Coming Up...

This past Wednesday was my local book club meeting. We discussed Daughter of the Forest(if you missed my review you can check it out hereand I swear they always put me in the best mood. Five of my friends and I devote a couple hours, and several bottles of wine, once a month and I look forward to it all month long. We decided that our upcoming "January" book would be Shadowfever by Karen Marie Moning.  This just gives me more reason to fall off the face of the planet come Jan 18th.  So, to prepare for the 5th and final book I will be re-reading the series.  Fiction Vixen & Smexy Books are co- hosting discussions of the re-read and the next discussion is Dec 20th for all things Faefever. So I have to get cracking...I can't wait.


This week was also great b/c I discovered that one of my local Borders was closing and the entire store was 40% off, and since paperbacks never go on sale it would be un-just to pass up this opportunity; right?!  The store was pretty picked over but I found 5 books I need/want so I couldn't be more pleased.  


Books in this week:
The Greyfair by Clay Griffith & Susan Griffith
Siren Song by Cat Adams  

Magic at the Gate by Devon Monk
Night Pleasures by Sherrilyn Kenyon 
Bloodfever by Karen Marie Moning
Soulless Gail Carriger



Reading:
I'm currently reading Magic in the Shadows by Devon Monk.  Also this week I'll be reading Bloodfever by KMM and Pale Demon by Kim Harrison.  (I know this was on my reading list last week, but I got behind...sorry)

Reviewing:
Tomorrow will be our first ever dueling review!  Kristin and I will each be posting our review on Nightshade by Andrea Cremer.  It should be interesting. I'll also be posting my review of Gentlemen Prefer Succubi by Jill Myles and possibly Magic in the Shadows if there's time. 

Giveaways:
Tuesday I'll be announcing a Holiday giveaway. It's a small little way for me to say "Thanks" to all of you who stop in and say hi.  I hope you'll come back and check it out.

That's it from here, what are you getting into this week?

  1. Ooo, I really liked Night Pleasures. I gave it 5 stars. You're going to give it 4. And Magic in the Shadows...Magic Fight! (Is all I'm saying)

  3. Holy moly. It's too bad the Borders is closing (any other bookstores nearby?), but awesome that you got to pick up those books at a great discount.

    Also..yer so lucky to be able to share such a relaxed, enjoyable book-discussion with your peeps! ^_^

  4. Alisha- There are 2 Borders by us, I think they just decided it was too pricey to run both. All is not lost :D
