The stacks may be getting shorter as the year winds to a close, but there is still plenty to love in each of them. This particular stack contains not one or two, but THREE books that I’ve been waiting for – one of which I didn’t even KNOW I was waiting for. Those would be […]
I’m not sure whether book availability – or at least eARC availability – is easing its way out of the annual holiday slump, or whether it’s just that a lot of covers have finally attached themselves to eARCs I’ve had for a bit. This week’s stack is just a bit taller than the previous few. […]
Yes, I preordered the audio of The Discord of Gods seriously, seriously early. I mean, really, I only have FIVE months to wait. I have an eARC, so I might start early. BUT this seems to be one of those series that just works better for me in audio. So I’ll probably wait. The other […]
I’m putting this post together on Thanksgiving, as our company is coming on Black Friday. Whenever, wherever and how many ever Thanksgiving dinners you managed to have, I hope that you had a terrific Turkey Day! Speaking of thankful things, Audible had a sale early this week. I’m a sucker for Audible’s sales, especially as […]
This has not been the greatest reading week, so I’m happy that the new stack isn’t huge. Not that I didn’t have good books this week, just that this week has been a bit fraught with the bathroom remodeling – which is still is progress at least through Monday. It’s hard to read – it’s […]
Is anyone else having trouble believing that it’s November already? This year has whipped by so fast I think I have whiplash. That Thanksgiving is less than two weeks away feels a bit unreal. But I’m starting to see books on NetGalley and Edelweiss that won’t be out until August of 2022. That’s just WRONG. […]
Lots of good-looking books this week. Whether they are good reading books is yet to be determined. Howsomever, there’s one book on here that I remember very fondly, Bride of the Rat God by Barbara Hambly. When I read – and loved – this same author’s Scandal in Babylon a few weeks ago, I didn’t […]
I swear, on Wednesday it still felt like summer. On Friday, as I type this, it’s cold and damp and feels like winter blew in all at once. We even got out the flannel sheets last night! I wasn’t expecting that. I had to get out a jacket this morning and I discovered that the […]
Every once in a while, the daily deal from Audible provides me with a real winner. I’m in the middle of Day Zero right now, and so far, it’s awesome. It’s certainly WAY more awesome than the $2.99 it cost me, so I’m considering it a serious win. This week’s stack is fairly short. I […]
This feels all too much like one of those weeks where I might have forgotten to put the text into this post and left the “XXX” – but I managed to avert that fate! For some reason, this has felt like a particularly long week at Chez Reading Reality. But we made it! It’s the […]
