Books

I've been reading a lot because I can hold a book while I'm nursing. And we go to the library a lot together.
Well written, but weird. Hard sci-fi. Hard to describe to others (like Scott).  I liked it and I'll probably read more by him.


I love this author and I love her books. I think she's starting a new world. The last book was in a different world than her Arcane books, which I enjoy a lot. This book was really good. The last one, Copper Beach - was not all that great. The villains were too over-the-top. The scenario was not plausible. This book was good. I enjoyed it a lot. Victorian setting, funny dialogue.        

I've both read and listened to this one. Excellent!

Audiobook - I've read the first book in this series. I have the second but haven't finished it. I love this author and her Kate Daniels series. The audiobooks are read by the same narrator, who is outstanding. BUT - it's confusing to hear those voices in a different series.  

Good -  I didn't buy the relationship between the h/h, but it was a good way to continue the series.  Not sure which couple is next, but this book moved the storyline forward in good ways. 

This is my first book by this author. I'm still working my way through it. 

This one was funny. I'll probably read more by him. 

This is another one that I listened to. I love the series; love the author.  The storyline and the characters are great, but I guess the author's prose is repetitive and annoying - especially if you're listening to it instead of reading.  The same girl reads the whole series and she stinks.Good characters and it moved the storyline of the series forward, but annoying to listen to. What the hell color is silver-gold? It's used over and over again to describe someone's hair and I just don't get it.  

This is another gem of a series. They get better as the series goes on too. I don't know if they stand alone, per se, but I read them out of order and I was fine. I also listened to some of them. The girl narrator was annoying. This is supposed to be California (?)and everyone has an annoying Yankee accent.
