What Are You Reading Wednesday

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

• Was it a page turner? Yes
• Do I like this genre?  Yes
• Setting: Arizona
• The story telling? Yes
• Was it well written? Yes
• Would you recommend this book? Yes, I really enjoyed the amount of humor, magic and action. The characters are likable and the author doesn't waste time trying to set up a "new magical world". There is plenty of excitement with gods, goddess, vampires, witches, druids, werewolves & more,  in this fast paced story.
• Spoiler: Addictive! 
• If you are looking for a "traditional" fantasy/sword and sorcery book this might not be for you. It is chocked full of magic, and magical lore, but it takes place in modern day. 

If you want a fast paced, full-on magical tale this is your book. I enjoyed reading the adventures of an ancient druid who is plagued by magical assassins - set in modern day Arizona. It had the right amount of humor, depth and plenty of action. This is a good story that makes this book tough to put down and leaves you a bit sad its over. I am very much looking forward to reading the rest of the series.

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!
