The Lions of Al-Rassan is also a really good book.

What Tom said!

[Sandy]

I'm reading a fantasy paranormal Witches of Ash and Ruin by E. Latimer]. It is geared for Young Adults but has kept my interest and takes place in rural Ireland.

[Janette]

I've finished Pearl of Fire and now reading Realm Breaker

[Elise]

I finished The Luminous Dead. Ultimately was disappointing to me. It wasn't what I expected.

Now starting on Nolyn.

[Mary]

Greece Against Rome: The Fall of the Hellenistic Kingdoms 250-31 BC by Philip Matyszak

[Joseph]

On to The A'Rak, the final Nifft the Lean book.

[Elise]

Finished Storm of Locusts. Another great and fun time. Now I've started The Empire's Ruin. This is going to take me a while lol.

[Tnkw01]

Finished Vengeance. 3.5 stars but not really a 4 so it gets a 3. The story is really good but the ending, well it kind of sucked. While the ending was original it was not very satisfying. I can't decide if I want to continue the series or not. I'll have to think about it. Now I'm reading Junkyard Bargain.

[Joseph]

Started Joan Haste, another of H. Rider Haggard's Victorian romance/melodrama novels.

[Mary]

Explorer of the Endless Sea by Jack Campbell

[Tnkw01]

Finished Junkyard Bargain. I actually loved it. It gets 5 stars. Staring The Mirror of Her Dreams.

[Sandy]

I got The Last Druid by Terry Brooks, the last book in the series. Bittersweet read, I think

[Marc]

I finished a book I started a long time ago, called The Lady Next Door, A ghost story paranormal romance. It was good as I expect most stories from this author to be. My wife recently got me a book called Honor at Stake for our anniversary. Book one of four, so hopefully it will be fun.
I tried to read Mistborn: The Final Empire, couldn't get into it. Also started a book called Mist, by Susan Krinard, but they don't have a link for it here. The idea is that the Valkyries are given custody of 9 treasures of Asgard before the final battle, and they still have them today. I didn't get far into it, like most books nowadays this one didn't drag me in either but I'm willing to push it for a bit.
I wish more fantasy authors could write books as engaging as the In Death series.

[Janette]

The Witness for the Dead This has finally arrived and so will be starting it today. Goblin Emperor was one of my favourite books of 2019 and I am really looking forward to this one.

[Joseph]

SF time again: Started Consider Phlebas by Iain M. Banks.

I loved Goblin Emperor as well! Such a good book

[Mary]

The Lost Art of Dress: The Women Who Once Made America Stylish by Linda Przybyszewski

[Elise]

My July wrap up. Only got two read this time. Almost finished another, but didn't quite make it.

The Luminous Dead ★★★
Storm of Locusts ★★★★★

[Mary]

Well, it's August, but until the next thread is up:
The Great Sea: A Human History of the Mediterranean by David Abulafia

[Tnkw01]

3 stars. Finished The Mirror of Her Dreams. It was a stylish read. Very elegantly written but it was kind of boring in places. The MC was annoying and there were weird or despicable characters. The plot, however, was interesting. The ending was like stopping in the middle of a book. some might call it a cliff hanger. I call it annoying.
