Currently Reading

  • The Merciful Crow (Merciful Crow, #1) by Margaret Owen – ebook
  • House of Earth and Blood (Crescent City, #1) by Sarah J. Maas – audiobook, reread

I’m close to finishing up The Merciful Crow  and what a ride it has been so far. I’m really interested in seeing where it all goes from here, but basically I just want Fie to keep kicking ass. Side Note: Not insanely invested in the romantic sub-plot still but maybe it’ll get better.

Slowly working my way still through Crescent City. I may be regretting deciding to listen to the audio (27 HOURS, Y’ALL!) instead of just rereading a physical copy, but I’m gonna stick with it. I’m over halfway through so I can’t stop now. The narrator is great and I still love the story, I’m just finding less and less time to actually listen.

What did you recently finish reading?

  • Daughter of the King (Defying the Crown, #1) by Kerry Chaput – ARC, physical book

I was able to finish this one up over the weekend and I ended up liking it more towards the end. I think the pace in the beginning is what slowed this one down for me the most, but I have a feeling the sequel won’t have that same issue. Full review should go up next week!

What do you think you’ll read next?

  • Jade Legacy (Green Bone Saga, #3) by Fonda Lee – physical book
  • Our American Friend  by Anna Pitoniak – ebook, ARC
  • Daughters of a Dead Empire  by Carolyn Tara O’Neil – ebook, ARC

  • Daughter of the King (Defying the Crown, #1) by Kerry Chaput – ARC, physical book
  • House of Earth and Blood (Crescent City, #1) by Sarah J. Maas – audiobook, reread

I’m in the middle of rereading (or listening to this time) Crescent City, so I’ll be ready for the sequel when it comes out later this month. I’m so glad I decided to reread because I had forgotten sooo much that had happened!

I’m also close to finishing up Daughter of the King.  While it’s a very well-researched book, the writing seems a bit dense and it’s taking me longer to finish than I thought it would. I also am pretty early on in The Merciful Crow but I’m loving it so far. It’s very interesting and after reading Owen’s latest book last fall, I know I’m in for a good time.

What did you recently finish reading?

  • A History of Wild Places by Shea Ernshaw – eARC
  • The Sandman, Part 1 by Neil Gaiman – full production audiobook, comic

I finished these two over the weekend and really enjoyed both of them. Wild Places was very intriguing and had me guessing what was going to happen next, thanks to all of the twists it kept throwing at me. I definitely recommend it! I’ll be posting a full review soon on it.

Gaiman is basically a writing god, so no surprise that his foray into DC comics was amazing. I loved all of the little details tying Morpheus’ story to the rest of the Justice League. If anything, this has only made me even more excited for the show adaptation coming to Netflix this year. It’ll be interesting to see if DC lets them keep all of the tie-ins to the greater JL universe.

What do you think you’ll read next?

  • Court (Crave, #4) by Tracy Wolff – physical book
  • Empire of the Vampire (Empire of the Vampire, #1) by Jay Kristoff – physical book
  • Jade Legacy (Green Bone Saga, #3) by Fonda Lee – physical book
