In My Stack

Just so anyone who is expecting a review knows, these are the books I’m currently reading:

- An Embarrassment of Riches by Gerald Hansen - I’m almost done with this one.  Gerald asked me to review it and he was also nice enough to send me a copy of the book.  So far I would say I quite like it.  It’s not the kind of book I normally read as it’s not Sci Fi/Fantasy or Mystery, but my love for Irish culture and my childhood Gaelic classes came in handy (don’t ask me why I took Irish Gaelic at school).

- Daughter of the Drow by Elaine Cunningham - I stole this from my boyfriend during our move.  I love it so far and he accuses me of loving it only because the society is run by women.  Not so!  I swear!  That’s not the only reason I love it (lol).

- The Merlot Murders by Ellen Crosby - I bought this as an audio book, so I can listen to it in the car.  So far I love Ellen Crosby’s amazing imagery.  It makes me want to go out to Napa (California wine country) and sample wine all day.

- 2008 Writer’s Market Deluxe Edition - I think it’s pretty obvious why I bought this one.

- Problogger by Darren Rowse and Chris Garrett - This is an excellent reference guide.  I follow the Problogger blog and the book gives a very complete insight along with great tools.

- Needful Things by Stephen King - I lost this in the move.  I’m sure it’s somewhere, but I’m in the middle of it.  Maybe I lost it intentionally because I’m not that enamored with it.  It’s extremely, painfully slow.

In Line:

- I’m Not Scared by Niccolo Ammaniti - A friend of mine said this book was weird so I would like it.  I’m not sure what that’s supposed to mean – but I intend to find out.

- Dexter in the Dark by Jeff Lindsay - This is my next audio adventure!  Yay!
