It being the final week of the year, I think I can safely close out the Georgette Heyer Reading Challenge. I read: I was trying to get to level 2 (10 books), but I’m ok falling one short. That means I have one physical book and one Kindle book left still to look forward

Read for the Georgette Heyer Reading Challenge. This book of short stories was a perfect travel read. It was also fun to experience her writing in a shorter form. They’re probably even a little more mad cap than usual because she needed to pack so much into so few pages. I’m also amazed how much

This is actually a reread – I think I got this book out of a bargain bin at some point, and it’s been hanging out in my stored books since. I did a catalog of those last month, and this was the only one I really couldn’t decide if I either definitely wanted to keep

There is something about returning to YA authors you read when you were actually a young adult – I do get a lovely nostalgic feeling when I read their work, even if it’s a series that came about after I left that demographic. Battle Magic tells the story of what is basically the invasion of

Well, it’s time for my annual read the newest (to me) Hunger Games book at the same time as the movie comes out so I’m not spoiled by something random on Pinterest. (Seriously, the Geek feed in Pinterest has the most randomly spoilerific things if you’re not caught up on various fandoms. But I digress.)

It turns out that the larger galaxy is populated by a bunch of fairly peaceful species, and when a warrior group called the Others starts to invade the Confederation’s territory, they’re completely unprepared to fight back. Instead,

You know – I think the best lesson to take away from this series is that families are complicated, and life is complicated, and you’ll have to work at both all the time, regardless of when you lived. In the last book, Ross was to be brought to trial for supposedly ring-leading the pirating of

This book of novella-sized stories rounds out the lives of the main characters of the Black Jewels books. I’ll admit – I was a little surprised and pleased to see these. One thing about these books is that most of the characters are from some long lived races (the father figure is over 50,000 years

With it being the second to last day of the month, and while I am a fast reader, I am not that fast, I think it’s safe to say I’m done with the RIP Challenge for the year. The challenge was to read at least four books in the challenge categories. I managed six:
