It's Monday! What Are You Reading? - November 16

It's Monday! What Are You Reading is a weekly event hosted by J.Kaye of J. Kaye's Book Blog, where we list off the books we've read each week, what we're reading now, and what we want to read for the week.

I see it as incentive to get the reviews up, which I'm failing badly at right now.

Books I finished this past week are:

The Eagle's Daughter by Judith Tarr. Set in 10th century Germania/Gaul, it was a good read. Read for the Clear off Your Shelves Challenge.

The Shadow Hawk by Andre Norton. A departure from her usual science fiction/fantasy novel.

I'm really behind on reviewing! Got to get the reviews for these up.

What I'm reading now:

The Birth of Venus by Sara Dunant. I've just started the book really, and I'm not too sure what to make of it.

Guilty Pleasures by Laurell K. Hamilton. It's the graphic novel, and again, I'm not sure what I'm thinking about it yet. Both of these are for the Clearing Off Your Shelf Challenge.

Life After 187 by Wade J. Halverson. Not sure what to classify this book as, but I'm really enjoying it, even though it's not my usual reading fare.

Planning to read:

The second volume of the Guilty Pleasures graphic novel. Also for the Clear Off Your Shelves Challenge.

I read Guilty Pleasures the book, and I didn't know there was a graphic novel! Let me know what you thing about it. :)

And the same to you, Nina

Eli, so far I think the art is neat, and well done, but I'm not an expert in graphic novels.

I've also read the original book, though it's been a while, and I kind of think the graphic novel version might be a bit more explicit.
