It's probably not available anymore, but I got a wormhole books chapbook to proofread of Edgar Allan Poe's Dark Dreams with awesome illustrations by Alan M Clark. If you're a Poe fan, it's really unique. Not sure you can find it now, though.

I finished this book a few days ago, and I have to say, it was not what I expected. I'm sad to say that I didnt love it, because as my name suggests, I pretty much love anything having to do with mythology. However, this book...IDK. I actually liked that last half better than I did the first.
What did you think of it Alexandria??

Liliana (lililostinabook) I started Spellcaster (Spellbound, #2) by Cara Lynn Shultz yesterday and its pretty amazing so far! Love it!

message 263: by Fiona (Titch) (new)

Fiona (Titch) Hunt (titch) I have just finished the delightful Broken City. Was very surprised at the writing and once I got into the book, I couldn't put it down. Now I am going to read The Truce for review.

Also finished A Gathering Light

Barry James (mondragoran) | 11 comments The Stingray Shuffle

But shhhh don't tell anyone--it'll ruin my reputation as a horror/urban fantasy fan. ;)


message 265: by Fiona (Titch) (new)

Fiona (Titch) Hunt (titch) I decided not to read The Truce last night as I couldn't think straight, so I started reading Private Eyes.


message 266: by Laura (new)

Laura Thomas (laurathomas) | 258 comments I finished Ghost of a Threat (Betty Boo, Ghost Hunter, #1) by Beth Dolgner and am starting The Body Farm  by Marissa Farrar


message 267: by Judith (new)

Judith Post | 391 comments Ooh, Body Farm looks creepy. I read Dead Men Do Tell Tales by Ph.D. William R. Maples. It's interesting what a dead body can tell you.


message 268: by Laura (new)

Laura Thomas (laurathomas) | 258 comments I'll have to try that. Adding to my TBR! Thanks.


message 269: by Fiona (Titch) (new)

Fiona (Titch) Hunt (titch) This morning I finished Private Eyes and also read Husband Won't Buy Wife a Kindle - Franklin Eddy. Now I am reading Star Gazing and I am loving it so far.

Judith Post | 391 comments Just finished reading Gumbo Ya-Ya, a collection of noir short stories. Mostly about guys in prison. Not a happy read, but a good one. I love Les Edgerton's writing style.

Samantha (samanthabtowner) | 20 comments Fair Game (Alpha & Omega #3) by Patricia Briggs
Just finished, loved it. Truthfully I loved it more than the previous ones and I think it gave the last Mercy book a run for its money


message 272: by Judith (new)

Judith Post | 391 comments That's hard to do. Mercy's always been favorite.


message 273: by Fiona (Titch) (new)

Fiona (Titch) Hunt (titch) I have finished Star Gazing - Linda Gillard. Now I am going back to reading The Truce - E. Milan.


message 274: by Fiona (Titch) (new)

Fiona (Titch) Hunt (titch) I have read and finished Inspector Zhang Gets His Wish! - Stephen Leather.


message 275: by Judith (new)

Judith Post | 391 comments I'm halfway through Mercy Blade with Jane Yellowrock, by Faith Hunter. Love her books, but boy, it's getting complicated. I need a notepad, but I still won't figure out who the "bad" guy is for a while, if I can at all.


message 276: by Fiona (Titch) (new)

Fiona (Titch) Hunt (titch) Finally finished The Truce - E. Milan. Now I think I will read The Guardian's Apprentice - J. Michael Radcliffe.


message 277: by Judith (new)

Judith Post | 391 comments Couldn't figure out what kind of book The Truce would be by its title. Went to your review. Nice.


message 278: by Fiona (Titch) (new)

Fiona (Titch) Hunt (titch) I found it pretty hard going at times, but worth the perservance x


message 279: by Judith (new)

Judith Post | 391 comments Hope the Guardian's Apprentice is more fun for you!

You can send the PDF file to your Kindle email as an attachment with the word "convert" in the subject line, and it will convert to a readable format for you.

I found that out while Googling trying to figure out how to convert files for my Kindle :) It works with PDF and doc files, but I don't think it works with epub.

Stephanie Hello. I'm currently reading A Game of Thrones and then afterwards I'm going to finish up on The Throne of Fire.

This is a great story & for such a low price as well!


message 296: by Stephanie (new)

Stephanie How's Angelfall? I was looking into that one awhile back. The reviews are astonishing though.


message 297: by Judith (new)

Judith Post | 391 comments Laura made me curious, so read the blurb. That got me hooked, so I bought another book. Thanks for the recommendation. It sounds good.
