Yeah didn't really pay attention to that. It was highly recommended so I just downloaded the library kindle copy and started reading :)

We will be reading
Beowulf: A New Verse Translationto start with in one class.
Then in another I am taking Science Fiction and we will be reading
Do Androids Dream of Electric Sheep?Oryx and Crake
Neuromancer
just to name a few.
for fun I am reading
The Titan's Curse
I had a list of books for this month but I want to finish this series.


I need to read this one."
It's one of those hard to put down series

That is funny!!
I did enjoy that book but I have been slow to start The Wise Man's Fear

I've been slow starting the series the Day One thing scares me its like thats way to many pages for one day. I have owned the first book since it came out in paperback a year or so ago. Hope to get to it soon.

Don't be daunted by the page count. It is "day one" but day one of him telling his life story so alot does happen in "day one". It is so good.

Ill have to give it a try after this semester as its required reading intensive lots of novels. So not alot of time for fun :(



I stopped at four :( the romance just got to me uugh"
I love this series! This will be the third time reading the first 4 books. I'm doing a re-read so I can finally catch up on the series. Sorry it didn't work for you.

I know what you mean the first three books were like four star then it just started to fall off.
But I am looking forward to the next one I think with all of her new series I am hoping for an infusion of excitement :-)



I really like Felix but someone I have fallen behind with his series.




Getting ready to start


Those are two of my favorites! We must have similar taste!

I LOVED both Daughter of Smoke & Bone and Onion Girl. Theare also 2 of my favourties. I don't know the Rook though.


I really liked that one! It may not be the most beautiful prose ever to hit shelves, but I've read several in that series (I think I'm on 5 or 6 now) and they're consistently enjoyable, and the characters are still interesting.
I'm currently reading

I've heard lots of good things about it and so far I'm enjoying it.

I guess my tastes are pretty eclectic. I gave them both 5 stars. I like my sex scenes intense, and Kayla does that very well.
I like my fantasy with a twist of the paranormal and Chris Shields did a fabulous job on The Steward.
I will be on to "Locked in Torture" by Kayla, which is Torture fantasy BDSM, and then I'll jump track back to Chris for the second installment in his fantasy series, "The Changeling".
Good Stuff. Check em out.



Realising I prefer to read series straight through. I have already forgotten a lot of details from the former books.





I like Remy Chandler. I've seen very, very few people reading this series.


I'm really liking

Also working on

I'm having an awesome book year so far!

I am glad to hear it. It was one of my iffy books.




Love Remy Chandler, cannot wait for the next book in the series to come out :)

I just finished
The Exiled Queen
70 pages left in A Game of Thrones half way through with The Titan's Curse 100 pages left in Switched and just started getting into Beautiful Creatures. none of which were on my list for this month.



thats the last one I read but I own all the way up to five when they were saying five was the last and then ofcourse it wasnt because it wasnt long before another came out which means she was already writing it smh. I hate when publishers and authors do that I think it put me off a little as well as the romance was getting icky.
maybe I will start reading it again you seem to be enjoying them.



If you can make it through the first few chapters and the monotonous explanations of everything on the internet, it's really enjoyable so far!


I really enjoyed that book, although in a way it was much more depressing than I expected. Many of the gamer references were probably lost on me, but any book that involves a discussion of 'Ladyhawke' is a keeper in my book.





I know the feeling. The best laid plans of mice and men...


I listened to the audiobook version of this one with my husband during a long road trip. He LOVED it and I kind of hated it, which is weird considering I'm the gamer out of the two of us! I thought Wade was kind of a putz :|




maybe I will start reading it again you seem to be enjoying them...."
I would give them another try. I read the first five books, but never got another to reading the latest one. That is why I am doing a re-read and I'm very much enjoying them again.
