Cal's Journal

I haven't managed to get through many books over the last couple of months. Hopefully I'll make up for it in July. :)

May and June

23. The Fiery Cross - Diana Gabaldon
24. From Dead To Worse - Charlaine Harris
25. The Help - Kathryn Stockett
26. The Man Who Disappeared - Clare Morrall

Books read in March

13. The Open Door by Beryl Matthews
Not what I'd usually read (it's my mum's), but enjoyable. Not very well-written, though.

14. The Way Home by George Pelecanos
Written by one of the writers of The Wire and it shows. Loved it!

15. Wings of the Morning by Beryl Matthews
Sequel to The Open Door. Also my mum's. :)

16. All Together Dead by Charlaine Harris
Book 7 of the Sookie Stackhouse series. Probably my second favourite so far, with Dead to the World being number one. Yes, I really am that predictable. *g*

17. Silver Borne by Patricia Briggs
Book 5 in the Mercy Thompson series, and another great read. I love these books!

18. The Silver Linings Play Book by Matthew Quick
Interesting and thought-provoking read.

Next up: Blackout by Connie Willis

Books Read in January

1. Personal Demon - Kelley Armstrong
2. Living With The Dead - Kelley Armstrong
3. The Little Stranger - Sarah Waters
4. Blacklands - Belinda Bauer
5. Frostbitten - Kelley Armstrong
6. I Can Make You Thin - Paul McKenna (I'll let you know if it works *g*)

( Dead to the World (book4) and the beginning of Dead as a Doornail (book 5) spoilers )

( True Blood talk (may include spoilers up to book 5) )

So I think it's safe to say that I'm enjoying the heck out of True Blood and the Sookie Stackhouse books so far - and I don't care who knows it! They're not masterpieces by any stretch of the imagination...but they're a lot of fun. And that's what I need right now. :)

No episode this week, so I have to wait until the 13th (probably 14th for me) to see it. I can't wait!

But until then, back to reading Dead as a Doornail...

Long time no see. *waves*

I haven't had a great deal of time for reading lately, but here is a (short) list of the books I've read over the last couple of months:

1. Cross Stitch by Diana Gabaldon (aka Outlander) - second half (first half read in March). I am seriously in love with these books!
2. Turn Coat (The Dresden Files) by Jim Butcher
3. Dragonfly in Amber (Outlander series) by Diana Gabaldon
4. Voyager (Outlander series) by Diana Gabaldon - Have I mentioned how much I love these books yet? *g* They're looong (this one is over a thousand pages), but oh so fabulous. I can't get enough of them!

And that's it. :)

I finally have my laptop back (yay!), so hopefully I'll be able to start posting more soon. I hope you're all well. *hugs*
