If any of them are in audio format then I would love them.

Currently listening to Scarpetta series by Patricia Cornwell. I admit these first in the series are not PI on several things. The main thing I have a problem with is the smoking everywhere. But that is only because I have recently quit smoking and it makes me think about cigarettes and then I want one lol.

Currently reading Slay Bells Ring (Caprice De Luca Home Staging Mystery #7).

And I have reached my reading goal for the year. Included in the goal is listened and read books for a total of 370. My goal was 365 books. I hope to hit 400 by end of year.

I don't know if they are, since I rarely listen to audio books, with the exception of OTR (Old Time Radio).

Congratulations on the quitting smoking. You will soon find you have more of the green stuff.

Congrats on quitting smoking. I quit 48 years ago and have never regretted it.

I don't drink and have never smoked, but I'm overweight. That's kind of my nemesis, to lose weight.

I have no help there as at one point in my life, I was severely underweight. This came mostly from drinking, smoking and eating every three days.

Just finished reading Ann Leckie's Imperial Radch series: Ancillary Justice; Ancillary Sword; & Ancillary Mercy. I wasn't planning to do a binge read of these, but once I got started, I just couldn't put them down. A solid 4 stars for the series as a whole, with the final book in the series a full 5 stars. Impressive, and unexpected.

I'm into my Christmas reading now and nearing the end of A Christmas Carol by Charles Dickens for the umpteeth time.

Also finishing up the last few stories in the Dreamtime Dragon Anthology edited by Nils Visser, which I highly recommend to all dragon fiction fans.

Not at all.

Any order is fine. Many of the earlier ones are zanier and crazier than the later ones, but they can be read in any order.

You have to remember these simple facts: Shell Scott is a man whom women want. No woman can resist him. And Shell Scott wants every woman.

I know, right? Her latest, Provenance, is set in the same universe, but is unrelated to the trilogy. I am looking forward to reading more from her.


Last night, I finished listening to Harry Potter and the Half-Blood Prince; I am still waiting for the last book to become available at the library, so I will have to listen to other things until then.

I don't know if I make them all, but I did pick most of them up when One Road had their free for all on Amazon.com. I'll have to see if I have the first one and if so, have a read after I convert it to ePub.
