I'm not going to make my reading goal this year either. I'd need to finish the book I'm reading, plus read another 20 books. I don't think that's going to happen before the end of the month. Some of the books I read have been kind of long, so that hasn't helped. But I also lost a lot of reading time to life stuff I've been dealing with. I'm not bothering to change the number on my challenge goal though. I'll just leave it as is, and admit I didn't make it.
My November 2018 book review post is up on my blog. If you want to see what I read in November, check out the post here: https://ziglernews.blogspot.com/2018/...

I really liked Spellcaster as well! I have yet to read the rest of the trilogy, hopefully I will soon!

I finished November with reading 17 books! Since some of them were huge I think I did really great. My Tome Topple really suffered the last few days though!
I finished my reread of
and it was fantastic! I love this series so far, hoping to read Lord of Shadows soon.
I also finished
because I needed to read another retelling for a challenge. This is a modern day Pride and Prejudice. I liked the story and the romance was cute, but the street slang about did me in. The same words used over and over and over again gets so tiresome. I know that's a teenager's world, but still. I rated it 3 stars.
And finally I finished
!!! This was a really good ending to the series. I started this series in 2009 I think, so I'm thrilled to have finally finished it! I'm terrible at finishing series, as most of you probably know! I rated this one 4 stars.
I'm still reading
I'm afraid I've started to get a bit bored. I like the series best when we are discovering things of the past, places and objects and people. Right now its a personal family drama thing that's happening, and its just not what I want to read about I guess. I'm hoping I will finish this book by the end of the year, I'm just going to go slow.
I started
which I've been wanting to read for a long while, and so far I'm loving it! Its a historical fiction researching a mystery that happened on the fateful last voyage of the Lusitania. Its told from 3 POVs: Sarah, who is is a modern day author researching the mystery; Caroline who was a first class passenger on the ship; and Tess, who is a 2nd class passenger and a con artist.

I started
on audio but also on Kindle. I bought books 2 and 3 on Kindle because I heard it's a cliffhanger. Good post-apocalypse thriller!

hmm.. I read the alhemist series years ago, I hated\disliked the way it ended. I just thought it was too confusing and stuff. Each to his own. Glad you enjoyed it.

I used to have that series issue. That's why I now try to read as many of the books in a series as I can back to back. It's not a fool-proof method, but it's helped me finish a couple of series.
Also, great you read so many books in November!

I'm starting Christmasy reads as soon as I finish the book I'm reading now, which is David's latest release, Star-Born Mage (I'd have finished that last night, but I got so tired I had no choice but to put it down and sleep... Planning to read the last couple of chapters tonight).

I'm reading
on my Kindle, and listening to
on audible.
Both are good, but Broken Lands is amazing!! It's a continuation of the Rot and Ruin series! I'm so happy the author decided to jump back into this world. 😬

Oh, and I have so many new print books from Advent book exchange with Jenny and Jen, that I have 4 or 5 that I want to read and can't decide. I need to take a picture of all of them and then pick one or two! I'll post the photo here when I get a chance! 😍
