I have decided to re-read Mistborn series. As predicted, once I found that I don't have to read the first arc again, I realised I want to read it. So, will start up on it soon.

The Notebook sounds pretty interesting. Do share your review when you are done with it.

I really should start Way of Kings, it's going to take me almost an year to re-read the series.

At least 450 more books to enjoy! It's a good life!

There is no Sasquatch in any of the Dresden Files novel or short story yet. So, don't know.

I still have old Sony Pocket reader, but I am keeping an eye on Kobo for my next one, whenever it completely dies.

Hehe, I think that's a problem many people here face. I am reading more than one book a month, that is pretty good with my schedule, but I am still buying more than I am reading, and adding more to my wishlist than I am buying, so probably not going to catch up in this lifetime.

I have started to look at it from the other side, I am not going to run out of the books and am always going to have something to read!

Well, I scare easily, but it still seems like worth a try.

Cormac McCarthy is difficult to read too. So if you can read his books I am sure classics shouldn't be too much of an issue.

I have Susanna Clarke's Jonathan Strange & Mr Norrell for many years, but haven't gotten around to actually reading it. Have you read that one?

Educated sounds interesting, I have some interest in survivalism, but that sounds like an extreme example.

Yes, I read the whole book, but for the life of me I can't remember anything about any of of the other stories. Only thing I remember is that I was surprised that I am Legend wasn't a novel but a short story / novella.

I read a lot of self-pub fantasy and this newsletter is one of the resources I use to pick books to read.

Titles that caught my attention so far:

  • Card Mage
  • Runelight
  • Wakespire (7th book of a series, I've already read and enjoyed the first six)
  • The Non-Magical Declan Moore
 

Hello Everyone!

What are you all reading?

I am currently going through a re-read of Dresden Files by Jim Butcher. Currently on 2nd book, Fool Moon.

 

Hi,

Has anyone here read Artemis Fowl series? Thinking about getting it for my kid. Was wondering if it is fine for 8-9 year old kid.

Also, any other recommendations? He loved Diary of the Wimpy Kid, but struggled to get into Harry Potter.

Thanks.
