What's on my nightstand?

I love to find out what everyone is reading. It's one of my favorite things to talk about. When I was younger, my summers were spent at my grandmother's. We would spend many afternoons sitting around the kitchen table discussing the books we were reading. We talked about the plots, the characters, and what it would be like to live during that time (we read a lot of historical romances.) Now I discuss those things with my husband (when he will listen) or with readers and other authors. Since I always want to know what others are reading, I thought I would share what I'm reading...

The first book on my nightstand is Voyager by Diana Gabaldon. I love her books. Really love her books. Like really, really love her books. (Did I mention how much I love her books?) In my opinion they are truly epic novels that are timeless and could be read again and again. I just can't get enough of them.

The second book on my nightstand (well, not really not my nightstand. This one's on my Kindle) is The Slayer by Kele Moon. It's not released yet but one of the secret perks of being an author is getting to read manuscripts before anyone else gets them. I have the privilege of reading Kele's manuscripts every once in a while and giving her my feedback. I did exactly that with The Slayer and now I'm enjoying the finished version. Love me some Kele Moon books!

Next on my list is...who knows. I have such a long TBR pile. To pick is hard, there are so many great authors to chose from. But my first priority is spending long hours in my writing cave. I've got numerous books that are halfway finished, sitting on my computer waiting for some attention. The characters in my head can be very demanding and grouchy. Must keep them happy. ;)
