• Books I've Enjoyed

    First a few housekeeping notes: I've included links on this page to make it easier for you to find the book if you're interested in it. However, I'm not in any affiliate schemes so I don't make any money if you use the link to buy a copy. I do try to link to independent book stores too, and not just Amazon, in order to spread the love around. Finally, I try and link to the author's sites too, to make it easier to find more about the author as well.

    Sweep of the Heart, Innkeeper Chronicles

    Image from Sweep of the HeartSome of my favorite authors are the husband and wife team behind Ilona Andrews, Ilona and Gordon. I haven't found anything they've written that I haven't liked. Right now I'm re-reading Sweep of the Heart, from their Innkeeper Chronicles series. The first book in this series is Clean Sweep, and Graphic Audio is also turning these books into amazing audio books, too.

    Hunt the Stars

    Book cover for Hunt the Stars If you're in the mood for a little space opera, Jessie Mihalik's book Hunt the Stars is excellent. This is the first book in the Starlight's Shadow series, which has three books in it in total.

    Rosemary and Rue

    Book cover for Rosemary and RueI'm also currently re-reading the October Daye series by Seanan McGuire. It's an urban fantasy series, which is one of my favorite genres. It's about the fae living in a hidden parallel world in San Francisco. If you like urban fantasy, and you've somehow missed this series, you definitely want to give it a try. The firt book in the series is Rosemary and Rue.

    Sapiens: A Brief History of Humankind

    Book cover for Sapiens: A Brief History of Humankind If you're in the mood for some non-fiction, I enjoyed reading Prof. Yuval Noah Harari's Sapiens: A Brief History of Humankind. It's very well written, accessible, and a thought-provoking book about human evolution.
