An explosion of books this week. Every genre under the sun. A Fire Upon the Deep is the Tor Book Club giveaway this month.
I was thrilled to get an eARC of Silver Silence. I had to start the Psy-Changeling series twice, because the first time it just didn’t take. But once it finally got its claws into me, I was all in. So a new book in the series is always a treat. It’s funny, but as much as I love Psy-Changeling, I never managed to get into the Archangel/Guild Hunter series. And I did try. I guess it either didn’t grab me right, or didn’t grab me at the right time.
I kept waffling about Magpie Murders, but it turned up as the number one pick on Library Reads for June, so I decided to get a copy while I still had the chance. We’ll see if it’s as good as The House of Silk. For anyone who is curious, Silver Silence was #2 on the same list, and The Alice Network was #6. It’s always an interesting (and useful) list, especially if your TBR stack is thinning a bit. Or if you just suffer from abibliophobia, like me.

I’m currently reading The Alice Network and it is freaking amazing. Best book I’ve read this year and I’m not even finished yet!
Wonderful selection to read from this week. I don’t know the feeling of having a thinning TBR pile, somehow it keeps accumulating. I think I may have to go on a book buying band to thin it. Enjoy your new reads and have a wonderful day.![My Profile](https://www.readingreality.net/wp-content/plugins/commentluv/images/littleheartplus.png)
