Anywhoodle. I only have five this week. These are not in any particular order.
- The Road by Cormick McCormick. Wait... that's not his name.
- Clockwork Angel by Cassandra Clare. The reason I haven't gotten past the third page is sort of stupid, but the font was too big! Large fonts make me feel like the author/publisher/type-setter is talking down to me. Plus I'm going through a bit of a rough patch with supernatural.
- The Coming Plague by Laurie Garret. I went through a very big pathology-of-bloody-diseases phase. This one came in on the tail-end of that phase. I'm sure the plague has come by now, that's how long it's been sitting on my shelf.
- Dead-Tossed Waves by Carrie Ryan. I lurrrrrved Forest of Hands and Teeth so much. The only thing that's kept me from starting this one is, well, I'm bein' a big ol' chicken. You gotta be in a certain mood to have livin' daylights scared out of you, and I just haven't been in that mood yet.
- Linger by Maggie Stiefvater. Again, I really liked the first book, but in this case it's not fear that's held me back, it's plot. I was reading this at the same time as my sister, no big deal, we just used two bookmarks. Well, I was loving the story, it was good, I got to about page 40 or something like that before I opened it to the wrong mookmark. I started reading it from the mid-way point. And. I. Didn't. Even. Notice. It took me several pages to realize that I had skipped forward by a good chunk because the story seemed as though it hadn't really moved on. Not good.

hungry for justice

Not noticing you missed a big part of the story does not recommend a book! I read the first book in the series and liked it, but didn't love it. I'm not sure if I should continue with the series after reading this..
Lol - the plague's done come n gone, ZG
Still, it sounds pretty good and let us know if it turns out to be a must read!
Ah, The Dead Tossed Waves ... LOVED IT TO PIECES! Am currently frothing to get the third installment due out this month ;D
Enjoy your new books, ZG -
