Paine, I LOVED The Rosie Project! I read all 3 books in the series.

I am reading a quirky novel, Eggshells. I saw it in the library, and I could swear I saw the author mentioned somewhere, but I can't recall where.

Just finished listening to The Long Way to a Small Angry Planet by Becky Chambers. The audio book is good, but the character voices should have been a bit more distinct from each other. I sometimes had a hard time figuring out which character was speaking, and I'd assume that would be even more difficult for someone who'd never read the story before.

Beth, I probably heard about The Rosie Project from you! The main character has an amusingly peculiar personality. I didn't know there were 2 more books in the series. I'll check them out.

Paine, LOL, I forget who I mention things to.

I am reading The Rosie Effect by Graeme Simsion. Beth, thank you for telling me it was part of a trilogy!

Paine, glad you liked the first book enough to go on to the second!

This weekend I started listening to Elatsoe by Darcy Little Badger on audio and am enjoying it a lot. It's a YA murder mystery about a Lipan Apache teen girl who can to speak to the dead.

Finally finished Until You by Jeannie Moon, a hockey romance that I started months ago but I've had trouble concentrating on ebooks so it took me a while. There is so much going on in this story, possibly too much, but it was well written and I liked that the woman was older and successful in her own right.

Currently reading the Psy-Changeling series by Nalini Singh. Just started the 4th book of 19

I just finished a book that I enjoyed, Silent Sister. I hadn't read the author before - I think her name is Diane Chamberlin?
