I loved Daughter of Smoke and Bone but haven't read the sequel yet. I also enjoyed Sideways on a Scooter and I hope you will too!
ReplyDeleteI am looking forward to reading it! I love reading about different cultures and countries.
DeleteI want to listen to Days of Blood & Starlight, but my library doesn't have it yet--in any format. :-( Enjoy your week!
ReplyDeleteOh no! I really want to start utilizing audiobooks more, maybe I will get the first book on audio so I can listen to it with my husband. I want him to read it, but it would be kind of fun to listen to.
DeleteThe Taylor series is on my wishlist since they have been so popular.
ReplyDeleteHave a great reading week!

It was really good! Better actually than I expected. :)
DeleteSideways on a Scooter looks very appealing to me and I always like a memoir set in a warm part of the world (when I'm cold). I look forward to your review.
ReplyDeleteYes! It is always a little disorienting to me, but I do enjoy reading about warm places when I am cold.
DeleteI enjoyed Sideways on a Scooter and I hope you do so too.
ReplyDeleteI am excited to read it - I have always wanted to visit India.
DeleteMan, those Lainie Taylor books sound intense. Going to have to check some of them out.
ReplyDeleteI really enjoyed the first one!
DeleteYou had a good reading week. I still need to read the more recent Newbery Honor books. My Monday report is here. Happy reading!
ReplyDeleteI am trying to read them all, from the last couple of years. Breaking Stalin's Nose was amazing.
DeleteSideways on a Scooter sounds like a good one. I'm fascinated by India!
ReplyDeleteMe too! It is a dream of mine to visit one day. :)
DeleteSome great books there, I loved Daughter Of Smoke & Bone but I still haven't got around to reading Days Of Blood & Starlight! Happy reading :)
ReplyDeleteMy Monday Round-Up

ReplyDeleteWhatcha readin’ this week @ the Brunette Librarian
I'm so glad you liked Daughter of Smoke and Bone! I was surprised how much I liked the sequel once I got into it, because I fear the sophomore slump.
ReplyDeleteSideways on a scooter looks good. I'm fascinated by anyuthing to do with India after travelling there when I was 18!
ReplyDeleteHave a great week ! :-)
