Slow And Easy

I'm taking it easy this weekend, trying to recuperate and do some needed writing. It frustrates me so much when I can't get my pages done...when did it become so hard? ;-P

I started reading the third book of the Rogue Mage series by Faith Hunter, HOST. It has really turned out into a compelling series of books, but I'm starting to be worried because Thorn, the heroine, is showing the symptoms of hidden superpowers. She is an Omega Mage, tada, you know--the One. Let's hope she doesn't end up with a magic vajayjay that beckons all magic and mortal beings into sexual longing for her and only her. Nevertheless, the world building that includes seraphs and apocalyptic biblical verses is fascinating.

I can't get over how bored I was of the first third of that first book (Bloodring) that I'd put it away! Have you ever done that--thinking a book isn't really your type and putting it down, and then later, on a retry, you can't stop reading? Why do you think that is so? If the time element had been several years, I would chalk it up to me being a different person so my reaction to the book would be different, but this was only a week in between.

Anyway, I hope there's a fourth book coming. I am such a series-addict.

Any new books this month that you've read or are looking forward to?
