I‘m a little bit behind. I was traveling all weekend. I had hoped that would give me more reading time, but I had a lot less. I had an absolutely fantastic time though. My daughter and I flew to Toronto to see Stevie Nicks. There was a lot of exploring and eating and dancing and we even got tattoos. But there wasn‘t much reading. I have about 10 chapters left, then I‘ll be back to see what you all thought.

bailedI started my DNF Diaries series on the blog to help me keep track of the books that I dnfed this year. However I‘ve done a horrible job keeping up with them so I‘ll be sneaking some in the rotation to get ready for the end of the year.
I‘m ashamed to say that I dnfed Gardens of the Moon. I want to love this series but it‘s no secret that it‘s long and complex. I‘m a new mom and I just don‘t think it‘s a great time to start this one.
Just when you think things in the tower can‘t get any worse, more bad things happen. I really feel like I need some maps and charts on my wall now that I have so much of the Cosmere in my head.

pickI'm slowly making my way through a re-read of the Essalieyan books, this time on audiobook and have reached The Riven Shield. It's hard to review the individual parts of the Sun Sword, as they are all part of the greater whole. Would I recommend them, yes, if you like epic fantasy, but start at the beginning!
I started a railway puzzle while I finished the Malazan Book of the Fallen. I didn‘t intend to tackle the whole series this year, but I had to at least try the first one as part of my goal to finish everything on my Kobo, and my library had them all on audio, and here we are. I probably would‘ve loved it when I was 14-15. At 42, it felt less than fresh in some ways, but I enjoyed it more often than not & I‘m glad I finally read it. #audiopuzzling
I did not see any of that coming. I very much need to know what happens with Kal now. And I‘m kinda loving Adolin lately. He‘s really growing into himself. “Never be afraid to show a little respect to those you depend upon, friends."

I don‘t know why, but I already like this book better than the last one. And just let me say poor Kaladin. Im very interested to see how this works out for him.

I figured it was a good time to do my big, complicated Hallowe‘en puzzle, and to finish the Malazan Book of the Fallen. It seems like all of us who‘re listening to the series this year did the penultimate book said, “Yeah, I need a break.” It‘s remained available to borrow for the last month, and no one‘s requested it in the couple days since I got it. Since there‘s no run on the grand finale, I‘ll probably intersperse other books every 25% or so.

The reading schedule for Rhythm Of War. I‘m excited to dig into this one. The big ones always excite me. lol #CosmereBuddyRead
