It's Monday! What Are You Reading? - Aug. 31

J. Kaye's way of keeping us all on track with our reading goals each week is the It's Monday! What Are You Reading meme. Thanks. It works so well.

Last week I met my goal from the previous week:
  1. Chalice
    A young adult fantasy by Robin McKinley. Definitely a good story, and one I've seen a few recommendations for in the last year. My review won't be up here for a while though, as I read the book to guest post over at Royal Reviews at the end of next month.
  2. Curse of the Tahiera
    A fantasy novel that I was sent for review by the author, Wendy Gillissen. This was a bit of a surprise at just how much I ended up loving the book.
  3. Hunting Ground
    Patricia Brigg's latest novel in the Alpha And Omega sequence, the sequel to Cry Wolf. A good read.

This week's goals:
Nefertiti by Michelle Moran and Graceling by Kristin Cashore, both books I picked up last week at the library. Both books look really good, so I'm looking forward to them. I'd also like to get a book finished for either the Pre Printing Press Challenge , or the Arthurian Challenge. Ideally it would be a book that fills both. Perhaps Sir Gawain and the Green Knight?

Thanks, April. She's one of my favorite authors, that's for sure. I've got to read more of her books though.

I keep seeing Alpha And Omega series...I have got to get it!

So far there's just the two books Cry Wolf and Hunting Ground(and the short story in On the Prowl).

These are set in the world of the Mercy Thompson series, so familiarity with that helps a lot.
