Tome Thursday: Term Limits

Hello everyone!

Summer is FINALLY here!

It's slated to get even hotter here than it is right now, and let me tell you, as much as this means a little bit of ingenuity with regards to being on the computer in a room that resembles a sauna without AC running, it's high time. We've had a rough going of it in May when we'd normally already be jamming in our daisy dukes, but May went on holiday and stuck us with a prolonged April instead.

So now, with June in the picture, it's FINALLY WARM.

I had such a fun time the other day when I went into town (on foot) and ended up perspiring because it was hot, and not because I was wearing too many layers to battle the cold outside and then melting once I got into an over-warm shop.

With high temperatures also come high stakes, at least in books if nothing else, and tonight is definitely no exception, but rather the norm for this rule!

Vince Flynn is probably one of my all-time favourite suspense authors, and I really need to sit down and read through his entire Mitch Rapp book series. But since I'm probably going to leave that one for the summer holidays, I picked something else for tonight.

A stand-alone of his, called Term Limits.

Tome Thursday: Any Means Necessary

Hello everyone!

I'm veering into a completely different direction with this week's book post, but then again I have been known to do that from time to time. I'll start reading a fantasy book, then get distracted and hitch a ride on the Orient Express with Agatha Christie, and then once I can't giggle at Hercule Poirot anymore I'm going to probably read a silly romance before I return to the fantasy book.

Or, failing that, I'm going to be suggested a book by Kobo, helpfully, and then I'll devour it in a day or two.

This was what happened when Bookbub, not Kobo actually, suggested I might want to take a look at Jack Mars' books, but it suggested book four in a series, and me being who I am, I want to start things from the very beginning, obviously.

So I went and checked it out, and hello! Kobo was offering the first in the Luke Stone thriller books for free.

Obviously, that was a no brainer and I grabbed it, downloaded it to my e-reader, and managed to get through it in two days tops, I do believe.

Because, the female thing aside, I do like a good thriller book.
