Buying books haven't really been a big thing this month... but winning them has.
Yep, I've been winning books left and right! This is always fun, don't you think?
Sure it is.
Well, I won a copy of 'The Watcher' by Jo Robertson through Audible and have been listening to that - I'm currently up to chapter 22. It's fantastic! I'm totally hooked!
Then, out of the blue, I won a copy of 'The Black Box' by Michael Connelly. Now, I didn't know I had won a copy of this - just knew I had won one of his books - and so I found a second-hand over-sized copy of it at my craft group... and what should show up in my PO Box? Yep, the same book. So, I gave the bigger copy to my Dad and kept the brand new book for myself.
Then, I scored 'Tomorrow, When the War Began' at my craft group for around $1.00. It's the first book in the 'Tommorrow' series - something I didn't know - and so I might see how this one turns out. If I don't like it, off to the charities it goes.
In writing news, I have finally finished 'Fry Nelson: Bounty Hunter - Book 3'. I wrote the ending of it at around 12:09am on a Tuesday morning mid-October... and damn it feels good to have finished it! Now, I have to get it all looked at, edited and worked on to get published. There's another three years of my life to go.
'Angel Love' is going well. It's becoming more complex as each chapter passes by. The bad guys are bad-ass... the good guys have dug themselves into a hole they have no idea how to dig themselves out of and everyone else in between are - as always - caught right there in the middle of the whole thing: good, evil and otherwise.
So, what have you been up to lately with book-buying? I have something to write for the end of the year, and into Christmas, and there's always something new for next year to read - as you all know about my huge collection of books is ever-growing. Until my next post, happy reading!
