Never stop reading. (Content originally posted at Blogger.)
Daughter of Smoke and Bone, by Laini Taylor, has been sitting on my bedside table for weeks now. I've been carrying it with me when I traveled, as back up for when my iPad ran out of juice. Did you know books can guilt trip you if you ignore them long enough? Library books are especially good at guilt because there's a chance someone else is waiting to read the book after you. I didn't actually start reading it until midnight last night. Daughter of Smoke and Bone is another one of the many young adult/new adult books that I've been hearing about so much that I put it on my mental "read this just to find out what the fuss was about" shelf. Unlike many of the other books that have been on this shelf (*cough* Twilight *cough*), this one did not disappoint. In fact, as soon as I finished the book, I hopped on to Amazon to buy the full trilogy for my kindle. So, now I know what I'm going to do with my weekend. How about you?
