My big stack of books gets bigger every month and I can’t stop myself. I mean, books, it’s just books. They can’t hurt me.
Right? Right?
— Cats with wings. CATS with WINGS. Do I really need to say more?
— This is a much smaller sized version of the book I loved as a kid, but it’s got new illustrations
— I tried and tried to find this used, but no one wants to give up their copy! I broke down and had to have it.
— Yeah! Candy book! I love Donald Westlake’s Parker Series. This is #12.
— I love alternate Sherlock stories.
— Bought this mostly because my father loves Seanan McGuire. I’m giving this one a read before I let him at it though.
— Oh, John, how do you make me read outside of my genre? Inquiring minds want to know.
— Sometimes short stories help ease me into the novels of an author. I’ve been trying to get into Strange & Norrell for years. Maybe this will help.
— Stories from someone who’s name I vaguely recognize.
— More for my father than me, but I keep meaning to read this series. Especially once I discovered that they’re local authors.
— I read their first book together many moons ago. I never knew there was another.
— Cyberpunk, baby.
— And this is … more of literary novel than a fantasy, I think. But, I’m going to try it anyway.
— Picked up because it’s a thriller that’s written by a Muslim woman and set in the middle east. I’m trying to broaden my reading next year.
