The Books of December

And it’s the end of December, so time for the books I read this past month!

Best books of the month were Pawn of Prophecy by David Eddings, which is an old favorite I have read many, many times. Fate’s Edge by Ilona Andrews was another re-read of a book I loved.

And here’s what I read:

Epic Fantasy

The Belgariad
Pawn of Prophecy (1982) David Eddings (10/10)
Queen of Sorcery (1982) David Eddings (8/10)
Magician’s Gambit (1983) David Eddings (9/10)

Supernatural Fantasy

Generation V
Tainted Blood (2014) M.L. Brennan (7.5/10)

Supernatural Romance

Burn for Me (2014) Ilona Andrews (7/10)

The Edge
On the Edge (2009) Ilona Andrews (8/10)
Bayou Moon (2010) Ilona Andrews (7.5/10)
Fate’s Edge (2011) Ilona Andrews (9/10)

Historical Romance

Rules of Scoundrels
A Rogue by Any Other Name (2012) Sarah MacLean (7/10)
One Good Earl Deserves a Lover (2013) Sarah MacLean (8/10)
No Good Duke Goes Unpunished (2013) Sarah MacLean (6/10)
Never Judge a Lady by Her Cover (2014) Sarah MacLean (7/10)

Format-wise, I once again bought books I already owned in paperback, so I could re-read them.

Paperback – 3
eBook – 9
Multiple Formats – 3
Re-read – 6

Very little variety in genre this month.

Fantasy – 8
Romance – 8

And male authors made a slight comeback this month, but not enough to pull out of their slump.

Male – 3
Female – 3
Initials – 1
Joint – 4
