I am in need of some good reading material. I need some fantasy to escape. I am rather a creature of habit. When I like certain authors then I will only read their books. But now I am in need of new authors to read and books to enjoy.
Only problem is that our local library is not very well stocked and most of the bookshops are very expensive. I don't mind paying a lot of money for a good book. But one mistake I usually make is that after I bought a book, it doesn't read as well as it did in the shop and I don't seem able to get past the first three chapters. I suppose you can say I am a fussy reader. If I don't like a certain writing style or the voice in which the author writes, I won't the finish a book no matter how much I paid for it.
I never read a lot in the bookshops because of the way the clerks always glare at you but next time I will simply just not give a damn. Because there is no way I am spending another dime on a book that sucks.

Hello friends. How are you today? I am so happy and grateful to be co-hosting IWSG today with my awesome co-hosts, Alexia Chamberlynn...
Honestly, it's been a while since I read any good books so the ones that I mention are older and you may have read them.
ReplyDeleteThe Wheel of Time series by Robert Jordan/Brandon Sanderson. This is a serious time commitment.
Janet Evanovich's Stephanie Plum series is great for a laugh.
I tried Patricia Brigg's Mercy Thompson series. It's not bad.
I am enjoying your posts.
Thanks for the book recommendations. I will definitely try some of them out. My sister has actually read the Stephanie Plum series and she enjoyed it. She loved the grandmother especially and LuLu.
ReplyDeleteI am happy you're enjoying my posts. Sometimes I astound myself with all the stupid stuff I get myself into.
