It's Monday! What Are You Reading? - November 2

It's Monday! What Are You Reading? is hosted each week by J. Kaye.

This past week I met my goals in reading, completing the following books:

The Fiery Cross by Diana Gabaldon
It was almost as though I was reading this book for the first time, I had forgotten so much of the plot. Liked it a lot.

Lady of the Forest by Jennifer Roberson
A romance novel based on the tales of Robin Hood. A good read. I need to get the review written up and posted.

I'm not reading any books at the moment, having just finished Lady of the Forest yesterday.

For the upcoming week I intend to read Lady of Sherwood, the sequel to Lady of the Forest.

I know I'm not being overly ambitious, but its the month of NaNoWriMo.

I would guess that the book was pretty good if you are going to read the sequel next!
Have a good week : )

Oh! I am going to look up Lady of the Forest by Jennifer Roberson. That sounds really good!

I really want to reread the Gabaldon books because I know I have forgotten so much of them -- there is just so much to even try and remember! And I love Roberson's books -- she has such a wonderful way of writing!

Hello from Russia!
Can I quote a post "No teme" in your blog with the link to you?

Mary, it was pretty good. Not absolutely great, but definitely good.

J. Kaye, if you like reworkings and retellings of legends, you should. She did a good job.

Marie, there really is too much to remember in the Gabaldon books (she probably makes a fortune off people buying the books again to re-read them when the next book comes out). I do like Roberson's books, at least the ones I've read so far.

I do! I have both Lady of the Forest and the sequel listed on my Amazon wish list!
