What Are You Reading? ~ November 16, 2016

What are you Reading?  Let me know what your current read is, what you recently finish reading, and what you plan on reading next! 

Here's my list: 



I'm just starting For Darkness Shows the Stars by Diana Peterfreund. I'm looking forward to this story because it combines genres that I love! An Austenesque/SciFi/Dystopian! I don't know why I've put off reading it for so long. 

I've made good progress into A Clash of Kings by George R.R. Martin. I'm more than halfway through! :)


I recently finished Dear Mr. Knightley by Katherine Reay. I loved it! It was wonderful to read all of Sam's letters to Mr. Knightley and to see how she was able to break through the walls she had put up during her childhood. I cried with Sam, and I rejoiced with her. I also enjoyed Sam's use of quotes throughout the story!



What's next? I think I'll read Alight by Scott Sigler. This is the second in the Generations Trilogy series. You can read my review for the first book, Alive, here

  1. Yay, glad you enjoyed Dear Mr. Knightley. That was such a touching story. I recently finished For Darkness Shows the Stars and liked it so much that I went back for the prequel and the novella that is the prequel for the second book in the series. (the first prequel definitely works best after FDStS).
    Hope the Alright sequel is as strong as the first. I just finished Secrets in the Snow (a mystery with Jane Austen as the detective) and now I'm going back to dystopian for Ashen Winter.

    1. Hi, Meredith! Yes, it was very well-done! I'll have to read more from Katherine Reay - I just checked and I have Lizzy and Jane on my Kindle! May have to read that soon! :) I also want to reread Daddy Long-Legs! I read it a long time ago. I also love the movie; the one with Fred Astaire and Leslie Caron. As a kid I'd always watch it when it came on TV.
