Allison is 47% done with Fortune's Pawn (Paradox, #1)

Things are getting more mysterious, which means I'm moving beyond the mundane life of a merc in space.

Allison is 28% done with Fortune's Pawn (Paradox, #1)

I managed to sneak in a bit of reading time over my lunch break, and it's getting more interesting. I'm actually looking forward to getting back to this tonight!

Allison is 22% done with Fortune's Pawn (Paradox, #1)

This hasn't really grabbed me yet. But reading time has been limited this week, so that could still change.

Allison is 12% done with Wolf Hall (Thomas Cromwell, #1)

I'm really not feeling this, and it's mainly the writing style. I can't take it. Over 60 pgs is enough - goodbye.

Allison is 10% done with Wolf Hall (Thomas Cromwell, #1)

This is boring so far. I'm not sure I like the writing style either.

Allison is 23% done with Insurgent (Divergent, #2)

That's 2 things that Tris has decided to keep from Tobias so far. This can't be good.

Allison is 17% done with The Mediterranean Caper (Dirk Pitt, #2)

Wow, by the end of chapter 2, Pitt slaps a lady in the face for mourning her dead husband for 8 years to 'snap her out of it,' then seduces her for her own good.

I really like Ronsarde. I'm hoping he turns out to be a good guy

The plot thickens! I'm finally managing to get into this properly, but it's not the book's fault it's taken so long.

Allison is 15% done with The Death of the Necromancer (Ile-Rien, #2)

Reading time has been kind of sparse this week. I feel like I've been on the intro of this for days.

Allison is 19% done with The No. 1 Ladies' Detective Agency

This is like listening to an old geezer's rambling stories, somehow related in his mind but not apparent to everyone else.

Allison is 85% done with Steel's Edge (The Edge, #4)

I'm going to be sad there's not another book, aren't I?

That was such a sad start :(

Allison is 63% done with Cast in Courtlight (Chronicles of Elantra, #2)

This is kind of meandering and there's a lot of talking, even when there's action.

I'm enjoying being back in this world, and understanding a lot more now that I have the world-building behind me.

Allison is 64% done with Living Dead in Dallas (Sookie Stackhouse, #2)

There's more action in this than the first. I still don't feel anything for Bill. I still wonder why not Sam. I still don't know enough about Eric to feel anything about him either.

Living Dead in Dallas (Sookie Stackhouse, #2)

Allison is 23% done with The Girl Who Circumnavigated Fairyland in a Ship of Her Own Making (Fairyland, #1)

Enjoying so far. Imaginative and slightly bizarre, and the descriptions are vivid. The soap lady was really cool. I would have loved to read this as a kid.

Allison is 91% done with The Dirty Streets of Heaven (Bobby Dollar, #1)

The final 1/4 has picked up. I'm glad I stuck it out, but it took way too long to get interesting.

It's a struggle to come back to this after taking a break for a buddy read. I really didn't miss it - forgot I was right in the middle of it, actually.

Allison is starting The Kiss of a Stranger

My brain is totally fried from work and I need a complete fluff book tonight. Cue nice, predictable Regency Romance.
