Sunday Sendup 30

So here's my week...

Finished:
Fables Deluxe volume 4 - in the words of Edward Elric "You can't use the truth to destroy reality!" Except the Adversary totally can. And does. Its fun.

What Kills Me by Wynne Channing - this was okay, though it felt rushed at times as the plot leapt from Point A to Point B to Point C.

The Mayfair Moon by J.A. Redmerski - I can see why this gets likened to Twilight, though I liked this better.

Take it Like a Vamp by Candace Havens - I enjoyed this quite a bit!  Now bring on Linc's story!

The Exceptions by David Cristofano - did not let me down. Not one little bit.

Started Reading:

The House of Shadows by Rachel Neimeier - Its a little bit oddly written, but I'm enjoying this.

Review: 
The Exceptions by David Crisofano - hell to the yeah, I loved The Girl She Used to Be so this companion novel is my new love.

Waltz with a Stranger by Pamela Sherwood (netgalley) - never could say no to a waltz

How to Tame a Willful Wife by Christy English (netgalley) - I love Taming of the Shrew, so this should be fun at least.

Crown Thief by David Tallerman (netgalley) - Thief. Fantasy. There.
