Happy Sunday!
I'm getting a late start this morning because I slept in. It was after 9:00 before I had my first coffee. Of course, the fact that I stayed up till 2:30 chatting on WhatsApp had nothing to do with it, lol. 
But regardless, it's a gorgeous day here and I'm going for a lovely, long walk this morning. But before I go run off, I thought I would knock out a few more book reviews, lol. I'm so far behind, that I really should be writing 10 at a time, lol - but we both know thats not going to happen. Today we will have to make do with two, instead.
Yesterday, while I was trolling for books on Amazon I noticed there was an Expanse novella that I hadn't read yet, so I scooped it up. Auberon came out in November 2019 and I have no idea how I missed it then? Oh yeah - I remember now, I was busy writing my book, lol. 
Sunday Short Review:
Auberon (An Expanse Novella) By James S.A. Corey
If you read the The Churn novella, you were given insight into Amos Burton and the Baltimore criminals. Erich from this novella is a main character in Auberon and his story is worth catching up on. Also read my review of Book One in this series here. Saturday Short Review II: The Churn: An Expanse Novella (The Expanse) By James S.A. Corey
I have paid links in this post, but trust me, I only make a small fee off them and never write about anything I don't personally love.
Okay I'm off for that walk now. ​Have a great Sunday!

 Hi, friends! Spring is in full swing over here in our part of the world, and I'm doing a bit of Spring cleaning. I admit that I forgot/lost my password to Goodreads and am a bit late in updating my book reviews. (So be prepared for weekly reviews until I am caught up.)  I read Leviathan Wakes (The Expanse Book 1) way back in February 2019 and was hooked on the series. So before I review the entire 8 books in this series, and overload you, let's begin with book #1. Saturday Short Review: Leviathan Wakes (The Expanse Book 1) By James S.A. Corey
 James S. A. Corey is the pen name of fantasy author Daniel Abraham, author of the critically acclaimed Long Price Quartet, and writer Ty Franck. They both live down the street from me in Albuquerque, New Mexico. I think I have seem them buying tacos, but I kept my cool and didn't fan girl out. lol.  More reviews shortly!  (The Vatican City at the Heart of Rome) You are still allowed to dream about your next magical destination...
 Hello Travel Family,
I hope you are safe and sound where ever you are in the world. During a time where it's important to stay home and not travel, we can still get inspired and plan for future adventures! Where are you planning on visiting next? I really wanted to revisit Italy this year. Hopefully it can still happen later in the year on in 2021. What's on your bucket list? Speak soon~  "The richness of the rain made me feel safe and protected; I have always considered the rain to be healing—a blanket—the comfort of a friend. Without at least some rain in any given day, or at least a cloud or two on the horizon, I feel overwhelmed by the information of sunlight and yearn for the vital, muffling gift of falling water."
Douglas Coupland I'm currently traveling and enjoying the rain. Have a great weekend!  It's Spring in New Mexico!  Remember the plum tree that was struck by lightening?  It is the same tree I caught my neighbor (from down the street) trying to pull up? Via a rope and his car?  Because he just knew it was dead? Yeah...that was a wild day. Anyway, this is THAT very same tree all decked out in spring blossoms!  They are just beginning to flower...the pictures do not do it justice.  Overflowing with pretty pink blossoms.   Aren't they pretty?   I have this in a vase, it's so perfect it doesn't look real.   Just a few more..   It's actually still far from warm here.  But I'm not wearing 5 layers - only two now. Happy Spring!  Hi, friends! Winter is in full swing over here in our part of the world, so naturally, I have two things on my mind: reading and staying warm! Nothing like a warm fire and a good book! Fortunately I have a pile of TBR and a cozy place to read. #WIN  This book was recommended to me and was so good!   Great Book! Hounded by Kevin Hearne
 I read this while I was ill (even the SC filter couldn't make me look normal) I have ordered book two and three & can't wait for them to arrive.  Did I mention the old gods pop up in this story?  I also read Garden Spells last month while I was ill. Although, I couldn't get into it at all. I was surfing around Amazon (always dangerous) and it was a "recommended for you based on your other purchases" so I gave it a try. :( Perhaps will try it again later.    I'm not going to review it - other than to say I had to force myself to read it....and feel like it was a waste of time. But I do plan to review at least two books every week till I get caught up. (Perhaps I should review four at a time or we will be at this till next Christmas?) Lol  My Neil Gaiman reading frenzy continues...although Sandman is a collection of other peoples stories.  I'm currently reading.  So enjoying the "Expanse" series, too. I think there are 7 books, with another coming out in later this month?  :D The snow is melting! Making for a clear, but cold day. I'm headed back to my spot by the fire to finish Leviathan Wakes. I actually put off reading this series because I enjoy the television show so much. Usually reading and watching don't mix, you know? But I haven't been disappointed...
What are you reading? Do you have any recommendation? Share your current "can't put it down" books please! |
