I just finished The Likeness by Tana French. Wow. It's the 2nd book in her Dublim Murder Squad series and they are so good.
Don't belong. Dangerous, like you. Can't be controlled. Can't be trusted. Everyone could just go on without me and not have to worry. People could be what they wanted to be. Could be with the people they wanted. Live simple. No secrets.

There's more to life than watching Buffy the Vampire Slayer! No. Really, there is! Honestly! Here's a place for Buffistas to come and discuss what it is they're reading, their favorite authors and poets. "Geez. Crack a book sometime."

I loved The Likeness.

I love those books so much. I think The Likeness is my favourite.
I am impatiently waiting to hear news on them becoming a TV series. (Which they better not fuck up.)

Is that the series that begins with In the Woods?

I love those books! I do think The Likeness is my favorite, with Faithful Place a close second. And I tore through the last one too (The Trespasser).

It's so much fun to find a good series that has a fair number of books in it.

Thanks, Amy. That extension is wonderful. I've been doing the library-availability checking manually and this is so much easier.
Calli, I love the Temeraire books. I recently re-read the whole series and just fell into the world. I did not want to leave. I also really appreciated Novik's writing -- the worldbuilding and the characters' voices, particularly Temeraire's. Such a charming character.

Isn't it the best, bennett? My Amazon wishlist functions as a kind of default library list anyway, but this is so efficient!
