I also finished Dark Places on audiobook this morning. I loved it. 5 stars for sure. And thank you to everyone who suggested this one!

It's snowing. The roads are sloppy.
Finished Morning Glory by Sarah Jio and got about a quarter of the way through Unravel Me.

I completely neglected The Dream Thieves. I'm not sure I will finish it before it's due back at the library next week.
The outside world is icy here. A lot downed trees in my neighborhood. The local schools had a two hour delay, but we just found out they are doing a 90 minute early dismissal because of all the power outages and the trees on the roads. And it's supposed to snow again tomorrow.
“Would you tell me, please, which way I ought to go from here?"
"That depends a good deal on where you want to get to."
"I don't much care where –"
"Then it doesn't matter which way you go.”

I finished "Into the Dreaming" by Karen Marie Moning. It was definitely not as good as her other highlander books.
It snowed a teeny bit yesterday but is super cold today. The high is like 21.
my read shelf:
I started Legend by Marie Lu. I'm somehow already 50% through, so it must be pretty good! I think things are just about to get really interesting.
It snowed here this morning. Not a lot, about in inch or so.

I'm about halfway through Eleanor and Park. For some reason, this one weighs on me. I LOVE her writing but the characters are so real that I have to pace myself.
I just started The Winter Sea and I love, love, love it. Amazing writing and beautifully captured scenes. Everything just rolls so smoothly.
I finished:
Catch Me by Claire Contreras. Light contemporary romance.
The Hundred Thousand Kingdoms by N.K. Jemisen. This was a unique epic fantasy.
A few bodice rippers for good measure.
My Badges:
It snowed a bunch last night! Took me an hour and a half to get to work (usually 35 mins), but it looks beautiful out there.
Still on Steven Tyler's biography. This guy cracks me up. Sex, drugs, rock n roll. It's exactly what you'd expect, but his wording and metaphors are actually really funny. I also finished All Summer Long by Susan Mallery last night.
