The Geek Girls Book Club discussion

http://geekgirlsbookclub.blogspot.com...

I don't know yet what I'll be reading over the summer, but I'll share a list of books I've loved!
First up recommendations based on specific past picks the club has done:

If you liked the female lead and mythological feel of Mists of Avalon, try Daughter of the Forest by Juliet Marillier

If you liked the long storyline, many veiwpoints and intrigue of Game of Thrones, but want something that's just a little tighter and contained, or simply something that is safely completed, try Spirit Gate(Crossroads trilogy) by Kate Elliott

Enjoyed Death by Black Hole and looking for more non-fiction that's non-scientist friendly? Periodic Tales: The Curious Lives of the Elements.

Looking for more light silly humor after Redshirts? Try Year Zero by Rob Reid.

If part of what you like about The Hobbit is that it's enjoyable for grownups, while being very accessible for the young-uns, try Tailchaser's Song by Tad Willams. Also great if you love cats. :)

Other general recommendations:

Expendable by James Alan Gardner- an easy, fun space adventure.
Damocles by S.G. Redling - a first contact novel with a little bit of a Stargate Universe feel.
The Golden City by J. Kathleen Cheney Sirens/Selkies ect. in a Portugal type setting.
The Wizard Hunters by Martha Wells
Rivers of London by Ben Aaronovitch
The Drowning City by Amanda Downum
Brother to Dragons, Companion to Owls by Jane Lindskold

Hopefully a few of these will hit the spot for somebody else out there! (But I love making lists, so it's already been fun regardless) :D

Thanks for the superb list! I am definitely going to check these books out. And since you love making lists, I suck at making lists, I would love to see more of your lists, if you want to share. Keep up the good work!
