It’s Monday! What are you reading?

I actually had a big reading weekend. I had to hold off writing this post until the last minute or it was going to be out of date.

I’ve been devouring the Hidden Legacy series by Ilona Andrews this week. I’m on book 4. I slowly going through the Terry Pratchett essays on my iPad. I finally finished the book that I had in my bathroom (tell me you all have bathroom books and I’m not a weirdo) and have but A Bicycle Built for Two Billion in there.

I grabbed three audiobooks from the library because I wasn’t sure what I was going to settle into. I listened to a little bit of The Serviceberry and I’m really liking Finding My Way.

I abandoned the sci-fi series the husband and I were listening to together. There was a lot of talking and not much happening. He didn’t agree with me at all. So he’s listening to it himself as he is stuck in the house recovering from ankle surgery still. He just summed up a 16 hour audiobook for me in a few sentences so I think that proves my point though. He’s going to keep going with that series by himself and summarizing for me. I picked up A Judgement of Powers for us to continue a series that we’ve been listening to together.

I was listening to this audiobook and it was promising. I liked the premise of a vampire murdering criminals and the detective who is trying to find the killer. But it got very hard into the “a man looked at this woman who is mine so I must kill him” territory. That’s bad enough but I was at a point in the story when the woman didn’t even know that the man who she “belonged to” existed yet. I looked at reviews to see if this was going to upended and it didn’t seem to be. I decided to let this go.

I have this out through Kindle Unlimited and I’m not sure if I’m going to finish it. It’s interesting because I read the first book in the series this week and liked it. But in this book the main character is just making really stupid decisions and I had to set it aside because it was making my brain hurt.

I had the same experience with another series by this author. I really liked the first book and then DNFed the second for the same reason. I may go back to this one in a bit and see if it gets better.
