Jim Butcher's "Storm Front", the first of his Harry Dresden novels.

I bought a copy last year for my niece and decided I'd belatedly see for myself.

That is a pretty good series imo. Well worth the time investment. They are also really quick reads.

Unlike the Anita Blake series which got worse as the series progressed the Harry Dresden series got better.

So I finished Last Exit to Brooklyn today. Overall I enjoyed it and found only a few sections difficult to get through (The Queen Is Dead segment was the most challenging I found.) Not as good as Requiem for a dream which i remember reading about 6 or 7 years ago when I was about 15 but overall an interesting work.

I found it the entire book to be riveting, for what it's worth.

I just finished this book:

It turned out to be quite the page turner. It hooked me like Flander's Panel did... I'm starting to wonder if i have a weakness for Spanish suspense writers.
