An Introvert's World of Books discussion

I'm listening to No One Goes Alone by Erik Larson.

There's a creepiness but not quite about the story. A small group of various professionals are trying to decide if a missing family is due to paranormal or human or natural causes.

Our furnace broke down and there hasn't been any heat. We've had a fire going for 2 days and I am taking full advantage of listening to this particular ghost story huddle around the fireplace. I have to fight over the perfect spot with my daughter and the dog... that's why it's 2 in the morning and I'm still up.

(I apologize for any spelling or sentence errors. Sometimes my brain gets a little scrambled. I think I caught them all.)

The Girl in the Eagle’s Talons (just continuing the saga of Lisbeth Salander).

How do you like the series? I've been back and forth with starting it. The only reason why is because I heard the first book had a difficult scene to read at the beginning, so I've been afraid.

I started reading Just the Nicest Couple. I honestly can't remember why I borrowed it from the library. I think it's for one of my reading challenges... I'll figure it out later.

I'm not sure I'm a fan. A husband goes missing, he may have been murdered. I'm almost half in and I'm only finishing it to find out the whodunit but I'm not hooked.

*update* I did not finish it. It has become a DNF (did not finish) or as I refer to them, a tombstone book.

I am almost finished listening to The Southern Book Club's Guide to Slaying Vampires by Grady Hendrix. At first I thought it was hysterical and the characters were just perfect, but with 3 hours left- shit got real. It's not so funny now. I don't know what I think anymore.

I had my books planned out of what I wanted to read this month. I was so excited and then, like always, I come across a book that was not even on my radar. The Priory of the Orange Tree by Samantha Shannon has grabbed me. I am completely wrapped up in this world... the politics, the spies, the myths and legends, and oh man, dragons!!! What girl does not want a book with dragons? It's a hefty book, don't fall asleep with it over your face.
