Recent Updates and Currently Reading | April 14

I forgot to mention last week the readalong schedule has been posted for The Winter People over at Ladies of Horror Fiction. I know a few of you were interested in reading it with us next month.

The Winter People Readalong

Posted Last Week


Book Review | The Last by Hanna Jameson

Finished Reading


The Last by Hanna Jameson Write Your Novel From the Middle by James Scott Bell The Dark Game by Jonathan Janz

The Last by Hanna Jameson ⭐⭐⭐⭐★ - (Loved it!) You can read my review here.

Write Your Novel From the Middle by James Scott Bell ⭐⭐⭐★★ - I needed a bit of a break from fiction, and I'm in the writing book mood right now. This "midpoint" concept wasn't enough to warrant a full book, though.

The Dark Game by Jonathan Janz ⭐⭐⭐⭐★ - I enjoyed this book on multiple levels. Stay tuned for a review this week!

Currently Reading


The Invited by Jennifer McMahon 2,000 to 10,000 by Rachel Aaron

The Invited by Jennifer McMahon - This is a buddy read with the LOHF team. I'm just starting it, and I'm really looking forward to this one.

2,000 to 10,000 by Rachel Aaron - This is a fascinating look into Rachel Aaron's writing process.

  5. I just finished reading two fab books: An Empty Nest by Sandy Day which is superb fiction, and Writer Get Noticed by Colleen M Story which is thoughtful marketing advice for authors. Highly recommend them both :-)

  8. I love Lansdale’s Hap & Leonard series. They are fun and just a little gritty.

    Have a great reading week

  9. I'm getting ready to start "Magic Bleeds" - the 4th Kate Daniels book tonight. I just finished "The Dark Game" last night which was cutting it close because my blog tour post is up today. That being said, I really enjoyed it a lot and look forward to reading more from the author.
