April in Books

I read 6 books in March. This is a significant decrease from the previous months. I wake up before 7am and go to bed earlier, perhaps because of the daylight savings time. Falling asleep earlier means less time reading and fewer books in the monthly report. It may also be related to my choice of books, these 6 above are not page-turners.

The best book this month was Fearless Fourteen by Janet Evanovich. Stephanie Plum is blue like Smurfiette there and solves crime. The other 5 were also fine. Nothing stands out as particularly good or bad. The two Sand Wars omnibuses (6 novels inside) were classic sci-fi with aliens and had some good moments but can’t compete with a bounty hunter Smurfiette.

  1. I’m going slow on Stephen King’s Fairy Tale after reading a lot last week. I grabbed Exordia by Seth Dickinson off the library shelf this morning. My wife turned her nose up when she read the synopsis. I have different tastes. I’m hoping for the best.

    1. Exordia sounds like epic horror but is indeed a questionable choice because of the overly ambitious goals (save the universe) 🙂

      When something major needs saving, you’re short on choices. It can be the world, the galaxy, the universe, or in one particular case – the third dimension. One of 3-4-5 things. See, Stephanie Plum, for example, can try to catch all kinds of humans running away from the law. In 15 books so far, we got perhaps 20-25 different types of problems to be resolved.
