Monday Reading (June 27th, 2011)

In this weekly event hosted by One Persons Journey Through a World Of Books where we discuss what we've been reading this week (and, occasionally, what we haven't).

I had a stellar reading week!  I don't think I've ever read this many books in a single week.  I think the lack of exams and the end of the television season gave me more free time than expected!

Currently Reading:

• The Hollow by Jessica Verday - I have had this on my shelf for ages now, but the Wicked Pretty Things scandal made me finally pick it up.  I really want to like it because the author is awesome, but I am nervous that I won't!  We'll see...

Finished this week:

• Night Life by Caitlin Kittredge - Fantastic UF!  This had been sitting on my shelf for over a year, and boy am I glad that I finally got round to it.  Check out my review here.
• Exile by Rebecca Lim - Really loved this book!  Not quite as fierce as Mercy, but still wonderful and ethereal and just... guh.  Read it in a single day.
• Once a Witch by Carolyn MacCullough - Is there a nice way to say mediocre?
• Pride by Rachel Vincent - I am so glad I pushed myself through the first two books in this series, because Pride was fierce.  Really enjoyed it.

  

Up next from the TBR Pile:

• I have been thoroughly intimidated by the 800 page size of Game of Thrones, so I think I will wait for the weather to cool down before I start on that series. I kinda feel like revisiting some UF series I've neglected, and think I will start The Touch of Twilight by Vicki Pettersson next.  I was less than impressed by the second novel in her Zodiac series, but maybe the third will be as great as the first was...
