I can safely say that I made up for the reading drought of prior months. So many interesting books! OMG!

Grace Draven’s Wraith Kings series continues to rock. Vanessa North’s upcoming f/f romance Roller Girl is lovely. Tiffany Reisz’s twisted The Bourbon Thief marks her as the 21st Century answer to V.C. Andrews. And, honestly, I would read a Tang Dynasty grocery list written by Jeannie Lin.
