I started White Night yesterday. I'm about 4 hours in now.
I had similar issues with the Iron Druid Chronicles, but as I own the first 3 audiobooks, I'll just wait until I'm 'ready'. Some books just don't start well. Give 'em a rest and try again later. |

I keep seeing The Martian being mentioned all over here lately...I guess I better pick that one up soon. It sounds really interesting.

I thought it was some of the most believable SF that I've ever read. Plus the dialogue had me actually laughing out loud to myself. I can't remember the last time that happened. (Yeah yeah, the last time it happened was "Cold Days" but you know what I mean) Definitely a five star read for me. |

I've been reading the latest releases of Seanan McGuire's Incryptid series, Patricia Brigg's Mercy Thompson series, Karen Chance's "Masks" and J.R. Ward's BDB series. Up next is Devon Monk's Stone Cold. It's been a good few weeks for new Urban Fantasy books! |

What to read while waiting for Skin Game's release!
A Sandy Daily Deal! - from Hugh Howey's Goodreads Blog
Sunday is Sanday, it seems. SAND is Amazon’s Daily Deal today, which means they’re practically giving away my latest novel for $1.99. Two bucks! Cheaper than a bag of actual sand at Home Depot! (Or a cup of coffee.) Last edited by alansplace; 04-06-2014 at 10:44 AM. |

I'm just starting Blood Rites, definitely one of my favourite Dresden novels, especially the beginning. Makes me laugh out loud just thinking about it.
