Copycat
Book number 7 - hated it, kept expecting it to get better, it never did :(

7/26

[Cassandra]

I love the Song of Ice and Fire books, but they do really get in the way of reading other things!

I know! I'm 5 books behind my challenge already! It took me about 6 weeks to read it, which is less time than it took for me to read book #2. They're so good but so long!

I'm not too worried about being behind since I usually have more time in the summer when there isn't anything on TV.

Just completed my "M" selection - Messenger by Lois Lowry. Much better than the second book in the series. This book seemed to bring the first two books together. Loved the simple message of the outward world reflecting the evil or good within. Definitely worth reading. 4 stars

You're so close to being done, Paul! Way to go.

[Paul Emily]

Thanks Cassandra! I actually just got the last two books of the Farseer Trilogy and World War Z out of the library today, so I should be good for Z at least (Q too if all goes well), and while I couldn't find the book I wanted for Y even though the database told me it was there, I do have another book on my Kindle I can use, plus seeing as I have The Good Women of China on hold as well I can pretty safely say I'll have no trouble being done! I still have half the Book Riot Read Harder Challenge to work through though, so it's not like I'll have nothing else to worry about once I'm through. :)

[Cassandra]

That's perfect! You'll have to let us know what you think about World War Z: An Oral History of the Zombie War.
