Currently reading: "Kitchen Confidential" by Anthony Bourdain


I saw Anthony Bourdain back in November; before my friend had a spare ticket, I had no idea who he was. The show was great, though, truly hilarious; I'm excited to start this book.

Next on the shelf: same as previous post!

Currently reading: "Pyramids" by Terry Pratchett


I've been trying to read this installment of the Discworld series for a couple of weeks now. I've fallen asleep on it twice, and just not felt like reading it other times. I don't know why; it's hilarious, as they all are. I guess I've just been in the mood for something different. But I've had it from Booksfree for more than a month, so I'm going to read it, dammit!

Next on the shelf:
Kitchen Confidential by Anthony Bourdain
Redemption Alley by Lilith Saint Crow
Royal Road To Fotheringhay by Jean Plaidy
Living With The Dead by Kelley Armstrong
Sunshine by Robin McKinley

Upcoming books I'm excited for.


Flirt, an Anita Blake short novel (Laurell K Hamilton). February.

Bullet, the next full-length Anita! June.

Black Magic Sanction by Kim Harrison, the next of the Hollows books. February.

Waking the Witch by Kelley Armstrong, the latest in the Otherworld series (although I haven't finished all the published ones, I know I will have when it comes out). October.

The Red Queen and The White Princess by Philippa Gregory. Not sure when either of those will be released.

Grave Secret by Charlaine Harris--already out in hardback, but waiting for paperback as I don't like that series quite enough to re-read, so I don't want to spend the money on the hardback.

The Captive Queen by Alison Weir. April.

Hmm ... how the hell am I going to pay for all these? And these are just my favorite authors, who I'm willing to spend money on because I know I'll re-read the books (Harris' aside). Actually, those are just the ones who popped into my tired three-a.m. brain.

Let me be shameless for a moment ... if anybody wants to help me earn points to get free gift cards for these books, and find out how to get things for yourself as well, see my post here.

I think there's more but I forget.
