Alright i have finished two books -one of the main quests for the BARD and one Side quest.

I didn't actually want to start withMedici - Die Macht des Geldes and Medici - Die Kunst der Intrige but i just got the notice that i have to give them back to my library so i jumped ahead in the main quest book list and read the forth one instead of the first one.

Can't say i would recommend either of those books since i didn't enjoy them and think there are way better books out there about the time and place and about the Medici family.


But now that those are read i going back to the actual order of how i should/want to read them in and starting on The Gunslinger

(Hope that still counts?)

18/8 - finished The Gunslinger, which was not as mind blowing as i remembered it being from years ago but still a good read!

[Dawnie]

20/8 -finished another side quest - time wrap- with My Map Of You overall an okay book, not the best but certainly not the worst book and pretty good for a dramatic romance book.

[Dawnie]

22/8 - finished A Court of Thorns and Roses which made me hate Tamlin even more (did NOT think that would be possible!) but still loved the writing even if i still strongly dislike a lot of the actual story and plot of this first book.


Also the next update will be next week since i will be away for a week without any internet access.

31/8 - finished re-reading Every Heart a Doorway and HIGHLY recommend reading or re-reading this book after reading Down Among the Sticks and Bones! Knowing Jack and Jill better makes all the difference while reading Every heart a doorway and i really, really enjoyed that re-read!
