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.

That's awesome!

[Guest Somebody from Scadrial]

I've been rereading rage of dragons by Evan Winter and some Brandon books and I'm about to read dragon reborn

[Condensation she/her]

Eragon!

[Briar King]

Starting Battle Ground tonight so I’m back to reading 4 books at a time once I do begin it.

[StormingTexan he/him]

I am finally starting The Dresden Files. It’s been on my list forever. 

[Condensation she/her]

Awesome! I love that one.

[aneonfoxtribute]

I'm reading Remember11. It's a visual novel, but I'm reading it so I put it here

[Briar King]

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.

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.

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.

finally finished reading Mistborn Hero of Ages a few minutes ago this morning.

 

I think ive had enough of Mistborn for awhile. Time to move on to getting back into reading Star Wars books and To Kill a Mockingbird

[aneonfoxtribute]

To be read soon-ish

[NottTheBrave he/him]

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!

Mouse is a very good boy. Actually top 10 best doggos. 

[StormingTexan he/him]

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. 

[Draginon he/him]

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.

[Condensation she/her]

I'm rereading Keeper of the Lost Cities. On Book 4, Neverseen.

[Briar King]

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.

I feel you should know that as I scrolled past this, my sister started making very high-pitched noises next to me. (It's one of her favorite series.)

"Who's your favorite character?"

Are you active on the fandom wiki? 'cause I'm thinking there's a non-zero chance the two of you'd get along fantastically. (That or I can bug her to get an account here...)
