Annemieke from A DANCE WITH BOOKS and I buddy read this fourth book in the Tiffany Aching DISCWORLD arc. We have buddy read all but the first Tiffany book and plan to read the last one together, too. We just love the Big Wee Hag to pieces.

BIRACIAL CHILDREN

NETGALLEY ARC

This is set in 1992, the year my son was born. So far there are five different POVs: a teenage girl, a middle-aged man, a senior citizen, a middle-aged woman, and a sixth grade boy. It is a very interesting story. There is way more sex in it than I expected, but it isn't taking away from the issue elements in the story like in the book I recently read, City Mouse.

GOODREADS

This is by the author of THE HITCHHIKER'S GUIDE TO THE GALAXY. I saw just now, when getting the image from Goodreads, that this is book number two, but it doesn't matter because it is a dictionary of made up words. It is pretty funny, but I wouldn't pay full price for it. I got it for $1.99 and that is a good price. It is still on sale right now if you are interested.

Heather from RANDOM REDHEADED RAMBLINGS was raving about her ARC, so I ran to Netgalley and requested it. It published June 1st.

SERIES I WANT TO START

I have at least the first book in all of these series.

1. THE DARKEST MINDS TRILOGY

By Alexandra Bracken

I have all three of these as ebooks thanks to the urging of Cyra from RATTLE THE PAGES.

2. THE JACKABY QUARTET

By William Ritter

I had the first book as an ARC from Netgally that I never got around to, and since then I have picked up the first three as $1.99 ebooks here and there. I just requested the last title on Netgalley.

3. THE CHAOS WALKING TRILOGY
By Patrick Ness
Everyone has been raving about these books. I have all three as ebooks. I bought one and three for $1.99, so it wasn't too painful to buy the second book for $6.99.

4.THE DIRK GENTLY TRILOGY
By Douglas Adams
These titles make me laugh because if I was a boy my name was going to be Dirk. Ha! I am so happy I was not a boy. I am sure I would have been called Dirk the Dork in school. I have the first two books in an ebook bundle I bought for $1.99. These books are by the author of THE HITCHHIKER'S GUIDE TO THE GALAXY.

5. THE PASSAGE TRILOGY
By Justin Cronin
I have the first two titles as audiobooks.

6. THE RED RISING QUARTET
By Pierce Brown
I have the first two books from Netgalley. I have since bought the first book as a $1.99 ebook.

7. THE THEMIS FILES
By Sylvain Nuvel
I have both books: SLEEPING GIANTS and WAKING GODS from Netgalley. I don't know if it is a duology, or more.

8. THE SEED TO HARVEST QUARTET
By Octavia E. Butler
Both Talitha from VICTORIAN SOUL CRITIQUES and Michelle from IN LIBRIS VERITAS love this author. I trust them so much I have bought ten Butler books so far! I have all four of these titles. I bought them as an ebook bundle for $3.99.

9. THE TIMEKEEPER TRILOGY
By Tara Sim
The first book comes highly lauded by Annemieke from A DANCE WITH BOOKS. I hope I love it because the cover is beautiful and I want it on my bookshelf. I got the ebook on sale for $1.99 a while back. The second book publishes this fall.

10. THE SIX OF CROWS DUOLOGY
By Leigh Bardugo
I love the Grishaverse! I nabbed the first ebook for $1.99 a couple of weeks ago.
