Next up: Back to fiction with Swordheart by T. Kingfisher.
Which was a delightful romantic fantasy. With attention paid to both parts.

Next up: The Margarets by Sheri S. Tepper. I bought this one way back in 2008!

It has been a few weeks since I finished The Black Wolf by Louise Penny.

I gave it 4 stars but I was left somewhat disappointed by this book. I have read all her books in order as they came out. I don't feel that it is absolutely necessary to read them in order, but if you did not read The Gray Wolf first, you would be lost.

For my next novel, I've started Nonesuch by Francis Spufford. Dark magic can be problematic for me, but his Cahokia Jazz was one of my favorite books of last year so I'm chancing it.
Still not a fan of dark magic. This was... ok. I've now read four novels by Spufford, a British author; two of them were set in America and were terrific; two were set during the Blitz and were kinda crappy. I wish he'd stick to this side of the pond.

I've started May We Feed the King by Rebecca Perry.

I read an intriguing review at the NY Times and stopped reading when I thought I'd like it, as you do. I'm about halfway through and I'm liking it well enough, but there needs to be a payoff. With my last novel (see above) the payoff was somewhat of a damp squib; I want better.

Finished book 1 of Sandhamm Murders by Viveca Sten. That was Still Waters and still excellent. Currently on book 2 entitled Closed Circles.

Still enjoying the Dungeon Crawler Carl series, but man... are they getting long! The audio book of The Butcher's Masquerade is over 24 hours long (and the next one is over 28)! They're still providing many laugh-out-loud moments for me, so thank goodness for the ability to speed up the narration without making everyone sound like munchkins!
