[Niki Hawkes, I made it past GOTM... barely]

Good luck! You have some of my favs in your incomplete. :)

[Elizabeth]

Thanks Niki! I'm excited about them. My goal is to get caught up on Mercy/Alpha and Omega by the time the BR for the new one starts. I'm also currently re-reading Mistborn before I continue that one. I'm definitely going to need to reread Malazan and Wheel of Time too.

Malazan is on my docket this year too. Although I've been saying that for at least three years. I'm looking forward to hearing your thoughts on Fair Game - it was my fav of Alpha/Omega. :)

[Elizabeth]

Fair Game was actually my last book of 2020. It was my favorite Alpha/Omega.

BRs for Malazan?

Sweet! That one really sang to me too. ^_^

That would be cool. I've been stalling on continuing the second one for a couple years now, and I finally made time for it this month starting next week. There has been a bunch of interest in the BR thread so I wouldn't be surprised if everyone else starts reading it Feb or March. I don't want to wait because it's momentous that I'm actually getting going on it lol. I'd love to link up on the third one though if it lines up.

[Elizabeth]

Not sure when I'll start that one. It's low on my priority list, if it works out I'll join in.
