This Week's Reads

*I feel like I accomplished a lot, reading wise, last week. I finished two of the books I picked up and started the third.

The Field Guide to Sports Metaphors by Josh Chetwynd
(Goodreads)
**Received this from Blogging for Books (website). We are a big sports family as well as a big trivia family. This book falls into both categories.

Love, Lies and Spies by Cindy Anstey
(Goodreads)
**This was a risky pick for me. I enjoy historical fiction but do not like classics. It's called a homage to Jane Austen that has me worried but the few pages I've read so far I liked.

The Tears of the Rose by Jeffe Kennedy
The Twelve Kingdoms #2 (Goodreads)
**Ami wasn't my favorite character from the first book, she seemed very frivolous princessy. I'm interested to see how she changes (if she changes) in her own book.

Stacking the Shelves ~ Thanks to Armchair BEA

Just a quick post to thanks the people that put together Armchair BEA (learn more here) and the publishers/ authors that donated books for the event. I was lucky enough to win three books this year.

Luring Shadows by Kristina Rienzi
(Goodreads) Author Website (here)
**The author also sent a bunch of swag plus the book was signed.

The Pages of The Mind by Jeffe Kennedy
(Goodreads) Author Website (here)

Wonder Women: 25 Innovators, Inventors, and Trailblazers Who Changed History by Sam Maggs
(Goodreads) Author Website (here)
**Received from Quirk Books (publisher)

This Week's Reads

Midnight Blue-Light Special by Seanan McGuire
InCryptid #2 (Goodreads)

The Mark of the Tala by Jeffe Kennedy
The Twelve Kingdoms #1 (Goodreads)
**I recently won book 4 in this series so thought I should finally start it.














These next two I saw on a list about female characters by female authors but cannot find the list/site it came from.

The Thinking Woman's Guide to Real Magic by Emily Croy Barker (Goodreads)
**It has magic and other worlds. Just sounds like something I would enjoy reading.

The Secret History of Wonder Woman by Jill Lepore
(Goodreads)
**I don't generally read  a lot of non fiction. This caught my attention because of all the superhero movies and shows I've been watching. Having not read the comics I don't really don't know a lot about them.
