Not getting through these books as quickly as I thought

I was planning on doing blog updates on Wednesdays and Fridays but unfortunately that plan has gone to pot a bit and I've only had this blog a few days! Just call me unreliable and lazy… and maybe a few others things. Anyway, instead I’ll tell you about what I'm currently reading and hopefully get one of these read ready for review on Wednesday, if I ever get my head around the one (My name is Dee) that is, I spend half my time reading that book in a constant state of confusion. I'm really hoping that I’ll start getting it soon because it’s giving me some really odd dreams, the last one was some sort of weird mix between Terminator and Inception which was a tad more disturbing than you’d think.

Right back to the point before I start on some sort of one woman discussion/boring monologue about the scare factor of nightmares. Like I said I'm currently reading two books, one during the day when I find myself with nothing to do and one that I read in bed.

Day reading

Title: The Darkness of Shadows

Author:  Chris Little

Description/Blurb:

Natalie’s parents weren't the nurturing type—and she has the physical and emotional wounds to prove it. For sixteen years she’s hidden behind a wall of sarcasm and decadent desserts, but now her father is back, and she has only one thought: to kill him before he can hurt the family that took her in.

But there’s more to his darkness than even his own daughter can understand, and a gun is no defence against magic that can raise the dead.

This one is quite decent so far but I'm not even half way through so there is a chance that can all change. I'm quite glad that I'm not reading this in the dark. It’s not really a book that is suitable for people who don’t like fantasy or something a bit creepy. I don’t really want to say too much about this one yet as I'm not too sure what points are going to be relevant to the plot and I’d hate to give away any spoilers.

Bed time reading

Title: My Name is Dee

Author: Robin Wyatt Dunn

Description/Blurb:

My Name is Dee is a novel for the reader who enjoys noir action, intrigue and dark romance, for the child in all of us who wants to go on adventures, and for the fearful adult too who marvels at the terrifying scale of this universe.
Battling aliens, journeying between dimensions, exploring the
immensity of the human mind, and saving a woman are on the docket for John Dee in this noir adventure. 

This is the book I mentioned earlier in this post, the one I don’t quite understand, because of this I’m finding it a bit hard going. It might clear up later when I can start joining all the dots, I guess Dee is meant to be a smidge insane so maybe the author is making a point by making the book confusing. I like what I can understand. That isn't a lot though, I mean at the moment I’m trying to work out if the main character killed someone of is trying to save them. Ah well, I’m only a quarter of the way in (keep going over what I've read in a bid to understand it all) so there’s no use in giving up on the thing or ripping it to shreds. I might get it in the end, fingers crossed.
