Sigh. Finished "Echo In The Bone". :-\   But hey....that means a visit to Amazon or Barnes and Noble!!  ;D
In the meantime re-reading Feast of Crows to refresh my memory a bit in anticipation of the 5th book....

Lady Rebecca

I finished "How to Train Your Dragon" last night (the movie is way way better than the book), and now I've moved on to "The Wake of the Lorelei Lee" which is the latest installment of the Bloody Jack Adventure series by L.A. Meyer. I highly recommend the series to anyone who likes pirates or adventurous historical fiction. It's one of my favorites.

I really loved the first three Shannara books.

I read them all some years back. And spotted them a month ago on the shelf at a half price book store so I thought I would reread the series.

I'm working thru them for the first by via audiobook.  Just not enough time in my days to sit down and thumb through paper like I used to.

Are audio books any good? I thought about getting a couple of my favorites on them but sort of on the fence about it.

Nim and I use audio books on trips. They are great! They allow you to enjoy a book while driving.

I like them for on the road.  And with a decent library, you can download books for free.

Just started Jane Austen's Mansfield Park. I've never read it before, but I saw the most recent version and really enjoyed it.

Mairte

Considering re-reading "The Dragonbone Chair" by Tad Williams until I can get some more new books.("New" is a loose term here. Even raggedy ones are new if I havent read them!  ;D )
