Book Bites

• I have been so excited about The Reckoning (see review below) that I somehow missed the release of the second Kelley Armstrong charity book, Tales of the Otherworld. The book is the follow up to Men of the Otherworld, both were anthologies from her web novellas mixed with some new stuff, all proceeds go to the World Literacy of Canada charity. You can order the book here. It's on my list!


• Harper Connelly is becoming a comic book! I'm not a huge fan of comics. I'm too impatient to read the story in small bits and pieces, I always want to read the whole thing at once–I'm still waiting for Buffy season 8 to become one big omnibus. Either way, I'm really curious to see how Harper and Tolliver are portrayed and I'm definitely going to take a look.


• Countdown to Dead in the Family by Charlaine Harris: 13 days! I've got to remember to pre-order it, last year I didn't do it in time and had to buy it full price at the bookstore–which I almost never do :S The last Sookie book was a bit of a let down and way more disturbing than necessary, I'm hoping that this one brings it all back and from the name of the title it seems like it could do just that.
