Please let me know how you like it! I love Lisa Gardner's books but haven't read that one yet.

A group of elderly people receive anonymous phone calls reminding them they're going to die. The novel wasn't at all bleak or morbid. It was humorous, with authentic characters, and wonderful dialogue.
My review: https://www.goodreads.com/review/show...

Set far in the future, a spaceship that works as an ambulance finds two ships that are interlocked together. One is very old, one is newer, each holding species that are not compatible (meaning if exposed to each other, they would both die). The story is surrounding the mystery of why they are connected and how it came to be. Really interesting, though I've been reading it fairly slowly. It isn't my typical genera, but I'm still enjoying it!

Then she was gone by Lisa Jewell
Loving it"
I agree, Lisa Jewell is such an interesting writer. 'I Found You' is another great (and poignant) Jewell read.



A quiet novel about a quiet hero. Absolutely brilliant. I had not heard of it until recently. It's a classic to be savored.

Just started Irish Gothic by Ronald Kelly;
https://www.goodreads.com/book/show/5...

I thought it was wonderfully profound and insightful little bits of fictional phenomenology and contemporary philosophy but in the form of a man's life and observations, brief but poignant!
Currently reading Rothfuss': The Wise Man's Fear The Wise Man's Fear
I am constantly torn between putting it aside so that I can finish it closer to the release of the final King Killer Chronicle installation or plowing through it because the story and its characters are amazing and make you beg for more with every one of its 1,000 pages!
Also just finished final edits to my next book: Alethea's Dreams Alethea's Dreams
I started sending out ARC's to my readers today! Wish me luck <3



Wait. Maybe, "enjoying" is the wrong word. Maybe a more accurate description would be, "collecting an entirely new dimension's worth of horrific visual pageantry to be tormented by the next time I let hippies feed me a mushroom pizza at a Grateful Dead concert."
