Yeah, yeah, it's been a while, but then again, it's been a while since I finished a book. Here's what's happened since last I posted a Reading Wrap-up...
I picked up one new ebook. It's by a popular author that I've been wanting to read and when I saw he put this on sale for 99c, I snapped it up. That one's a SF. I also still have a YA action/adventure, a UF, and a legal thriller to read. Yay!
Books Read:
28) The Devil's Angel by Margaret Bernard (7/26/25) - UF*# - 5 stars. New to me and underappreciated. Free off Amazon's Top 100 Contemporary Fantasy free list.
Review: "I really enjoyed reading this. It has an interesting premise, a thrilling plot, and intriguing characters. The end and lead-in to the next book(s) was so-so, but not enough to lose it a star. All in all a good book."
Note: Available in Audiobook.
DNFs:
7/15/25 - UF - free. Thinking about it now, I'm pretty sure this was written by AI. At least I hope no human writes like that. It was pretty bad.
7/15/25 - UK thriller - free. I don't remember exactly why I DNF'd this puppy. Lame characters, poor dialogue... something like that because the premise was good. :shrug:
Currently reading... since I just now finished the UF, I haven't started another ebook. I'm still working on that Hercule Poirot omnibus. One story left to go on that, I think.
What have you been reading lately?
I can't remember that far back. 😉 I've "read" 64 books so far, still 6 behind challenge. I may have to adjust again. It happens. Anyway...
ReplyDelete64. The Crystal Gryphon (Witch World/High Hallack Cycle), Andre Norton, fantasy. 4 stars. Nostalgic read for me. Norton was my "gateway drug" as a kid.
63. Angles of Darkness, multi-author anthology. Para/UF. 4 stars. Two fave authors in this one. Interesting short stores set in known worlds, one set in a "side" world.
62. Rogue Magic (Legacy #4) McKenzie Hunter, ParaRom. 4 stars. Last book in series. Got this on sale in a bundle of all 4 books. Interesting premise of supernatural beings, humans, and forbidden magic.
61. Renegade Magic (Legacy, #3), McKenzie Hunter, ParaRom 4 stars. Same as above. The other 2 books in the series are
Obsidian Magic (Legacy, #2) & Double-Sided Magic (Legacy, #1), also 4 stars. Not sure if I listed them before or not.
Currently listening to ATONEMENT SKY by Nalini Singh, in her Psy/Changeling Trinity series. It's a good one.
Happy reading!
