharing!

Right now I'm just finishing up Dark Rhapsody by Helaine Mario it's a sequel to her The Lost Concerto very good mystery/thriller

I'm listening toRed Sister Red Sister (Book of the Ancestor, #1) by Mark Lawrence
It's the first book in an epic fantasy trilogy so a lot of things to learn. I love the author but I think this is the only book so far that I prefer in the print format. A Bit tedious in audible

No. No, I didn't read that with you guys. Don't remember if I was showing up here then or not. This is the first of his books that I've read.

Ang from OZ | 1690 comments Christine do you think you'll make 100 by Christmas?? I'm sure you can!
Been a slack reading year for me so far, too much stress and drama in my life for me to be able to sit down, relax and read.

message 1639: by Ang from OZ (new)

Ang from OZ | 1690 comments Deb, maybe we could do it as a read? Get JT to join in if she has the time? Might be just what I need to kick me back into some reading!

She would do it even if she didn't have time. I know she's going on tour but she was on tour during our last read.

I just messaged tarheelgirl telling her we missed her and letting her know we're thinking of reading JT's book.

I'll do post and see who would be interested. I'll reach out to April too.

here's a link to my review-https://www.goodreads.com/review/show...
