Condensation Posted October 7, 2020 Report Share Posted October 7, 2020 I'm rereading Tiger's Curse, it's an awesome series by Colleen Houck. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
+Slowswift Posted October 8, 2020 Report Share Posted October 8, 2020 (edited) Quick check-in to add something: This book (Symphony for the City of the Dead) is good, but it is by no means lighthearted. The book follows Shostakovich during the early USSR, which is just as brutal as you might expect. There's nothing too graphic as yet, but neither will you be singing about sunshine and flowers. I'm glad that the author does wax witty at points, because yikes. Edited October 8, 2020 by Slowswift Added title for context 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I picked up the first book from the library on a whim while browsing the shelves, and by the end of it I was hooked. These characters are my children. Fun fact: the author of that series attended the same middle school I did. He came and did a signing for at least the first two. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

aneonfoxtribute Posted October 11, 2020 Report Share Posted October 11, 2020 I'm reading Remember11. It's a visual novel, but I'm reading it so I put it here 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Briar King Posted October 11, 2020 Report Share Posted October 11, 2020 Only on ch 2 of Battle Ground realize each night I attempt to make progress I’m just not in the right place to properly do Dresden. I only have like an hour to read over here and I wind up putting it down for WH40K. When I get home I will devour Dresden for sure. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dunkum Posted October 11, 2020 Report Share Posted October 11, 2020 Just finished The Gathering Storm on my WoT reread, and got a couple chapters into Towers of Midnight, but then I saw that my Library hold on Battle Ground had come in, so now Towers of Midnight is on hold so I can blitz through Battle Ground (helps that its a dreary day today and tomorrow is a holiday, so I should be able to speed through it). just as Glad I hadnt gotten any further in, but now I'm wishing I'd checked my email earlier so I wouldnt have started Towers of midnight in the first place. I don't much like reading mutliple series at once, let alone multiple books. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Draginon Posted October 12, 2020 Report Share Posted October 12, 2020 I took my time reading Evil Thing: A Story id That Devil Woman. I can read these books in one sitting but Cruella isn’t something I wanted to read in one sitting. Her reason for becoming evil is interesting in this interpretation. All the previous villains were evil because of their parents and it’s half true here since she just wanted her mother’s love but her mother wasn’t interested in any relationship with her, she just wanted the money the father left to Cruella, and after Cruella’s husband died the mother was concerned about Cruella’s sanity, mostly because of the social appearance, and when Cruella told her about the coat her mother was actually horrified. What also made this book interesting is it’s written as a memoir, so we get Cruella’s thoughts, but the afterword also shows that the author herself went to Hell Hall and the way that’s written it makes me wonder if the story is supposed to be contemporary or if Cruella has been locked up in there since the 70’s, when the film came out. Now onto something new and I wanted something with no strings attached ie a stand-alone, so I’m going to read Warriors of the Altaii. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

NottTheBrave Posted October 14, 2020 Report Share Posted October 14, 2020 I read Dresden Files: Grave Peril all in one day last night. Burned through the whole thing, totally sucked in. LOVED it. Started Summer Knight too. I'll probably read it all day today as well! 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

StormingTexan Posted October 14, 2020 Report Share Posted October 14, 2020 After my Stormlight re-read these Dresden books seem so quick. I read the first one in a couple days and almost finished Fool Moon. I like them so far. I have been told the series really picks up with book three so looking forward to that. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Draginon Posted October 14, 2020 Report Share Posted October 14, 2020 I’ve only read the first Dresden book and I’ve already bought the next two volumes and the first short story collection. Planning on reading the short stories when they take place between the books. Can’t wait to catch up with it but it’ll probably have to wait until I finish with ROW and Dawnshard since I’m currently reading a Robert Jordan that you can tell was written in the 80’s and reads like it. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Briar King Posted October 15, 2020 Report Share Posted October 15, 2020 As I suspected it was my location keeping me from enjoying new Dresden. Even with a totally messed up house just getting back here today really helped out and I’ve already been through a few chapters. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
