"And then a sliver of light blinks through the bathroom window and reflects back at me in the mirror. I lift a hand to block it. It's not the beam of light from the lighthouse. It's something else.

I squint through the rain-streaked window. A boat is pulling up to the dock down on the lower bank.

Someone is here." p 74

  1. I still need to do Winter. I love that series so I don't know what is wrong with me for not having finished it yet.

  2. My list is pretty much dominated by SFF books with the Illuminae Files, Cassandra Clare, and SJM dominating the list.

  4. I haven't read any of the novels mentioned in your TTT post this week, but they are all so popular!

    I do have the audio version of The Count of Monte Cristo from Audible waiting for me to listen to it though... But I have been putting it off due to the length!
