But now I'm reading Delicious in Dungeon by Ryoko Kui! I've been wanting to read this manga ever since I saw its premise somewhere on the 'net. Was quite excited to learn my library had it, but the first five or so volumes were out for WEEKS. Every time I checked for about two months, always gone, so when I went for my usual library run today and found them on the shelf, I swept the first six volumes into my arms and ran off with them. I'm... not exactly proud to be that person, but I didn't want to wait another month plus to get the middle volumes if they were checked out before I went back again.

Current book is Demon in my View by Amelia Atwater-Rhodes. Pretty sure I read this one ages ago, but I love this author, so I'm willing to read it again. (It won't be a long read, anyway, it's about novella length, it'll go quick.)

Shattered Mirror, also by Amelia Atwater-Rhodes, is my current read. It'll probably be fairly quick, too. It's technically the sequel to Demon in my View, but other than a few side characters making a second appearance, it's a whole new cast, and you don't really need to have read the prior book to understand this one, all doing so really gives you is a little background on a couple of things that are mentioned briefly.

Followed that up with Falcondance by Amelia Atwater-Rhodes, which was fantastic, but I REALLY wish I could find the book that takes place between it and Hawksong. I mean, it's not strictly necessary to read the series in order, Falcondance stands on its own well enough, but I felt like I was missing a lot by not knowing how the people went from their original lands to the new one.

And now I'm reading Shadow and Bone by Leigh Bardugo. I've read so many good things about the Grisha trilogy, so I'm pretty excited to have finally snagged the first book.

Beneath the Sugar Sky by Seanan McGuire is my next read. I've been waiting over a month for this book, it's the only Wayward Children novel I have left to read.

EDIT (8/17): I LOVED Beneath the Sugar Sky. Really wish I'd been able to read it before some of the other Wayward Children books, would have made a couple of the other books make more sense. It's not really necessary to read them in any certain order, I'd have just preferred to have read this one before I read Cora's book.

Next up is Siege and Storm by Leigh Bardugo. Second book in the Grisha trilogy! I was honestly terrified this book wouldn't be in and I'd have to wait a month or more for it to return, as has been my luck with other books. But it was in, as was the last book in the trilogy, and I grabbed both, so now I don't have to worry about it!

EDIT (8/21): Siege and Storm was a RIVETING read. I love seeing all the characters and their relationships evolve as all the event unfold. It makes them seem so REAL.

Now for the last book of the Grisha trilogy; Ruin and Rising by Leigh Bardugo. (I feel kinda silly writing her name every time for each book of the series, but since I know series where there are different authors for some of the books, I also feel like it's necessary...)

Current book is Star Wars: Labyrinth of Evil by James Luceno. I snagged it because it didn't seem to be part of larger series, and it involves Darth Sidious. Had to have my beau give me a crash course in the first two prequel movies, though, since it's set right before Episode III. I still hate the first six Star Wars films, just absolutely cannot sit through any of them (and believe me, I've tried), but I'm devoted enough to learning the lore to keep picking up the old "non-canon" novels. (If you read "non-canon" in a sarcastic tone and with an eye roll, you caught my tone exactly! Try as they might, Disney can't just make all this lore go away.)
