Where did the Tuesday go? Well, as the power vested in me as a mod of this community, I am declaring today a Tuesday! So, without further ado:
Finished The Crystal Shard by R. A. Salvatore. First book of The Icewind Dale Trilogy, and The Legend of Drizzt / Forgotten Realms series (publication order).
Loved the book. A quick and very enjoyable read. If rest of the trilogy is similar, going to get the whole series.
Read Small Favor by Jim Butcher, 10th book in the Dresden Files series. Liked in much better than the previous book White Night. Full of action, without much dull moments. Stakes keep getting higher and higher, but we are starting to see some bigger picture.
Currently reading Side Jobs by Jim Butcher. It’s short stories in Dresden Files universe. I started it after White Night, but only reading stories that are before the book I have read, so this will not be completed for quite a while.

What about all of you? What have you been reading or listening to lately?
There’s a Midyear Bingo check-in post, do take a look. Even if you haven’t started this year’s Book Bingo, you can still join, as there are still 6 months remaining!
For details, you can checkout the initial Book Bingo, and it’s Recommendation Post . Links are also present in our community sidebar.
Yeah, personally, I didn’t like the last battle too much. It was very umm… meta, I guess.
I have the same collection, don’t know if I am Legend was ever released stand alone. Also, I had seen the movie before reading the book, so wasn’t expecting the direction it took.
I actually came across a spoiler for the I Am Legend book years ago, so it wasn’t a total surprise. Though either the spoiler had it partly wrong or my memory of it wasn’t fully accurate so there were still some surprises. Did you read through the short stories as well?
Yes, I read the whole book, but for the life of me I can’t remember anything about any of of the other stories. Only thing I remember is that I was surprised that I am Legend wasn’t a novel but a short story / novella.
