Re: What Are You Reading? (May 2017)
Binging on Taylor Anderson's Destroyermen series and Robert Crais's Elvis Cole/Joe Pike books.
Anderson's writing style drives me crazy at times...he relies more upon ellipses than anyone I've ever seen (besides myself -wink-). And he tends to recap in each book far too much, and can go long stretches with very little plot progression. Nonetheless, I find the characters, though somewhat cliched, strangely addictive and compelling. It's one of those series that you keep thinking while reading, "This would make a great HBO series." In fairness, it seems that it's one of those originally planned as a trilogy that the author kept going after the books caught on with the public. I'm on Book 4 (of twelve so far), and hopefully it's just transitioning from the original tightly-plotted books to an expanding alternate reality fantasy universe. Think GRRM with GoT Bks. 4 & 5. https://images-na.ssl-images-amazon....SR200,320_.jpg |

Finished:
The Late Bloomer: A Memoir of my Body by Ken Baker https://images-na.ssl-images-amazon....1JA-tUiWOL.jpg I loved this. One of the best non-fiction books that I have read in quite some time. I highly recommend it. Started: The Last Apprentice: Rise of the Huntress by Joseph Delaney https://images-na.ssl-images-amazon....FL._SY346_.jpg |
