Time for the next challenge.
What’s on your reading list for 2014?
That is always a big question because I read quite a lot of books. Last yeas was one of my slow years I only got to about 60 books for the year read. I keep track at Goodreads with their yearly challenge. Best year so far was almost 300 books for the year in 2012. With so many book coming out that I want to read this year I will just focus on a few here.
This first series I got the tip on from the pod cast Geek Chic. This is a great pod cast go check them out! http://geekchic.prismatictsunami.com/
I just read the first book in this series and LOVED IT! I will be reading the rest this week.
The Magnificent Devices
novels are set in an alternate Victorian age where the combustion engine
has been a flop and steam-powered devices are capable of sending the
adventurous to another city, another continent … or even another world.
Society is divided into Wits (those who make their way using their
intellect) and the Bloods (those who have inherited what they have).
After a year of hard
labor in the Salt Mines of Endovier, eighteen-year-old assassin Celaena
Sardothien has won the king's contest to become the new royal assassin.
Yet Celaena is far from loyal to the crown – a secret she hides from
even her most intimate confidantes.
Keeping up the deadly charade—while pretending to do the king's bidding—will test her in frightening new ways, especially when she's given a task that could jeopardize everything she's come to care for. And there are far more dangerous forces gathering on the horizon -- forces that threaten to destroy her entire world, and will surely force Celaena to make a choice.
Where do the assassin’s loyalties lie, and who is she most willing to fight for?
