Leslie gave up listening to The Cruel Prince by Holly Black, and is currently alternating between Siege & Storm by Leigh Bardugo and Old Man’s War by John Scalzi (if you want to try John Scalzi I recommend Fuzzy Nation or The Android’s Dream or Agent to the Stars – really you can’t go wrong with John Scalzi). She finished reading Roar/The Stormheart series and pre-ordered the second book.  She also read The Last Namsari (cool dragon culture, otherwise meh) and is currently reading Carter & Lovecraft.

Laura is reading the R. J Blain adult paranormal fantasy series and listening to A Wrinkle in Time.

About Leslie

Leslie is obsessed with knitting, and when possible, perfection in her knitting. All stripey socks must match exactly and all lace must be blocked severely. She has major love for all of her viewers/readers and hopes to keep blogging and podcasting for years to come.
