I started the second book in the shifters series, Rogue by Rachel Vincent. I'm only maybe 100 pages in but so far, it's really good.
Goodreads Summary
Cats don't always land on their feet
I know that better than most. Since rejoining the Pride, I've made big decisions and even bigger mistakes: the kind paid for with innocent lives. As the first and only female enforcer, I have plenty to prove to my father, the Pride and myself. And with murdered toms turning up in our territory, I'm working harder than ever, though I always find the energy for a little after-hours recreation with Marc, my partner both on and off duty.
But not all my mistakes are behind me. We're beginning to suspect that the dead are connected to a rash of missing human women and that they can all be laid at my feet—two or four, take your pick. And one horrible indiscretion may yet cost me more than I can bear.
I was listening to Pride and Prejudice by Jane Austen the Audio CD but it started to skip so much, I decided to put it away and why not read it :). I want to say this my 1,000,000th or so time reading it, lol.Goodreads Summary
'It is a truth universally acknowledged, that a single man in possession of a good fortune must be in want of a wife.' Thus memorably begins Jane Austen's Pride and Prejudice, one of the world's most popular novels. Pride and Prejudice—Austen's own 'darling child'—tells the story of fiercely independent Elizabeth Bennet, one of five sisters who must marry rich, as she confounds the arrogant, wealthy Mr. Darcy. What ensues is one of the most delightful and engrossingly readable courtships known to literature, written by a precocious Austen when she was just twenty-one years old.
Humorous and profound, and filled with highly entertaining dialogue, this witty comedy of manners dips and turns through drawing-rooms and plots to reach an immensely satisfying finale. In the words of Eudora Welty, Pride and Prejudice is as 'irresistible and as nearly flawless as any fiction could be.'
I've heard so many good things about Rachel Vincent and I think I'm the only one out there who hasn't read anything by her yet. Can't wait to hear what you think!
ReplyDeleteHave a fabulous reading week and if you have a minute check out my Reading Week at There’s A Book.
That's a shame your audio was skipping but you gave me a great idea and I think I might just have to get Pride and Prejudice on audio too. Thanks. Have a great week.
ReplyDeleteRogue does look good. I have yet to read Pride and Prejudice.... I know right? I should make that a a goal.

ReplyDeleteI have wanted to read the Shifters series. Although, unfortunately this is another one that seems to have gotten set aside with the other many books I have. :) Hope you are enjoying the book. Have a great week!
