This week I have five new books I added to the TBR pile. They’re all books I bought myself this time and they’re all ones I really can’t wait to read, although I probably won’t get to more than one of them this month (I’m still trying to figure out my November reading list other than By the Mountain Bound by Elizabeth Bear, which I’m reading now). Lips Touch: Three Times by Laini Taylor I received review copies of the […]

Elizabeth Bear is one of my favorite […]

The ending isn’t quite a cliffhanger but I wouldn’t call it a complete ending, either, since it is very clear that there is a lot more of the story left to be told.
