Happy Monday! It was -24 here when I woke-up this morning, so wherever you are I hope it's somewhere warmer than here!

What books did you start/finish/totally neglect/make good progress on this weekend?

    I finally finished A Clash of Kings!!!  I have been reading it forever.  It was pretty good just looong!  I also got about halfway through Lover Revealed.  I read a bit of Chesapeake Blue too.

    I read 3 trade paperbacks of Walking Dead, 14, 15 and 16 and I finished Dream Thieves on audiobook.  I read a tiny bit of HP and the Order of the Phoenix.

    Made pretty good progress on Chasing Fire by Nora Roberts. About halfway through now and it's starting to get heart-pounding in multiple respects!

    I'd had it on my list for awhile and hadn't gotten around to it. Finally picked it up for FBC and glad I did! It's really good!

    I got about 200 pages read of The Dream Thieves which is due back to the library today. I don't think I'm going to finish it. I guess I'll go back on the wait list to finish it.

    Neglected everything. We were visiting my parents though so things were a bit busy.
    It was only -18 this morning. I hope you are at least getting all this sunshine with your freezing temps!!

    I got about 25% through Those Who Save Us but I'm struggling with it.  Plus we were busy busy busy and had to deal with drama with the in-laws pet sitter while they are in Cancun.  This weekend exhausted me.

    On Saturday I finished NOS4A2 by Joe Hill (for FBC, very good!), read all of Book of Broken Hearts by Sarah Ockler (for fun, cute but nothing special) and started reading Corpse in the Koryo but I'm not very far into yet.

    I started and made it about halfway through Gunmetal Magic in the Kate Daniels world. I am looking forward to finishing it soon.

    I finished listening to Night of Cake and Puppets.  I'm sad it is over.  I also listened to all of Undead for the Holidays - a free book from Audible.  I just started listening to the third book in the Incorrigible Children series.

    I read The List, a pretty good YA novel, and I also read The Madness Underneath.  One nice thing about freezing weather in Minnesota - you have more time to read!

    I finished The Black Fire Concerto.  I gave it 3 stars.  It's just not my sort of story.  Zombie-like creatures, vividly gross descriptions, just meh.  Now I'm reading Anne Rice's The Wolves of Midwinter, and I like it so far but it's pretty rambly.  Thankfully, I like rambling along with AR.

    I did good this weekend, finished 3 books!
    Eleanor and Park: I really enjoyed this one! I wasn't super happy about the ending but otherwise thought it was great.
    Catch Me: Not a fan. I didn't like the MC but the guy was swoon-worthy.
    This Song Will Save Your Life: LOVED.

    I read a little over 200 pages in Firefly Lane by Kristin Hannah. It's okay so far. Not much is happening and I'm just kind of hoping something happens soon.
