Sunday Summary

My week in books:

I can’t say I’ve had an excessive reading month so far – but there’s still time!!!

Read so far:

  1. Golden Son by Pierce Brown, No.2 in the series and so bloody good. Review of Red Rising here.
  2. The Ship  by Antonia Honeywell – an intriguing idea
  3. Shadow Study by Maria Snyder – I do so enjoy these books and this is no exception.
  4. The Iron Ghost by Jen Williams – this author is just so good – I can’t recommend The Copper Promise and Iron Ghost enough
  5. Canary by Duane Swierczynski – review to follow

E-books received:

  1. The Rebirths of Tao by Wesley Chu – I’ve bought the first two and now I’m going to have a mammoth trilogy readalong by myself!
  2. The Unremembered by Peter Orullian – this looked very intriguing so we’ll see.
  3. Voyage of the Basilisk by M L Brennan – so happy to receive this book that I danced a little jig!
  4. Daughters of Shadow and Blood – by J Matthew Saunders – intrigued by the mention of Dracula!

Books bought:

  1. Red Delicious by Kathleen Tierney – loved the first (Blood Oranges) and so very excited to read this.
  2. The Oversight by Charlie Fletcher – I’ve just really liked the look of this for some time and then I also saw an excellent review from Not Yet Read here.
  3. Cursed Moon by Jaye Wells – the first of these books I received from one of my blogger buddies (thank you Andrea) and very much enjoyed

Also, signed up to participate in the bloggers love-a-thon over at Alexa Loves Books.  As it happens this was a weekend event and I was totally abysmal due to things outside of my control.  But, better late than never!  My idea for a love-a-thon is to give lots of kudos to some of the amazing blogs out there that you should check out – here are a few that you might want to check out:

Wondrous Read, Stainless Steel Droppings, Little Red Reviewer, Dab of Darkness, Over the Effing Rainbow, Coffee, cookies and chilli peppers, Dark Cargo, Tethyan Books, The Bookworm Chronicles Genkinahito, Sleepless Musings of a well groomed, mustached man, Fantasy Review Barn, Tenacious Reader, Bibliosanctum, Not Yet Read, Bayou Quilts, Books Bones Buffy, Nashville Bookworm, Little Lion Lynnets, Woven Magic, Fine Print, Of Dragons and Hearts, SF Signal, Fantasy Faction, Drunken Dragon Reviews, Bookwraiths, Beauty in Ruins, Violin in a Void, Two Dudes in an Attic, Tales of the Marvelous, Lipsyy Lost and Found, The Earthian Hivemind, Bride of the Book God; Postcards from Asia, Marvel at Words, Books Without Any Pictures

Okay, – this list could go on and on and on but I’ve just simply run out of time!!  If I’ve missed you off then a thousand apologies please believe me – it wasn’t intentional!!!  I’ll keep adding onto this…

Also, having a readalong with the amazing Dab of Darkness of Max Gladstone’s Three Parts Dead.  Due to start March.
