Game of Thrones. It's my husband's favorite series. Also, HBO is filming the show at the end of this month...

The Princess Bride is excellent. I'm currently in the middle of rereading it. So I voted for it. The Hobbit is my next choice.

Ok... so I have narrowed it to three...
The Deed of Paksenarrion, His Magesty's Dragon and American Gods. I'm leaning towards the first since it is available DRM free from webscriptions. But, I did just "buy" His Magesty's dragon for free from the Kindle store. Decisions, decisions... I'm hoping for an excellent book this month. The last two month's were a bit disappointing. BOb |
