1. I have been reading a wonderful new book and have been swept up in it like I always get when I LOVE the story. It's called A Discovery of Witches by Deborah Harkness. This book is right up my alley when it comes to my literature selections. Some of my favorite stories include Pride and Prejudice or anything really by Jane Austen, The Twilight Series by Stephenie Meyer, The Women of the Otherworld Series by Kelley Armstrong, Author P.C. Cast and several of her series of books, The Drake Chronicles by Alyxandra Harvey, and the Fallen Series by Lauren Kate. This book is written in a very intelligent way and you can tell the author really thought through all the characters thoughts, feelings, and connections with their world and other characters. Harkness is also an expert on wine and history, so the story is so believable to me because its so involved. Like so many of my favorite authors, she offers extras and things at her website. One of my favorite things is when the authors list out the music they listened to that inspired them while writing the story or characters, and she does this as well. I would recommend this to many of my friends to read. Can I wait for the next two books in the trilogy? Probably not!!!
