Books and travelling with Lynn 
Enjooooy! Sorry I gave you so many – ha!
NO – absolutely, under no circumstances, ever be sorry about the volume of books – especially as it makes me so happy 😀

Haha, woah! You’ve got enough to keep you going for a while there, eh? A lovely little mini-library. Quite a few of these are on my wishlist – I’m especially interested to hear what you think of Ender’s Game because I quite fancy reading that but have heard such mixed reviews. I’m currently reading The String Diaries by Stephen Lloyd Jones and it is great so far.
The String Diaries looks really good and has some great reviews. I hope it stays great to the end and will look out for your review.
Lynn 😀
Oh wow! Lots of good books there. My boyfriend is in the middle of reading A Dance of Cloaks right now and seems to be liking it so far.
I like the look of that one! Also the Boy with the Porcelain Blade – just bought that – only £1.99 on Kindle at the moment.

Oooooooooooooooooh. Lookit all the shiny bookses. Looookiiiiit. <3<3<3<3
I think "Fire" sounds especially interesting. But there are so many shiny titles in your list. I hope you'll enjoy them all! ^_^ (And guess what I got! Though it'll no doubt take me forever to get to. "The Emperor's Soul". I thought you'd like knowing. ^_^)
Excellent. I hope you enjoy it but I really think you will. I think it’s one of Sanderson’s best stories. Will look forward to your review.
Lynn 😀
I hope so! I didn’t get on with “Warbreaker” at all when I picked that up. I was sad. (Still am sad. It sounds like such an awesome setting. And I bounced off it. T_T) Sometimes we get along better with an author’s short work than their long work (or vice versa), though, so I’m hoping that’ll be the case here. We shall see! I’m looking forward to giving it a try anyway. ^_^
Yeah, I’ve never picked Warbreaker up so have no idea what that’s about. Emperor is a different kettle of fish though I think.
Lynn 😀
oh my goodness, that is a lot of delicious books!!
I received the new Mur Lafferty too, but it is book 2. can I read it without having read the 1st book in the series?
I don’t know to be honest so I bought No.1 just in case. I’m reading Jemisin now but was going to pick up the first Lafferty after that – they do look like good fun and I love the covers and titles!
Lynn 😀
Oh, let me know what Prince of Fools is like. I’ve read Prince of Thorns, and look forward to reading King and Emperor, too. (I just hope Fools is more than a variation on a theme…)
I understand that it’s set in the same world but it’s a new storyline.
