It’s that time! Although I got birthday books, I also have been listening to a lot of audio, so not as many new reads as I’d expect.<\/p>\n
Some of my favorite books of the month were the next two entries in Marie Brennan’s Memoirs of Lady Trent series: Voyage of the Basilisk<\/em> (Rating: 8.5\/10) and In the Labyrinth of Drakes<\/em> (Rating: 8.5\/10). This series is fantastic. You really should check it out, and then give it to any aspiring natural historians or research scientists in your life.<\/p>\n Fantasy, Supernatural<\/strong><\/p>\n Mercy Thompson Mystery, Historical <\/strong><\/p>\n The Alienist<\/em><\/a> (1994) Caleb Carr<\/a> (Rating: 8.5\/10) Fantasy, Historical<\/strong><\/p>\n Memoirs of Lady Trent Audio Books<\/strong><\/p>\n Mercy Thompson The Stats! The Stats!<\/p>\n eBook: 7 As I said, a lot of audio books this month, all of which were re-reads. And for bedtime reading I started re-reading the Brother Cadfael series. It’s good and I can read it at any time, but it shouldn’t keep me awake reading when I need to sleep. And note about the multiple formats–those are books I own in multiple formats. I borrowed most of the audio books from the library, because I don’t like the narration enough to own them.<\/p>\n Fantasy: 10 Mostly fantasy this month. <\/p>\n Male: 1 And male authors were all but missing this month. More than twice the number of female authors as male so far this year.<\/p>\n And those are the books of July!<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" It’s that time!
