A little bit about what you'll find reviewed here

A little bit about what you'll find reviewed on this blog: I believe the best books involve characters you wish you could read more about long after the book is finished. Recently, I've been searching for hidden gems from the past. I read mostly fiction, and I'm a bit of a prude. I don't normally enjoy books with sex or excessive language.

Who I am:
I raised two wonderful girls, and I'm super proud of them. I enjoy reading (of course), sewing, cross stitching, photography and writing. I live in the high desert portion of Washington (which I didn't know existed until my husband and I decided to move here) and have really enjoyed my time out here. I am excited to see what God has next in store for my life!

The Halfling's Gem (Icewind Dale #3) - R. A. Salvatore

The third book in the trilogy finds our heroes headed toward Calimport to rescue Regis. To my great delight, a certain flaming dwarf has reappeared!

Drizzt had a lot to deal with in this book. He had a personal struggle with who he was as a person. The assassin seemed to be the antithesis of Drizzt, and it really bothered him. He's also lost his panther, his friend, and he's trying to travel incognito. He has a mask, but his friends aren't happy about him wearing it. He puts it on for the sake of Regis, but it makes him think.

There's some great action in this book, and I really enjoyed it. I was a bit bummed Mr. Assassin slipped away. I'm thinking he'll pop up again sometime in the future, but I don't know. Next up in my Drizzt list is the Legacy of the Drow series, but it might be a bit. We had a trip to some bookstores recently, so I'm going to try and get through some of those. It's been years since I'd been in a Half Price Books, and going in three may have given me more to read than I really needed...

Who am I kidding? I can never have too much to read!

The Halfling's Gem? Good Book! Neat Trilogy!
