Ahh.. the third and final book. I loved it! This trilogy was a complete joy to read and I ended up loving all the characters. There were some very interesting twists in this one, kept me on my feet for sure.

House of Cards (The Negotiator Trilogy book 2)
And we're back - almost immediately following the first book. Lots of interesting twists and turns and we get to the know the characters even better, especially The Old Races. Grit really gets herself in deep but it's not so scary now because she's earned a lot of respect. Again some romance but not over the top. I immediately had to start the third after finishing this one!

Heart of Stone (The Negotiator Trilogy book 1)
by C.E. Murphy
I loved this book! I'm really a huge C.E. Murphy fan now and immediately went and purchased the other two books in this trilogy to listen to! I love the characters, I love the plot, everything. There's some romance, but not over the top (only a little eye rolling). There's mystery inherent in the story since the world is one with a lot of secrets (The Old Races). The main character is strong and charismatic and stands up for herself against even the scariest of others. Highly enjoyable read!

Brisingr
by Christopher Paolini.
This is only book 3 of 4 (it is no longer a trilogy). What a wonderful book. It really tied a lot up and answered a lot of questions. It was great, well done and very enjoyable. The last hour or so I couldn't put it down and stayed up late to finish it.
The tough part is figuring out what to get into next ??

Breaking Dawn
by Stephenie Meyer.
Finally!!!! I had been waiting for this one - and then I had to wait to get 2 credits on audible before I could purchase it! It was worth it though! Very interestingly done in multiple parts from different perspectives.
Luckily, 2 of the things I had "spoiled" for me (my own fault by reading reviews) happened in the first and second part of the book so the third part was a complete unknown to me. The perfect balance.
And what a 3rd part! I loved this book and I think Stephenie Meyer did a wonderful job. I am ranking this up there as my second favorite series - the first one being Poison Study, Magic Study, Fire Study. This one is great!

Eldest
by Christopher Paolini.
A second time read for me - even though this is a large book, I went through it very fast. I really really love Eldest - probably because I love getting to know characters, see them grow/change without the conflict so that I later really understand their actions. I was also spurred on to get to the third book! I had forgotten a lot of how this one played out in the end and it was great to re-read it. I can't wait to see what Brisingr brings next!

Coyote Dreams (The Walker Papers book 3)
by C.E. Murphy
I loved this one - the whole time - except at the very very very end - the last couple of lines practically - that part I didn't like at all. But the rest was great and hopefully if this series continues I'll be happy again. More character development and very well done. I really enjoyed it!
