Someone at church bought me that book! Since I'm in the middle of A Storm of Swords, I gave it to my mom to read while she recovered from surgery. I don't know if she had a chance to read it, but I should ask. I really want to read it!

Just completed my selection for "H" - The Lost Hero by Rick Riordan. While I appreciate the complex world that Riordan has built, I was a little irritated to start reading and realize that this book built on the Percy Jackson series. I kept reading to finish the book but now have to go back and finish the Jackson series to truly understand everything that occurred in the book. I enjoyed the suspense built in for the rest of this series. 3.5 stars

Just read book number 5 - I am enjoying my new reading habit.
My fifth book was The Girl on the Train by Paula Hawkins.
I was unsure to begin, but once into the lull of the train commutes I began to enjoy it. Well written and with twists and turns all the way from London to Witney :)
