Allison is 24% done with Dead Until Dark (Sookie Stackhouse, #1)

Somehow I feel like I'm reading Twilight except in the South, and it's not the vampire who reads minds. If we have too many more 'getting to know you' conversations, I'll expect more sparkle from the cold one. He's only glowing so far.

Thank God I'm liking this! I've had a run of crap lately and was afraid all the books had turned boring.

Allison is 25% done with The Sweetness at the Bottom of the Pie (Flavia de Luce, #1)

I read a bit more and I'm still not feeling it. On to the abandoned shelf it goes!

This is kind of boring. I'm past the 50 page mark, so may decide to DNF at any time.

Allison is finished with Days of Blood & Starlight (Daughter of Smoke & Bone, #2)

Death, death, death, and a cliffhanger. I suppose that means I'm in for book 3.

Ok, never mind. Forget hope. It's all just death.

Starting to see some glimmers of hope. I think change is coming!

Sad and dark so far

Now that's what I'm talking about! That was awesome.

I haven't had enough time to read the last couple of days. Hopefully I'm on track to finish this weekend!

Things are starting to come together. The action is heating up!

Shallan is making me so nervous! I feel like I'm reading Crime & Punishment again.

Poor Dalinar. Even his own sons think he's lost it.

After a couple of really intense scenes, I think I'm getting past the intro.

Slowly, slowly building. I'm still trying to keep names straight at this point.

Starting to get into it. I finally had time to read more than a couple chapters at once!

Allison is 80% done with StarCrossed (Thief Errant #1)

I'm glad I stuck with this beyond the 50 page minimum before giving up - it was 200 pages before it got interesting. I'm really into it now!

It's hard to root for a main character who has no loyalty at all, and is betraying the people she should be working with. I understand her, but I don't like her.

Still bored. I'll give it a bit longer and then I'm moving on.

This seems like something I should be eating up, but I'm struggling to keep my attention on it so far.

That is not at all what I was expecting

I'm hoping to skim the last 125 pages in about half an hour today

"...knowing that she was about to be changed forever by a wizard's power... when a wizard changed a person in such a way, there could be no going back. Such changes could not be reversed" ~ This is just one example of the redundancy in this book. It's been like this pretty much all the way through so far. I have to skim or my mind just starts to wander.

I do wish Goodkind wouldn't go on and on, detailing every possible implication of every thought. I can get there myself. I'd forgotten this aspect of his writing. Other than those tedious parts, I think this has potential.

Allison is 76% done with Urban Shaman (Walker Papers, #1)

I'm annoyed that work is getting in the way of me finishing this... soon, soon. It's way more mystical than other UFs I've read (makes sense because, you know, the title does mention it's about a Shaman). I think it's growing on me.
