The Books of June
And here’s last month’s reading wrap-up:
Fantasy
Tempest Reborn (2013) Nicole Peeler
Kitty Rocks the House (2013) Carrie Vaughn
Anansi Boys (2005) Neil Gaiman
Thieves’ World Book 12, Stealers’ Sky (1989) edited by Robert Asprin and Lynn Abbey
YA Fantasy
The Raven Boys (2012) Maggie Stiefvater
The Privilege of the Sword (2006) Ellen Kushner
Historical Romance
A Proper Companion (2011) Candice Hern
A Change of Heart (2011) Candice Hern
An Affair of Honor (2011) Candice Hern
Desperate Measures (2011) Candice Hern
I read ten books, bringing my total for the year so far up to 94. That’s way above my normal average; we’ll see if this trend continues.
Typically, I read more fantasy than anything else.
Fantasy: 6
Romance: 4
YA: 2
Anthology: 1
Yes, that total is more than ten, because books belong to multiple categories.
As far as format goes, eBooks are continuing to outpace paper books of all sorts. And two of the paperbacks were new-releases I had on pre-order.
Paperback: 3
eBook: 7
Multiple Formats: 2
Re-read: 3
But I’d like to point out that I have two of those books in multiple formats. Actually, I have The Privilege of the Sword in three different formats: paperback, eBook, and audio book.
