Hilariously bad
This is a bit like Sex and the City, in terms of being so terrible, it's a guilty pleasure. And the fact that it has had 90 million downloads constitutes it as a cultural phenomenon.

The podcast is self-explanatory, in which the host Jamie Morton discovers that his retired father has begun dabbling in writing erotica. Introducing Belinda Blinked, her profuse sweatiness, and those 'pomegranates'. As a result, he decides to bring his friends into the action, each week discussing a chapter and literally peeing their pants over how hilariously bad it is. Beware, listening to this in public can cause people to give you strange looks as you attempt to stifle a laugh.

It has received such acclaim that we're onto book three now. It's obviously for adults only, but it's cheeky and pretty ridiculous.

Like the cover suggests this one follows Lando on an adventure that is perfect for all ages. My younger sons enjoyed the plot and the simplicity of the read. While it seemed like it went on a bit at the end overall the characters were a great addition to the greater star wars world. Lando acted like you would expect from his younger self and created good humor and good interactions. It felt great to see him by himself doing his own adventures without needing the more major characters.
Highly recommend to anyone who loves Star Wars as well as parents who wish to get their children into the fandom as well as reading. Perfect middle grade chapter book for school as well. I think any age would enjoy this even if they are an adult.

Hunted (The Iron Druid Chronicles, #6)

Book number 6 in Kevin Hearne's Iron Druid Chronicles, this picks up almost immediately - like, immediately, immediately - after the end of the previous, with Atticus, Oberon and Granuaile all on the run from Artemis and Diana.

It also has quite an unexpected killing-off of a major character early on - in the first chapter or so - and an unexpected event roughly about halfway through.

As before, this is mainly told from the Point of View of Atticus himself, although there are the occassional parts of the story that are told from that of Granuaille.

With the chase finally ending up in England (more familiar to me), and with the introduction of what looks likely to become a new major character at the tail end of the story, I'm looking forward to seeing where the series goes!

I loved that the main character Is a bit crazy and klutzy. Fell in love but didn't even understand what was going on. Was stupidly funny and made me cry from laughing so much. (0 more)
That there is no spin off to this series for the best friend. A couple of the character seem to have exactly the same personality but they just cranked up the bitchy-ness. (0 more)

So this series is amazing I laughed my head at at the antics that happened. The main character will make you want to scream at you book,phone what ever you read on because she seems to be blind to what happening with the guy she meets in the first chapter. The best friend is amazing I want to be her, she is a complete bitch and it's great.
