Finally finished Order of the Phoenix, and I've moved on to Half Blood Prince. I figure, even though I didn't make my read-by goal, I'll finish out the series one more time.

Grov

A Dance with Dragons.  Finally.  After waiting 6 years.  Latest in the Song of Fire and Ice Trilogy Series.  (Game of Thrones)

Grov, halfway through the Dance. I probably could finish it sooner but have a lot going on.
I HOPE the author takes no longer than a couple of years to finish Winds of Winter!!!!!! This last was too long a stretch.

I just found 18 pages of Books I need to put on my To read list

As for what I am reading.  I have a kindle so there for my list is long, but currently I am jumping between two books

The first is call Area 187 - Almost Hell, by Eric Lowther.  The Author happens to be a friend of mine, but the read is good if you are into Zombies, with a strange twist.

The other is Searching for Pemberley, by Mary Lydon  Simonsen - A search for Jane Austens inspirations of Pride and Prejudice.  Not a bad read if you don't mind 1940's lingo

I've just finished Sherrilyn Kenyou's Infinity: Chronicles of Nick and Bad Attitude, the sequel to the first.  I have a list of about 15 more, then I'll be on the search again, and I know where to now start looking.
Why do I feel like I've worn something like this before?

Grov

Still working through A Dance with Dragons as time permits but before that, I enjoyed Peter & Max (Fable/fantasy),  Paul is Undead (Beatles/Zombie history re-write), and Hunchback Experience (Steampunk-ish).

Okay...I hadn't heard of Paul Is Undead. I looked it up and it is now on my Must Read list.

They certainly take some new liberties with zombie lore.

I'm going to read this one - right after I finish Divine Misfortune by A. Lee Martinez (who is my newest favorite author)

Being a Beatles fan (yeah...I was around when they started...) I'm actually more interested to see what they do with Beatles lore. The Rutles is one of my favourite comedies for that reason.

Thanks!  This one look promising.
  I'm reading Jackie Kessler-Hells Belles.   Great so far, I like the premise that heavenly Angels take turns running Hell.  And it's under new management.

Since I have just been reading a little in the morning and evening, I am still on "Dance".
Next up, going to read George R.R. Martins, Hedge Knight and Hedge Knight 2 (I think there is a third as well). They were recommended to me because of the "Dunk and Egg" stories...
