GoodReads Monday

This weekly meme was started by @Lauren’s Page Turners. It is now being hosted by Budget Tales Book Blog. To participate, choose a random book from your GoodReads TBR and show it off. Which sounds easy enough until you have to decide how to choose that book! I think I will use a different way each week, like picking a color or number of pages. I will let you know each week how I chose the book and then something interesting about it, like how it ended up on the list or why I want to read it. Got it? Okay let’s get started.

Are you aware that tomorrow, January 16th, is Appreciate a Dragon Day?Well now you know.It is one of my favorite days of the year.So in honor of this day, I have chosen a dragon book to share with you.This is the second book in the Dragon Scales trilogy.I loved the first book, Dragonfall, last year and I am really looking forward to reading this one.It will be a long wait though, it doesn’t come out till October.But I am sure there will be lots of other dragon books till then to keep me entertained, they seem to be coming back in style.

Summary from Goodreads:

Long-banished dragons, revered as gods, return to the mortal realm in the second book in this magical, romantic, epic fantasy trilogy from a London Times bestselling author

One volume has closed and the next opened. But a different Archivist writes this now, for the last has flown out to the horizon and never returned. I wish I could promise all turned out well. That fate arced its way straight and true towards fairness and justice. If there is one thing I have learned, it is that life, even one touched by magic and fate, is never tidy.

But no matter how difficult things became, I cannot shy away from putting it all down, tempting as it is to burn certain pages. I made a pact and a promise that I would show it all. The good, the bad, the intimacy, and the betrayal. I am, for better or worse, the new archivist. I have to let it stand.

Stories often begin with either a life or a death. This one is the latter.

I just love that cover and that summary is making me want the book now!Oh well, I will just have to learn patience I guess.What dragon books do you have one your TBR?How will you celebrate Appreciate a Dragon Day? Until next time…

Happy Reading!
