#75

The Sons of Heaven (The Company) by Kage Baker. The long-awaited ending to a great series. I really enjoyed it but I'm sad the saga is over.

#74

The Machine's Child (The Company) by Kage Baker. Second to last book of a series I've been reading since the disastrous trip to Solvang (and the only good thing to some out it).

#73

Dog Is My Co-Pilot: Great Writers on the World's Oldest Friendship by Bark Editors. I was afraid it would make me cry, but it wasn't too sad.

#72 Tattoo Girl

Tattoo Girl by Brooke Stevens. Yes, I know it's out of order but for some reason I thought I'd already blogged it... Anyway, I picked this one up because of the title and almost put it back down when I saw what it was about, but I liked it. I can't say I enjoyed it because a lot of it is too dark to be enjoyable. But it was well done and thought-provoking. In the end it confirmed my belief that religion causes a lot of harm and that women are stronger than most people think.

#73 Interred With Their Bones

Interred With Their Bones by Jennifer Lee Carrell. HS gave me this because of the connection to Cardenio, the craptastic play we saw while in Boston. She warned me it wasn't great but that it was worth it. I have to say if I could have followed the logic of the "who was Shakespeare" plot then I would have enjoyed it more. It's probably just me but I got completly tangled up and ended up zoning out. So not particularly recommended by me.

#71 Empire of Ivory

Empire of Ivory by Naomi Novick. Yes, I read through all three in a row. If I had had the 5th book, I would have gone straight into it.

#70 Black Powder War

Black Powder War by Naomi Novick. Still love this series.
