So what's everyone reading right now while we wait?

I haven't started a book yet. I need to read Princes of the Universe before Sunday, but don't know if I want to start that yet or go with something else. Decisions, decisions. lol

Erica Ugh, I have too many things I'm supposedly "Currently Reading". Brothers of the Wild North Sea by Harper Fox for Bingo, and The Architect and the Castle of Glass for the Mini Monthly Gang Bang and Adrift by Isabelle Adler for the audiobook challenge and Exit Plans for Teenage Freaks by Nathan Burgoine just for fun . . . and, really, I'm not making much progress on any of them because I keep reading fanfic instead. There's a fanfic event going on right now that I kind of took part in, so I'm reading all of the entries by everyone who participated and getting behind on my other reading goals. Sheesh!

I was looking at Princes of the Universe the other day. You'll have to let me know how it goes.

Trio yeah I've got too many books half finished too - Kris Ripper's Scientific Method, The Difference Between, When Heaven Strikes (audio), and I've got an arc of Raze which is fantastic!


~ Lei ~ Reading Is An Adventure ~ (leilanilives2read) | 53 comments I am half-way through Masc (Femme, #2) by Marshall Thornton Masc. I was kind of having a brain funk and couldn't decide what to read and after reading a few pages of a couple of other books, settled on this one (in the Humor collection) and laughing while revisiting Lionel, Dog and Carlos.

It was sweet. They became friends first so it was a bit of a slow burn, but it wasn't too slow. I liked it.

Agreed!!!!!
There are always good sales, too. Keep an eye out for those.
Maybe next year I can remember (Hahahaha) to look about adding a question like “are you willing to get things not on your list but are recommendations as an additional bonus”. I always see things pop up on sale or for free that I’d love to share, but never know if someone has read it or is interested.

I've totally done that before. Just send an extra book or two if it looks good and like something on their wish list.

Just got BAD NEWS in the mail :(

Less Than Three is sutting down.
Your library will be available to download through September 30, 2019.
All books will be removed from the LT3 Book Market and third-party vendors by July 31.
Books written by Megan Derr and Sasha L. Miller will be available for longer, but no timeframe was specified.


~ Lei ~ Reading Is An Adventure ~ (leilanilives2read) | 53 comments Thanks for the heads-up. I think I've always downloaded copies to Calibre (learned from Fictionwise RIP) but I should double-check.

Yep, after Barnes & Noble screwed us up, and especially after All Romance fiasco, I download everything religiously.

... pushed the post button too fast.

So sad to see LT3 Press go. This is another reminder why we need to support the publishers and the small folk.
