I love Harry Dresden, so decided to give this series a try. I really enjoyed this one and this new world. I definitely will continue this series.
#bookhaul from our trip to the indie bookstore today. Two for me, one for my boyfriend, and one gift 📚
I love everything about this #LitsyLoveValentineSwap! Love all the goodies. The candles smell wonderful and the socks are perfect. Looking forward to reading the books and love that you started me on a new series journey.
Happy Valentines Day, Sarah. Thank you for everything!

My Friends Over You by New Found Glory
Best fictional friend groups/squads
They may be from an underrated series but you can‘t go wrong with the friendship between Tavi and Max.

1. Fantasy (both high fantasy and urban) and science fiction.
2. Mystery.
3. Romance, nonfiction.
4. Urban fantasy.
5. “The Devil in the White City”. Read this for a book club and liked it much more than I expected.
6. Tagged. I wouldn‘t say I loathed it, but I tried to read it twice and gave up both times, just couldn‘t get into it.
7. @JessClark78 @sudi 😊
Ugh, I‘m in love with this series!! It‘s been a couple years since I reread it and I‘m so excited to meet my favourites again.
Day off = a books in bed kinda morning
Since there are so many awesome people that like Gilmore Girls too, I thought I'd share a pic of my mug this morning. Just don't tell anyone that there's hot chocolate in it and not coffee 😔 #GilmoreGirls #MugShot

pickI made the mistake going into this with Harry Dresden in mind, not so much the character, but the atmosphere and the light-heartedness. That was my mistake. This book was incredible and I‘m looking forward to the rest of the series, however, some parts were tough to digest and those scenes showed the depth of Butcher‘s writing. If you like GRRM and Kohn Gwynn‘s, you‘ll love this one.
I got bored earlier this and organized my GoodReads shelves. I managed to clean off 2011 and now I‘m working on ‘09, ‘10, ‘12, and ‘13. I won‘t get them cleaned off this year, but I will by the end of January.
One of my favorite pages in my #bujo. I have all the books I‘ve added to Goodreads since 2008 typed up and printed by year I added the books and alphabetical order, as well as a couple of challenges. I love coloring the titles in as I complete them. Feels like I actually accomplished something this year. 😂😂
I love Butcher. Love him. I consider him my author!husband and Harry Dresden as my book!husband. I‘ve owned this series for years and just getting around to it and I don‘t know what to think about this one. It‘s completely different from his other two series and by that I mean, this book is completely fucked up.
Looking to get into an epic fantasy that has an actual ending! I've heard good things about The Codex Alera series, so I hope it does not disappoint. Starting Book 1 today!
I'm still slightly under the weather but at least I'm reading a lot. This one is a lot of fun.

so-soI really wanted to like it, since Jim Butcher's Dresden Files is one of my favourite series, but the Codex Alera couldn't captivate me. It was okay, but I probably won't read the other books in the series.
pickLove, love love these books!!!!! What a wild ride from beginning to the end!! Amazing world, Amazing battles, Amazing story! I simply couldn't get enough!! I recommend these to anybody who loves fantasy books.
pickVery different than what I've gotten used to with Dresden Files, but still has a pleasing quantity of snark, even in a more traditional fantasy setting.
The "what? WHAT?!" at the end made me giggle uncontrollably as we can all see what is coming, but the affected character can't, because teenager :)
pickI find that I do not like books that keep switching point of views, but Jim Butcher does this masterfully. I felt very invested in each of the main characters and could not wait to see what happened next. I cannot wait to start reading the second book and see where this series goes.
Quite enjoying this book so far. I'm about 200 pages in and find that I cannot put it down (except to post this blurb, apparently).
Starting the Codex Alera, a series by Jim Butcher that managed to escape my notice until now. If it's anything like the Dresden Files or Cinder Spires, I think I'm in for quite a ride.
We had such a great time at New York Comic Con this weekend! Thanks to everyone who stopped by our booth to say hi and check out some books. ? We've been sharing cosplay photos on the Ace Roc Books Twitter page, but we wanted to share our favorite here--Ash and a puppy Pika with Jim Butcher's Furies of Calderon! Butcher was dared to write a good story inspired by Pokémon, and his Codex Alexa series was the awesome result.
pickThe first installment in a four part epic. Interesting magic derived from nature spirits in a society on par with Romans. It gets crazy real from skirmishes to all our warfares it's just one thrill after another. If you like any other Jim butcher book you'll like this or vice versa.
