2005: #28 – Wicked (Gregory Maguire)

April 18, 2005January 14, 2021

Book #28 was Wicked: The Life and Times of the Wicked Witch of the West, by Gregory Maguire. I thought this book was really interesting. It certainly makes you think of the Wizard of Oz in a completely different way. I have to give it a thumbs up, and I would love to see the musical someday. Book count: 28/50 — 56% Number of pages:

2005: #27 – Open Season (Linda Howard)

April 14, 2005January 14, 2021

Book #27 was Open Season, by Linda Howard. It must be a week of firsts! This is the first Linda Howard book I’ve read. It was alright — kinda corny, but in a somewhat cute way. It was more sex than mystery, I think. I’d probably pick up another of her books if I found it on the cheap, but I don’t think I’d search

2005: #26 – The Sigma Protocol (Robert Ludlum)

April 14, 2005January 14, 2021

Book #26 was The Sigma Protocol by Robert Ludlum. This is the first Ludlum book I’ve read, and I enjoyed it, for the most part. It had a little bit too much bad guy monologing that I tended to skim, but I got the jist of it. I like spy/espionage/intrigue stories, and Ludlum is one of the best. Book count: 26/50 — 52% Pages in

2005: #25 – Ceremony in Death (J.D. Robb)

April 1, 2005January 14, 2021

Halfway there! Book #25 was Ceremony in Death, book #5 in J.D. Robb’s (Nora Roberts) Eve Dallas/In Death series. Still love these books. I really get sucked into them and read them quickly. Plus, Roarke is super-sexy. Book count: 25/50 — 50% Pages in book: 329 Page count: 7,716/15,000 — 51.44%

I really liked the heart of this book. I loved April and her unapologetic geekiness, and I liked what Dade has to say about body positivity, and that she wrote a male protagonist that walks the talk. What I wasn’t expecting was just how detailed into the fanfiction subculture this was going to go. It’s one of the few times I’ve started a book and
