Just finished the 2nd book in the Witchland series - Windwitch by Susan Dennard. Overall, I liked this book and will keep reading the series. However, there were some major issues particularly at the beginning. There's a big difference between the author keeping the reveal secret from her audience and not being able to convey her key plot points. I felt there was a lot left unsaid in the book that made it much more difficult to enjoy. It got better towards the end, and I am still invested in reading the next book. Worth reading. 3.5 stars

I have modified messege 301 slightly. I added 2 series I will finish, so that now becomes 9 for the year. And I have swapped Department Q by Jussi Adler-Olsen from a series start to finish to just a Book 1 and U.S. Civil War by Harold Coyle from just a book 1 to a series from start to finish. I dropped the number of books in series currently reading by 1 so the overall total is still 63. I have about 5 other series I am close to finishing and may add them later on, but I want to see how I am doing with these 63 first.

Still at 24/63
