This week’s ginormous stack has more than a few interesting books in it, but there are some I want to point out particularly. First, I’ve already read and reviewed Detroit Kiss and it was just terrific urban fantasy so I’m really glad I picked it up. Two of the titles on this list I think I got just for the title; Saint Death’s Daughter and The Middling Affliction. Come to think of it, The Middling Affliction is also urban fantasy, so I’m sensing a trend. If urban fantasy really is back I’d be delighted. And speaking of delighted, isn’t the cover of In a Garden Burning Gold absolutely gorgeous?

It looks like a lot of fun. He was a character to hate, but not the one I disliked the most in Pride and Prejudice.![My Profile](https://www.readingreality.net/wp-content/plugins/commentluv/images/littleheartplus.png)

Looked like there were issues with the comments last week, and I didn’t make it back. Sorry you felt like you owed us (me) an explanation on why your list is always so long. But I did appreciate it just the same.![My Profile](https://www.readingreality.net/wp-content/plugins/commentluv/images/littleheartplus.png)
