What I Just Finished Reading: A long weekend and no plans made for a busy reading week. I read six books! The School for Good Mothers by Jessamine Chan, Esther the Wonder Pig by Steve Jenkins et al, Married with Zombies by Jesse Petersen, I, Zombie by Hugh Howey, A High Whisk Situation by HY Hanna, and Mrs. Pargeter's Pound of Flesh by Simon Brett ( Read more... )

Every time I think I'll sit down and try to answer a bunch of old replies and check out my flist because my internet is being good, it then chooses that moment to start playing up again. Ugh.

What I Just Finished Reading: Last week I read three books: The Postmortal by Drew Magary, Call The Midwife: Shadows of the Workhouse by Jennifer Worth, and ( Read more... )

Well, I think I'm about at the point where I'm going to have to bite the bullet and see about getting my own internet connection in the top part of the house. I keep getting a 'no memory' message on Chrome, and the source when I google it comes up as 'unstable internet connection'. I can reset the modem/router/whatever downstairs and that'll work ( Read more... )

What I Just Finished Reading: Since last week I read three books: As You Wish by Cary Elwes, This Perfect Day by Ira Levin, and The Color Purple by Alice Walker. I also wasted a couple of days on Soulstar, the third book in the Kingston Cycle trilogy, before giving up and DNFing.

What I'm Reading Right Now: I'm about halfway through Unwind by Neal ( Read more... )

Little update. Things have been a big struggle in so many ways that I won't get into. But to focus on the computer stuff only: the internet connection thing is better than it was. I'll have a couple of days of stability but then for example last Friday I had a day where the connection dropped literally a dozen times. I am still feeling much better ( Read more... )

What I Just Finished Reading: I ended up going to my sister's place on the weekend and was too tired to read. This was actually the first time this year that I went two days in a row without reading! So, only two books since last week: The Outsider by Jimmy Connors and Flesh & Bone by Jonathan Maberry. Reviews below.

What I Just Finished Reading: Since last week I read five books, though one was just a short story. Still, it was a separate book so... my rules. :D They were: Dust & Decay by Jonathan Maberry, Call The Midwife by Jennifer Worth, The Harvest and The Wind Has Teeth Tonight by Chuck Wendig, and Robopocalypse by Daniel H. Wilson. Reviews below ( Read more... )

What I Just Finished Reading: Since last week I only finished two books: The Lions of Fifth Avenue by Fiona Davis and Half Wild by Sally Green.

This was partially because I gave Wil Wheaton's Still Just A Geek another attempt, this time in hardcover format. And I STILL CANNOT READ IT. The text is tiny, and the little asterisks and various other ( Read more... )

What I Just Finished Reading: Since last week I read 3 books: Shady Hollow by Juneau Black, and Witchmark and Stormsong by CL Polk. Reviews below.

I also started Still Just A Geek by Wil Wheaton, but I only got a couple of chapters in on the ebook before I gave up. The way the annotations work are very frustrating in e-format. You have to look for ( Read more... )

What I Just Finished Reading: Since last week I read four books: Blightborn by Chuck Wendig, Canada by Mike Myers, Soul Eater by Lily Mayne, and Rot & Ruin by Jonathan Maberry. Reviews below.

What I'm Planning to Read Next: I have four books out from the library, so I ( Read more... )
