OK as the month is drawing to a close (how did that happen???) I thought I would do an update on books I have finished this month - and there are quite a few Firstly "the precious" Onyx Storm! I so wanted to read this and desperately so but also didnt want it to finish so I actually "rationed" my reading time!
