Happy Friday, Bookworms! Here’s what the team at Simon & Schuster Canada is reading.Jordyn, Sales Assistant: I just finished Loyalty in Death, by J.D. Robb (Nora Roberts’ pseudonym). This book is number 9 in the in Death series. I’m not even close to finishing because there are over 50 books in the series, and they’re still coming out! I love this series because each book is a murder mystery set in a futuristic mid-21st century New York City. The main character, Lieutenant Eve Dallas, had a rough childhood, but makes up for it by being a badass homicide cop who is prickly but efficient. It also helps that there’s a hunky love interest, but really, solving the murder mystery takes precedence in this series. It’s a lengthy series, but maybe one day I’ll manage to catch up!Jacquelynne, Marketing Assistant: As you may all recall, I was reading Owl and the Japanese Circus a little while ago. I put that book down to start reading for one of our Conferences and forgot to pick it back up. Just recently I picked it up again, and I forgot how much I LOVED Owl, Rynn, Oricho, and (of course) Captain. With that in mind, I decided to pick up the second volume, Owl and the City of Angels. I am only a few chapters in, but Owl is just as feisty and funny as ever! I love how Kristi Charish has built a character I can so easily connect with, and secondary characters that really build and move the plot. The settings are always intriguing, and the mix of modern and historical elements are definitely a favourite of mine. Owl is truly a modern Indiana Jane, with a few nerdy qualities I can’t help but adore. If you’re a fan of supernatural, historical, and adventurous light reading, Kristi Charish’s Owl Series is for you. And now is the perfect time to start this series, because this May marks the third installment in the series: Owl and the Electric Samurai.Holley, Publicity Assistant: I loved reading The Impossible Fortress by Jason Rekulak! It is a delightful story about young love between two young computer coders! The novel brings you into the 1980s in a coming of age story about friendship and young love.  A great read for anyone, with the bonus of being able to play the game from the book online at http://www.jasonrekulak.com/game/  -- source link
