    I'm reading the Outlander series! Love it. Currently waiting for "A Breath of Snow and Ashes" from the library.

    Currently reading, "You Are Not So Smart: Why You Have Too Many Friends on Facebook, Why Your Memory Is Mostly Fiction, and 46 Other Ways You're Deluding Yourself" by David McRaney. Nonfiction about how psychological biases color our perceptions (and internal conceptions of truth). Very, very interesting.

    The Book of Beasts by John Barrowman and his sister. Also I guess, technically, the Wind in the Keyhole from Stephen King but frankly I started it over a month ago and it's just so boring I don't know when/if I will finish it.

    I just finished Four by Veronica Roth. So over waiting for the 3rd of the Kingkiller Chronicles...

    I'll get to Four eventually too. Looks really good and I have it already. I would love to see a prequel about Tris's mom. Such a great character and, from what we know about her, she just always intrigued me.

    Yes it's pre-ordered. But it will be nice to understand her more, she confuses the hell out of me.

    Kingkiller Chronicles has been on my "must read" list for too long. I'm finishing Queen of the Tearling right now but these will have to be next.

    Murder mystery series by Victoria Houston ...... "Dead Lake" ...... "Dead Jitterbug" ...... "Dead Madonna" ...... you get the idea ..... quite a bunch of characters ...... reminds me of the movie "Fargo" ...... and lots of references to fly-fishing, boating, hunting, drinking and so on :drinker:

    Great fun !

    I have to re-read them to be honest, I read the first ones pretty fast then had to wait months between the last few, so yes it got a bit confusing at times, lol. But yes Brandon Sanderson did an amazing job (but again, I love what that guy does anyway, plus he's a very cool fellow).
