Usually I read one book, perhaps re-read another, depending on what my mood is like. However on Tuesday I had a great reading day! I received Dead Ice in the mail, and started that before lunch. I powered through it in about 5 hours - perhaps 5½ hours - and was pleasantly surprised as to how much I enjoyed it after recent disappointments in the Anita Blake series.
Then I pulled Uprooted by Naomi Novik from my TBR shelves. It took a little while to get into the swing of things, but I really enjoyed this book. Would have loved to keep reading, especially with the ending we got. Will have a review up soon.
As if that wasn't enough (I'd just read 1011 pages!), I decide to start on another book. The City's Son by Tom Pollock. This book has been on my TBR bookshelf for more than 6 months. I don't know why I chose this book, but I'm so glad I did. I enjoyed my romp through the bowels of London. Fighting iron wolves and seeing the amazing characters that Pollock created out of the industrial landscape. My only problem was that I don't have books 2 or 3 in the trilogy. I hate when that happens!
By the time I closed the book and turned off my light it was about 11pm. I think my eyes were dragging on the ground - in the sand! But it was worth it.
So on Tuesday I read a total of 3 books or 1468 pages! That's longer than The Lord of the Rings! Wow, very proud of myself {patting myself on the back}.
NOTE: I woke up the next morning and my eyes were so sore that I just sat and watched Penny Dreadful all afternoon. Couldn't read a darn thing! Fingers crossed that I can finally jump into my TBR shelves again ;-D
Until next time,
