I've been remiss starting this topic late, really late, the last few months. So while it's on my mind I'll start it early by two days.

Carryover from February

Ghosts of Tomorrow
The Lions of Al-Rassan - FBR Group Read
Assassin's Quest - audio
Lords of the North - audio
City of Blades

I don't usually have this many books going at one but a lot came due at the library for kindle and audio books at once.

Starting in March

The Demon King - FBR Group Read 3/1
Orb Sceptre Throne - FBR Group Read 3/6
A Shadow in Summer - FBR Group Read 3/15
Traitor's Blade - FBR Group Read 3/22
Arm of the Sphinx - FBR Group Read 3/27

I'm sure I'll do some additional audio books to this list but that's the complete list for what I'll be able to fit in for Kindle.

Miche | 3279 comments Books scheduled so far:
The Demon King - 03/01
Gardens of the Moon - 03/01
Traitor's Blade - 03/22

Books I will probably read but I don't have a fixed date:
Warbreaker
Elantris
Heir of Fire

I am trying to not overbook the month, as Garden of the Moon seems to require a lot of concentration.

The Way of Shadows
The Rithmatist

All "Buddy Reads" in this group (or another). Not as prolific (if that applies to readers) as most of you, but you are inspiring!

Chris  Haught (haughtc) | 2348 comments I'll probably finish The Reborn King and A Gathering of Shadows pretty early, then move to A Conjuring of Light and The Alloy of Law. If my anatomy class doesn't kill me too badly, I hope to get to the 2nd and 3rd Wax & Wayne Mistborn books.

Just skip out on studying the kidney. Nobody (except Nephrologists) understands it anyways.

I did A Conjuring of Light in Feb. A good ending to a good series which I came close to abandoning after book one.

Shaitarn | 2184 comments I'm planning:

The Demon King

Outside of those buddy reads I'm hoping to re-read the old Sun Wolf and Starhawk trilogy by Barbara Hambly:

I would, but I actually re-read all Robin Hobb's Elderling books over the summer, so they're all too fresh in my mind for another re-read (you do not know how hard it was for me not to join your Farseer trilogy read)...

Is it okay if I join in with the discussion though? I could sing the praises of that series endlessly!

Of cause! More people make the discussions even better! :)

I've having a very productive reading month ( I think it's my brain knowing that most of next month will be taken up with Memories of Ice). I'm now reading Revolt which I was given as an ARC and Proven Guilty.

That's great!


message 24: by Chris (new)

Chris  Haught (haughtc) | 2348 comments I finished A Conjuring of Light and The Reborn King.

Then got stalled in The Hundred Thousand Kingdoms but I've been able to steadily read The Mirror’s Truth in spite of school.
