We’re having a SNOW DAY here in Atlanta on Friday as I write this. An actual, honest to goodness snow day. So far there’s been 2 inches of wet stuff, enough to coat everything. It will probably ice over and then melt, but right now we’re living in a winter wonderland. All the better to stay in, curl up with a warm cat and a cup of hot cocoa, and READ!
The two prettiest covers this week are Last Dance Before Dawn and The Library at Hellebore, with a honorable – or, considering the series, dishonorable – mention for Red Seas Under Red Skies. After all, that’s book 2 in the Gentleman Bastards series, so calling anything about it ‘honorable’ is most likely a stretch.
Although that is one of the two books I’m most curious about this week. I picked up Red Seas because the series it’s part of, which begins with the oft recommended The Lies of Locke Lamora, is mentioned as a readalike for The Silverblood Promise, which I finally started in audio and am absolutely loving so far. The other book I’m curious about is The Irresistible Urge to Fall for Your Enemy, the first book in the Dearly Beloathed duology. I fully admit that I grabbed that one for the SERIES title, and I’m really curious to see how it goes.
I’d have said that the book I’m most looking forward to was The Hero She Loves, but I finished that yesterday and it was terrific and I need to get the review written . The other book I’m really looking forward to I believe might be ITS series ender, and that’s Last Dance Before Dawn.
I should have plenty of time to make a dent in SOMETHING this weekend! What about you? What’s in your stack?

Wow I bet it’s unusual for Atlanta to get snow. We have not had any this year so far and I’m hoping it stays that way. Have a great week!
A great list. I haven’t seen any snow. Literally everywhere else in the UK has had it 😂 there has been some frost…
I have read Holmes and Moriarty which was good.
Have a good snow day and a great week!
I live in Ohio and we got about 4 inches of snow just overnight. That just added to the snow we already had. I love it though! Looks like you have some great books to read. Have a great weekend!
Nice book haul. I hope you enjoy your books.
The weather definitely calls for staying indoors and reading. The Irresistible Urge to Fall for Your Enemy looks like something I’d put on my bookshelf.
Happy reading!
Perfect reading weather! Have a great week. 🙂
I am glad you were able to experience some snow! We received a little too but that is more common for us in Pennsylvania. Have a wonderful week!
