What Are you Reading? Mondays (6)

Well, it's a Manic Monday once again, so it's time for "What Are You Reading?", a meme hosted by J. Kaye. Check it out and tell us what you are reading.


Last week, the plan was to read:
The Name of the Wind by Patrick Rothfuss
Zombie Haiku
and maybe a couple of tales from Grimm's Grimmest for Helluva Halloween.. I read the first two, not so much the last. So it's been bumped to this week, along with:

A Kiss of Shadows by Laurell K. Hamilton
Maus: My Father Bleeds History by Art Spiegelman
Eternal by Cynitha Leitich Smith

I'll might squeeze in one more, but I'm not sure what.

Mentioned in this thread:

  2. I think I saw the Zombie Haiku book in the store the other day.. It definitely looked interesting especially the way it was designed!

  6. Some of these books seem interesting, though i must say, I have no idea what "Eternal" is... nice cover though. And yes, I have been guilty of buying a totally just by its cover... well,maybe not buying it, but the cover lead me to read the jacket.

    I'm reading Blogs :) and "TrypTych" by Karin Slaughter.

  8. Allison: The design is my favorite thing about Zombie Haiku. It is pretty spot on through out.

    J.Kaye: I got your tweet right after posting! At least that men everything was fresh in my mind.

    Juju and Lauren: Eternal is a follow up to Tantalize, which I liked, so I am excited for it. I'm working it into the Wild Things Challenge on Gr.

    Sheila and Jennifer: Yay! I love introducing people to new books! Maus is excellent and grounbreaking, Name of the Wind has taken overmy brain.

    Jm: I am so guilty of cover-coveting (oh, I am so copyrighting that!). I am always so disappointed when something doesn't live up to it's cover, because I want to like it and display it's prettiness, but I don't display shitty books...

    Esme: No prob!

  9. Cover-Coveting.. nice :). You should totally Copyright that!

    Not displaying shitty books is on my "must have" list of blogs I follow.

  11. Ugh it took me forever to get through Bones of Faerie, not happy. Anyway let me know how Eternal is, I really really didn't like Tantalize and I believe they're by the same writer.

  12. Good list. Hope you enjoy your reading this week!

  13. Yep, same author as Tantalize. I thought it had issues, but for the most part, I liked it. I will definitely let you know.
