I should revive this thread.
I'm currently reading the sequel for this interspecies romance novel called the Wraith Kings. The second book is called Eidolon. So far, so good. It's a bit different and it's taking me a bit to get into because I read the first book about a year ago.
So, anyone reading anything interesting?

I'm glad this thread was revived because I really need a new book and am looking for some recommendations. I would actually really like a series, because the longer it keeps me occupied the better  |

If you want something gritty/fantasy like ASoIaF I highly recommend the First Law trilogy. There's 3 standalone books after that too. |

I was thinking about starting that or potentially The Kingkiller Chronicle, but there's only 2 books in that series so far. I LOVE First Law. Can't recommend it enough. The first book (The Blade Itself) is solid, but book's 2 & 3 are fantastic. My favorite book by Joe Abercrombie is actually one of the standalone novels though (Best Served Cold). |

Romeo and Juliet ain't no book... Because it's a play? LOL I've put two plays on my list. I count them as books. |

Don't be such a Besserwisser. |
