Two books in the series completed, two more to go!

On another note - watched #ReadyPlayerOne in cinema yesterday and it Rox my sox off!! Loved the book and loved the movie too! Character was very well played out.
THIS IS SO GOOD!!! Man that book had me so tightly in its grip that I had totally not realized that I had to get off the train if not a man had dragged me out of it, because Kyoto is the last stop and so everyone has to get out, but I was glued to the pages 🙈 Holy smokes, that was a first for me!
Evening ice cream and a book. Perfection.
Back to the "medieval" Japanese type world.. the last book felt a bit like generic European medieval fantasy so fingers crossed this ones better.
Almost done. So close to the end...
Breakfast break reading.
Getting some reading in while helping with trivia.
Also, new Fire tablet! Treated myself because the 8gb was NOT ENOUGH ROOM.
Congrats to @Well-ReadNeck @lindsayreads @Tcip who have each won the Tale of Shikanoko series from Farrar, Straus, and Giroux!! (Corgi not included 😊) We'll be in touch soon!

Loving this series so far; these books have some of the best cover art I've ever seen. #thetaleofshikanoko #adultfiction
I finally started this once the third in the series came out with the intention to just get it off my tbr pile and move to on to other stuff. Around halfway something clicked. Straight on to the third one now.
Seriously, this series is so fantastic! I picked up the 3rd book before I was halfway done with the 2nd. 😍A good decision because the ending had me begging for more. ✨🐲
This has been the book I've been reading at the gym for awhile now. Loving this series. Still going to wait to review them as a whole, but I def recommend them so far! 🍁👸🏻🐲👦🏻
Look at what came in the mail finally 😍 couldn't wait until I got home to open it up and now it is making these spreadsheets even less desirable #accountingproblems

Sometimes you can't go to sleep because the next book in a series whispers to you from across the room. Tonight is one of those nights.
These were some of the books purchased w/the APPL settlement funds last week: 'The Curse of the Tenth Grave' (new release); The Paper Magician trilogy (new-to-me); 'The Cairo Affair' (backlist; litsy rec) and 'Autumn Princess, Dragon Child' (2016 title/most likely the next off the stax) #TBRTuesday
The first one in this series was good enough, I'm down to try this one. I'm not entirely sure they're my 'thing' yet.
Am loving this series. Medieval Japan, a little magic, politics, family, love, battles. Loyalties tested, alliances made. I'm trying not to speed through the books, but I want to know what happens.
I was hoping this would be as good as the first book in the series. I was not disappointed. It was just as interesting and action packed as the first. But now I have to wait until October to read the last two books 😭
I cannot wait to dive into this one and see what happens! I enjoyed book 1 so much and @callunakeep has told me book 2 is just as good!
A sequel truly worthy of the first! If I hadn't had to work & babysit I would have easily read this in one sitting! I could hardly put it down it was so enthralling! And now I have to wait til August for book 3! Books 3 & 4 already on preorder! If you haven't already, add this series to your TBR!
It has arrived!!! So excited to come home to this in the mail today!!
The second of four books in Hearn's new medieval Japanese fantasy series. Love, magic, spiritualism, battles, power, & honor. Get ready to be dazzled.
