I just finished The Year of Our War and am terribly excited to read the sequel. I had no idea what I was getting into when I ordered this book from the library, but it was incredible. However, I won't rant and rave like I want to because, on the off chance one of you sees this and reads it, i don't want that inevitable disappointment we all feel when something has been hyped. 

I will tell you this: Jant Comet is one of the finest drawn characters I've had the privilege to read about and this book is absolutely, fantastically weird and jittery, but in a grand way. But I'm also not saying that the book is flawless, far from it, but it's so damn compelling I couldn't put it down. For a first time novel, Steph Swainston's book is pretty amazing. So glad she wrote sequels.

Started Predator's Gold and I really, really hope it's as good as Mortal Engines, I'm on page 35, so far so good.


Won't be on anymore today or tomorrow as I will be locked away with Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows. ::grumbles:: even though it's been terribly spoiled for me and I'm not particularly looking forward to reading it anymore. But, as we know, I'm a lemming, so over the cliff I go.
