My October Reading

I got more read than I expected this month, so I’m pleased with that. I’m still loving The Wars of Light and Shadow and they are still taking up most of my reading time (and a lot of my available energy).

1. Son of the Shadows – Juliet Marillier (608pp)
   Sevenwaters, Book 2; Fantasy; 9/10
2. Whisper of Sin – Nalini Singh (unknown)
   Psy-Changeling, Book 8.5; Short Story; Paranormal Romance; 8/10
3. Here, There Be Monsters – Meljean Brook (unknown)
   The Iron Seas, Book 0.5; Short Story; Steampunk Romance; 8/10
4. Anatomy of an Epidemic – Robert Whitaker (416pp)
   Non-Fiction; Library Book; 6/10
5. The Immortal Life of Henrietta Lacks – Rebecca Skloot (369pp)
   Non-Fiction; Library Book; 10/10
6. Warhost of Vastmark – Janny Wurts (576pp)
   Wars of Light and Shadow, Book 3; Fantasy; 10/10
7. Tea with the Black Dragon – R. A. MacAvoy (176pp)
   Fantasy; eBook; Reread; 7/10
8. Cryoburn – Lois McMaster Bujold (345pp)
   Vorkosigan, Book 14; SF; 10/10
9. How to Fossilise Your Hamster – Mick O’Hare (256pp)
   Non-Fiction; Library Book; DNF
10. Ten Things I Love About You – Julia Quinn (377pp)
    Bevelstokes, Book 3; Romance; eBook; 7/10

Best book of the month = Warhost of Vastmark (Cryoburn was a very close second)
Biggest disappointment of the month = Tea With the Black Dragon (because it wasn’t as good as I remember, not because it was bad)
