Skin Game by Jim Butcher

[Sheri, Bookworm]

We will be starting Monday!

[Leigh, ⚔️ Wonder Woman ⚔️]

How many chapters/day? I have enjoyed this series.

[Sheri, Bookworm]

10 a day? I've enjoyed it, too.

[Sheri, Bookworm]

Holy cow, a lot happens in the first few chapters!

[Sheri, Bookworm]

He's still not hanging out with Maggie.

All the old players in one big game. Nicodemus must be crazy!

[Sheri, Bookworm]

I thought Harry would pick Thomas. He seemed like the obvious choice...

[Leigh, ⚔️ Wonder Woman ⚔️]

I am behind but I will try to catch up today.

[Leigh, ⚔️ Wonder Woman ⚔️]

WTH! Harry has to team up with Nicodemus. Nothing says love like "Yes, I will go to Hell to steal something from Hades while teaming up with Nicodemus, the ultimate sickoo."

[Sheri, Bookworm]

WTH...Michael!

I think this might be my favorite book of the series so far. There is a lot going on, and it's not necessarily all Harry jumping in to save the day.

We stayed up tonight/this morning to watch the meteor shower, so I've been reading to stay awake. I stopped at chapter 32.

[Leigh, ⚔️ Wonder Woman ⚔️]

I missed the meteor shower. School started for my daughter and having both grandbabies in the morning has greatly reduced my reading. I will catch up. I am on chapter 10 now.

[Sheri, Bookworm]

The meteor shower wasn't as fabulous as I was hoping, but we saw a few. My kids don't start school until next week.

Do you think it was because I you live in the city and the lights disturb the show? Hunter, oldest grandson, starts Friday. Having one extra in the morning will take a little time to get use to but they are too cute.

[Sheri, Bookworm]

I figured it was partly because we live in town - but we live kind of on the edge of some farmland, so there are only streetlights on one side of us. The other side is field. But, you could still see the lights of town in the distance, so...

It was still neat to watch.

I wish I would have known about it. I might have stayed up.

[Leigh, ⚔️ Wonder Woman ⚔️]

Nicodemus is stacking the deck with some serious bad guys. WTH! Harry is pregnant with a baby spirit! How does that happen?

[Leigh, ⚔️ Wonder Woman ⚔️]

I was happy to see Michael. I missed him.

Lol!

Grey seems pretty freaky.

Me too. Glad to see him back.

Yes, indeed.

[Leigh, ⚔️ Wonder Woman ⚔️]

Holy Batman(Butters)!

[Sheri, Bookworm]

Gotta love Butters! He's just making the most of it :)

[Leigh, ⚔️ Wonder Woman ⚔️]

I had always liked him. He was trying to take up the slack since Harry and Molly are not leading the charge.

[Sheri, Bookworm]

So you would think Maggie would have some sort of magic. She's got to be about 10 now. I would think Harry would need to start teaching her how it use it soon.

[Leigh, ⚔️ Wonder Woman ⚔️]

Michael gave himself up for Harry and Murphy. WTH!

I am ready for us really to meet Maggie. Yes, she should have some magic.

[Leigh, ⚔️ Wonder Woman ⚔️]

Charity is going to kill Harry for getting Michael involved. I am glad Michael is back as a guardian. Nicodemus was scared just a little.

[Leigh, ⚔️ Wonder Woman ⚔️]

Grey is on Harry's side.

[Leigh, ⚔️ Wonder Woman ⚔️]

Holy Crackers! Butters is wheeling the sword. Harry delivered a baby spirit. WTH!

[Leigh, ⚔️ Wonder Woman ⚔️]

I agree with you, Sheri. This is my favorite book.

[Leigh, ⚔️ Wonder Woman ⚔️]

What are we going to read next week?

[Sheri, Bookworm]

So some interesting things happened in this book. Grey was a surprise. I mean, I was wondering through the whole book what he was exactly... But interesting. And he has Harry's respect now, so maybe we'll see more of him later.

Butters was another surprise. Out of all the people who I would've guessed to have a sword he would not have been one of them. But Murphy never wanted one, and he obviously knows what he's getting himself into. He's shown himself capable so far.

Molly... It will be interesting to see where her character goes.

[Sheri, Bookworm]

We need a new series now. We had talked about the Fever series before, and I think that was one Alyssia wanted to read with us.

Some other series I want to read are women of the otherworld by Kelly Armstrong, the shifter series by Rachel Vincent, Magic bites by Ilona Andrews...

Sorry I'm posting this from my phone so I can't post links. There are more, and I would be open to suggestions.

I loved Butters! I never expected him to take up the sword either. Where was Thomas? Molly seems to be adjusting better than Harry to her new position. Grey was an interesting character. He is like Kincaid. He can be for you or against you. Definitely one to watch.

All of those sound good. Lupi series by Eileen Wilks is very good. It is UF.Tempting Danger is the first one. Karen Chance series is good Touch the Dark another UF with time travel.

[Lys]

I'm trying not to read spoilers, but wanted to say that I am up for anything.
Of the things listed, I think the Magic Bites series was the only one that I had an interest in already, but I am always happy to explore new books. :D

I would definitely be up for that.

[Lys]

Oh, it looks like I also had Touch the Dark as a to-read.

[Sheri, Bookworm]

I would be good with either of those. I think I have the first few already of each of them.

[Leigh, ⚔️ Wonder Woman ⚔️]

Either of them would be fine with me. Somebody pick.

[Leigh, ⚔️ Wonder Woman ⚔️]

I took my daughter, Hannah. to watch . It was so good! I have to finish that series. Have either of you read it?

[Lys]

i'm up for anything!

I read the giver a LONG time ago.
Nothing else though. I don't even really remember it, to be honest.

[Sheri, Bookworm]

I've never read it.

So it sounds like we all want to reach Karen Chance or Ilona Andrews...eeny meeny miny moe?

[Leigh, ⚔️ Wonder Woman ⚔️]

My daughter really enjoyed it. Her class will be reading it.

[Leigh, ⚔️ Wonder Woman ⚔️]

Can we read ? I am on the waiting list for .

[Sheri, Bookworm]

I'm good with that.
