Monday's Beginnings (67)

How are you faring in reading at the beginning of this week?  Are you starting a new book or finishing one up?

Well, I'm taking a short break so this will probably be a short post.  But the moving is going great!  I am still pushing to get my one small book shelf in my den so I can at least put up my books to review and a few small things I want out.  We still have many totes and boxes in the other house and it is snowing!  Well, we have a bad habit of moving at the wrong time of year and it always snows for us. :D Oh well... as for reading... sorry folks not much here.  Been busy with this moving stuff.  But I am working on Bone Gods by Caitlin Kittredge for the Thursday chat with Robyn from The Bookoholic Zone.  I'm not all that far into it yet, but I'm enjoying it and ready to start hiding in the small pantry with a book light. ;D But its one of those weeks.

Have you joined us in our chat for Demon Bound by Caitlin Kittredge?  If not, CLICK HERE.

As for my WANT list... I added 5 books!  For someone that wasn't online much this past week, that is something amazing. :)  Thank you all!

Purchased:
Well, I went to the store on Tuesday as it was a huge release day.  And I bought one new release for the chat on Thursday, and then I went to the used book store for gifts (and found something I wanted too).

Pete Caldecott is trying to survive in Black London without Jack Winter, her teacher and closest friend.  After Jack was turned into a demon, he went to live far out of reach...in hell.  But for Pete, surviving is no easy matter.  The Black is rife with turf wars between mages and necromancers, the witch-hunting Order of the Malleus has resurfaced, and the gods themselves seem to be at each other's throats.  Then Jack reappears, as the head of hell's army, and Pete has to choose between Jack, and her duties as a Weir--which demand she kill him to save the world from certain destruction...

When Henry Atherton arrives at the house of eccentric old Mr. Fogarty, he comes upon crown prince Pyrgus Malvae, who has escaped the Faerie realm, where the Faeries of the Night want to kill him. Mr. Fogarty and Henry decide to help the prince return home. It's a complex situation, involving an evil demon, two avaricious glue factory owners, and Lord Hairstreak, leader of the Faeries of the Night, each with a personal agenda that will lead to taking over the realm. A subplot (Henry realizes that his mother, not his father, is having an affair with his father's secretary) is totally unnecessary, and there are discrepancies in the story and some awkwardness to slow things down. Still, there's enough solid adventure in the Faerie realm to keep readers on the edge of their seats.

So, how are you faring this week?  Does it look like a good reading week?

I don't know about me, but I hope the best for all of you.  Here's to you having a great week in words and pages!  Back to the grind for me. :) Hope to be back on full time later this week. :)
