Read-a-Thon Roundup
The books finished during my reading:
- Dead Reckoning – William Dresden. I picked this up to support a new author. It’s a horror novella, so be warned. It has an intriguing premise. I am going to keep an eye out for another book in the same universe.
- Bad Paper: Chasing Debt from Wall Street to the Underworld – Jack Halpern. Fascinating look into the debt industry. A little scary and only slightly outdated. It wraps up in 2015.
- Helen & Troy’s Epic Road Quest – A. Lee Martinez. Totally worth the romp. Sublimely ridiculous and still heartwarming with just enough tension. A great balancing act.
- The Master of Dreams – Mike Resnick. First book in a trilogy. I really wish the rest were already available.
Books started and not completed
- Billions and Billions – Carl Sagan
- The Assassin Who Gave Up His Gun – EV Cunningham
- Blue Plate Special – Kate Christensen
- Lies Sleeping- Ben Aaronovitch

Sunday Night Music: Midnight in Montgomery
Have a flashback to my high school years. I’ve always loved this song.
Starting a read-a-Thon this weekend
So, I have a plan to spend the majority of this weekend just reading. Excepting the D&D hours and religious obligations. So, let’s see what gets read this weekend.
I will be posting books on Goodreads as I finish them and I will do a tie-up post here. Maybe there’s something on my list which you will be interested in too.
