Book Finds

Here are some books I've collected over the last few weeks.

Earlier this week I was surprised to find a package from my friend Mickie in my mailbox. She told me the Easter Bunny had mistakenly left my gift at her house. In it I found a copy of BONE SONG by John Meany.

STEELFLOWER by Lilith Saintcrow

MUST LOVE HELLHOUNDS by Charlaine Harris, Nalini Singh, Ilona Andrews and Meljean Brook

WEREWOLF SMACKDOWN by Mario Acevedo

BATTLE OF THE NETWORK ZOMBIES by Mark Henry

DON'T DIE DRAGONFLY by Linda Joy Singleton

DOPPLEGANSTER by Laura Resnick

THE MAGE IN BLACK by Jaye Wells

ANGELOLOGY by Danielle Trussoni

MAGIC BITES by Ilona Andrews
MAGIC BURNS by Ilona Andrews
MAGIC STRIKES by Ilona Andrews

SOULESS by Gail Carriger
CHANGELESS by Gail Carriger

ESCAPEMENT by Jay Lake
PINION by Jay Lake.

MAGIC LOST, TROUBLE FOUND by Lisa Shearin
THE TROUBLE WITH DEMONS by Lisa Shearin

THE BODY FINDER by Kimberly Derting

My March Reads

Three appear to be my magic number. I'm not complaining. I'm a slow reader so I'm thrilled to get in as many stories as I can.

MAGIC IN THE SHADOWS (MPB) by Devon Monk

WHERE ANGELS FEAR TO TREAD (TPB) by Thomas E. Sniegoskie

BONESHAKER (TPB) by Cherie Priest

All are wonderful books. BONESHAKER is my first foray into steampunk and I look forward to more steampunk adventures. Not to mention more books by Priest. I believe FATHOM needs to make it's way to the top of the TBR pile a little quicker than it has this past year. In the mean time I'll be reading some Ilona Andrews and Lili St. Crow/Lilith Saintcrow as they will be at Powell's in May for a reading. I would like to have at least one book from each by them by then.

January Reading Journal


January has a short reading journal.

Completed: RED-HEADED STEPCHILD by Jaye Wells
I enjoyed this book a lot and am looking forward to the April 1st release date of the second book in the series, THE BLACK MAGE. Why does a release date on April first leave me leery?

In the process of reading:
THE DROWNING CITY by Amanda Downum
This is another great read. Aside from the fact I thought the synopsis of this book looked interesting I wasn't sure what to expect. I'm absolutely loving it so far. Not quite halfway through yet.
