Reserved for Series I want to start.

Rules:
1) I have to complete a full series first
2) The series I want to start needs to be completed, or the last book has an expected publishing date. (This means GR shows a bookcover, release date and author confirms. I am NOT playing with these authors anymore!)

Completed Series/Trilogy:

Kinsey Milhone by Sue Grafton Completed

Overall 3-5 to 4 Stars. This is a pretty consistent mystery series with a female protagonist. The series goes from letter A to Letter Y; as the author passed from Cancer. We don't really get thrills until letter M, and as stated before; the series is incomplete. I still do recommend it, if you like simple mysteries.

The First Law by Joe Abercrombie Completed.

Overall, 5 Stars. This trilogy is consistently good. Great writing, action sequences, plot and pacing. This. Is. Grimdark. Fantasy.

There are more books set in this world; and I believe A Little Hatred, is the first book to read next.

Highly Recommended.

Books completed; progress on series:

The List - #1 in the series. Only 2 Stars. I couldn't suspend my disbelief any longer. Ugh.

Brief Cases - #15.5 - 4 Stars. #13.5 was also completed. Books of short stories in Dresden Files.
