What Are You Reading?

I thought that to start this forum off we could have a thread
where we could talk about what we are busy reading; yes a staple
of many a forum but unlike other "What Are You Reading" threads
I don't want you to just title drop and run, but I would like
your thoughts, feelings and impressions on what you have read so
far.
Really tell us about what you are reading like you would to a
friend over a nice cuppa tea/coffee.
I will start first - I a busy reading The Deed of Paksenrrion by
Elizabeth Moon, I am on book two of the series, Divided
Allegiance.
So far I have enjoyed the characters as well as the plot, it is
a twist on the normal hero saves the day fantasy and I find it
easy to sympathise with Paks. She is warm but at the same time,
not all mushy as some writers tend to make their warm characters
be. The series is a slow one, even though it has a number of big
battles it is more of a single POV character driven story so the
pace of the plot it dictated by Paks emotional and physical
advancement, not by the big events around her.
I only hope that it has a happy ending for her, if it doesn't I
am going to feel very cheated after all the attempts I have
gained for Paks.
