message 8: by Narilka (new)

Narilka | 5453 comments Just finished #3 of The Lunar Chronicles, Cress. I'm rating it 3.5 stars and still deciding if I want to round up or down, though I have it at 4 at the moment. One novella and one book to go.


message 9: by Narilka (new)

Narilka | 5453 comments Now I'm up to 21 series in progress having finished the Six of Crows buddy read. Thankfully it's a duology and I really want to see how the story ends. 99% sure I'll mark this series off soon :)


message 10: by Narilka (new)

Narilka | 5453 comments Finished Crooked Kingdom (loved it) which finishes off another series. Woot!


message 11: by Narilka (new)

Narilka | 5453 comments Reading Carpe Jugulum wraps up the Witches sub-series of Discworld for me.


message 12: by Narilka (new)

Narilka | 5453 comments One book down, one more to go for the Lunar Chronicles. Fairest was not at all what I was expecting for Levana's back story. She is messed up!


message 13: by Virginie (new)

Virginie | 6109 comments Good job :)


message 14: by Narilka (new)

Narilka | 5453 comments I progressed the cozy mystery Cats in Trouble series by finishing off #5, The Cat, the Mill and the Murder. Getting there slowly but surely.


message 15: by Narilka (new)

Narilka | 5453 comments Another one done! The Ghost Brigades is #2 in the Old Man's War series.


message 16: by Narilka (new)

Narilka | 5453 comments Finished The Tyrant's Law which progresses the Dagger and the Coin series. Half way there. That was one hell of a hook on that ending. If it wasn't for a buddy read I'd probably be straight on to book four :)


message 17: by Narilka (new)

Narilka | 5453 comments Darn these buddy reads ;) Finishing Burn for Me brings me up to 22 series in progress. Thankfully we'll be reading them all as a group :) I love Ilona Andrews. The book was a lot of fun.


message 18: by Narilka (new)

Narilka | 5453 comments The Widow's House progresses the Dagger and the Coin series. Only one more left. This has been a pretty great series over all.


message 19: by Mayim (new)

Mayim de Vries | 2948 comments How do you like it? It is on my list.


message 20: by Narilka (last edited May 03, 2018 06:24AM) (new)

Narilka | 5453 comments I'm enjoying it. The fourth book was quite satisfying. For ratings, they've been 3.5/4/3.5/4 or 4.5 so far. I'm still debating the rating for book 4 which I'll probably decide as I write up the review later today. It is a reasonably complex epic fantasy with a slower pace told in alternating POV chapters. You have a lot of races of humanity, politics, an interesting world, war and some great battle scenes, an ambiguous bad guy, choices and unintended consequences. There is some magic though it's down played. The world building is layered upon in each book. Here's my review from book 1 if you're curious: /review/show...

Edit: I have not read any of the author's other series so no idea how they compare.


message 21: by Mayim (new)

Mayim de Vries | 2948 comments I love Daniel Abraham. I'm reading his Long Price Quartet now and I already know it's not going to be the last of his books.


message 22: by Narilka (new)

Narilka | 5453 comments I'm enjoying the Dagger and the Coin enough that I would like to try the Long Price Quartet at some point. I do want to whittle down my list of active series first before cycling it in :)


message 23: by Mayim (new)

Mayim de Vries | 2948 comments That is a very wise strategy. cling to it and don't repeat my mistakes. :D


message 24: by Narilka (new)

Narilka | 5453 comments Work's been slow this morning so I knocked out that review. Ended up with 4.5 stars rounded down to 4 here on GR.


message 25: by Narilka (new)

Narilka | 5453 comments I started my journey to The Edge with On the Edge. It was a fun read. Review: /review/show...


message 26: by Narilka (new)

Narilka | 5453 comments Finished Tricked which is #4 in the Iron Druid Chronicles.


message 27: by Narilka (new)

Narilka | 5453 comments Another one down! Finishing Goldenhand completes the Abhorsen series :)


message 28: by Narilka (new)

Narilka | 5453 comments I'm now caught up on The Book of the Ancestor. Grey Sister was awesome. Really looking forward to book 3 next year.


message 29: by Narilka (new)

Narilka | 5453 comments Finishing The Spider's War completes the Dagger and the Coin series. I might just get my "in progress" number under 20 yet :)


message 30: by Narilka (new)

Narilka | 5453 comments I completed White Hot which progresses the Hidden Legacy series. I also visited my favorite used book store today and now my Future Plans increased by 7 potential series. I am insane lol


message 31: by Silvana (last edited May 28, 2018 01:49AM) (new)

Silvana (silvaubrey) | 1958 comments What Discworld novels are you aiming at? I have a few Death novels (Thief of Time included) and two Industrial Revolution books (Moving Pictures, The Truth) unread. Maybe we can BR them sometimes.

What I have left to go of those two sub series...

Death: Thief of Time
Industrial Revolution: Going Postal, Making Money, Raising Steam

Discworld is one of those series that has great reread potential :)


message 33: by Silvana (new)

Silvana (silvaubrey) | 1958 comments Ah, too bad I already read those three Moist books.

Anyway, let me know whether you want to buddy read Thief of Time around September (which would be my earliest open BR schedule) :D


message 34: by Narilka (new)

Narilka | 5453 comments September would be great. I don't have any other buddy reads for September yet.


message 35: by Silvana (new)

Silvana (silvaubrey) | 1958 comments Cool! Let's do it on the 8th and I'll request a thread. Many thanks!


message 36: by Narilka (new)

Narilka | 5453 comments I finished off the Themis Files with Only Human and added Damar as In Progress since a group read for book 1 starts tomorrow.


message 37: by Narilka (new)

Narilka | 5453 comments The Blue Sword is done! One Damar book to go.


message 38: by Narilka (new)

Narilka | 5453 comments Progressed The Edge series by reading the second book, Bayou Moon.


message 39: by Narilka (new)

Narilka | 5453 comments Caught up on the Hidden Legacy with Wildfire. Now the long wait while the authors write the next one.


message 40: by Narilka (new)

Narilka | 5453 comments Progressed The Edge with Fate's Edge. Only one more to go :)


message 41: by Narilka (new)

Narilka | 5453 comments Crap. Added a new series with Daughter of Smoke & Bone :D


message 42: by Narilka (new)

Narilka | 5453 comments Woooo! I finished something!!! The Lunar Chronicles are all done.


message 43: by Narilka (new)

Narilka | 5453 comments I'm all caught up on Awaken Online with Evolution. There is no way there won't be a book 4 with how this ended.


message 44: by Mayim (new)

Mayim de Vries | 2948 comments Narilka wrote: "Woooo! I finished something!!! The Lunar Chronicles are all done."

I hope you like those. It's one of my favourite YA.


message 45: by Narilka (new)

Narilka | 5453 comments @Mayim - I did. It's a solid series. Maybe not as much depth as I would live but they have to be some of the most creative fairy tale re-imaginings I've read.


message 46: by Narilka (new)

Narilka | 5453 comments Completed another series! Reading Steel's Edge finished off The Edge.

I also finished Evolution which brings Awaken Online up to date. With that ending there will definitely be a 4th book.

It's a miracle. I'm under 20 series in progress :D


message 47: by Narilka (new)

Narilka | 5453 comments Two more off the list! I've gone as far as I care to with Old Man's War and just finished off Damar. I'm pleasantly surprised at how much more I enjoyed The Hero and the Crown over the first book.


message 48: by Narilka (new)

Narilka | 5453 comments Finished Days of Blood & Starlight which leaves me with only one more in the series :D


message 49: by Narilka (new)

Narilka | 5453 comments I finished Bloody Rose which catches me up on The Band. Looks like there is a 3rd book in the works.


message 50: by Narilka (new)

Narilka | 5453 comments It is bittersweet that I have wrapped up the Death sub-series with Thief of Time. It still makes me sad to know there will be no more forthcoming Discworld books, even though I have a lot of the series to go.
