X-Files Origins: Agent of Chaos | 
pickThe X-Files is my favorite show of all time, so this was right in my wheelhouse. It was a load of fun to read about Mulder as a kid and to learn more about Cigarette Smoking Man. I‘m not sure if this is the type of book only hard-core fans can appreciate, but I had a blast with it!
I am posting one book per day from my extensive to-be-read collection. No description or reason for wanting to read the book. Some are old and some will be new. Don't judge me - I have a lot of books.
Day 38

pickI saw this book at the library and immediately checked it out. I watched the X-Files series and loved it. I recognized the author‘s name so I wa pretty sure I would enjoy this.
This was a really good mystery/thriller. And there was some conspiracies thrown in for fans of the series. My only complaint was it didn‘t feel like Mulder‘s voice to me. I kept forgetting this was an X-Files prequel. I enjoyed reading this.
panNot the tagged book.
This is a collection of short stories, narrated by a full cast. The stories are mediocre, as is the narration. If you're a mega fan of the show, you may enjoy this one more than I did. I just didn't really care for any of the stories (The flukeman one was the best of the bunch, but even that one was not particularly inspired). Glad this was free. 👽
pickThis was a fantastic book! I love Fox Mulder and I really, really enjoyed reading how he developed an interest in behavioral science and join the FBI and how he decided to go to Oxford. A slightly slow start, but I was soon hooked!
Monsters shouldn't be able to blend in with normal people. If a kid came face-to-face with one, how were they supposed to know?
pickIf you‘re an X-Files fan and like YA, you‘ll dig this story of Mulder as a teen. Fast-paced & well-written, it will leave you craving more X-Files origin stories.
This isn't in the #Litsy database yet but I preordered this on audible because it's read by the cast and I think it will be so fun to listen to this while making the long drive from New Orleans to Las Vegas next week!
so-soI will admit I read this book because Kami Garcia wrote it. Although I'm still waiting for the third Legion book. It was your typical thriller. I still think she should have wrote the third Legion book first.
pickI flew through this one! This was definitely a story more interesting to me. I liked the pace and it was a bit more to the point. It ties in with Dana's book, and takes place before her. I read them backwards but it doesn't actually matter to the stories. After reading these, I want to go watch some x-files 😊
Now to read young Fox Mulder's story :)
pickA definite read for any X-Files fan. It was a quick, entertaining read. I especially liked how at the end she used the name of real FBI agents during that time (the guys who started the BSU). It added that feel of legitimacy. ⭐️⭐️⭐️

pickAll the mysteries, conspiracy theories and quirky characters of the X Files with a fun YA twist! Fox Mulder as a teen crime solver driven by the kidnapping of his sister Samantha, and how that set the stage for his FBI career. X Files fans will get a kick out of his origin story!
WUUUUUT I loved this so much I can't explain it. Mulder's backstory is so epic and Kami Garcia WAS Fox Mulder. A+frickin+

My son is being medically retired from the Navy in ten days for Crohn's Disease that reared its ugly head about a year ago. We are so excited he is coming home to civilian life. He started shipping things home and in the first box were signed copies of the new X Files Origins Books and Swag that he had signed for me at Mysterious Galaxy Book Store in San Diego. Sweetest kid ever!!!!
pick"With plenty of intrigue, mystery, romance, and a cast of quirky and memorable characters, Kami Garcia has brought the excitement of the TV series back to audiences, providing Mulder‘s wit and excellent detective skills for a new generation."
pickAnother late read to finish the series. I enjoyed Mulder's story more than Scully's, it just felt like more of an origin story than hers. You knew right away where he was heading after the book was over and the next time you'd see him would be in the television series. There were also some awesome cameos in this book. A good read for an x-files fan. #agentofchaos #thexfilesorigins #Iwanttobelieve
Tried to put a library book on hold today, and it denied my card. So, of course I had to rush to the library immediately to resolve the problem (computer glitch!). I left with these and three more on hold. As if I didn't already have too many books on my TBR.
pickThe cover for this book was beautiful, but I especially loved how cool the endpapers were. The book itself is not something that will blow you away, but it is a fun read for any X-Files fan! As much as I was unsure about it before I really enjoyed reading Mulders origin story.
pickI liked this. Didn't love it. I really really really want a book about Phoebe now.
I appreciated the nods towards the tv series, and the use of the names of actual FBI profilers, it was a nice touch.
I'll be honest, I originally wasn't going to read this one, only the Scully book, but the completist in me kicked in and I changed my mind. 🙃I certainly don't regret it.
pickThis was pretty good! It felt like watching an episode of X-Files, which was nice!
I 💖 Fox Mulder.
Also this is #letterX crossed off of my #LitsyAtoZ list!!
Starting on #LetterX this morning! 👽👽 #LitsyAtoZ
pickThis one was a lot better than the Dana Scully story, and they connected the two stories together, which was even more exciting! The characters were much better developed and Mulder's side kicks were interesting. There's no great resolution at the end - it's very unsettling, like any good X-Files episode is. Yes. This was everything that I wanted from the other book and didn't get. 👽👽👽
Saw this sign at my library while picking up the Kami Garcia and Jonathan Maberry X Files books! 👌 #librarylove
A last name that lets you know that sh*t's going to get real in a sci-fi book. All that's missing is a black 1967 Impala.
Back at it. There is absolutely no way I'm making it to 24 hours for #24in48 but I'm going to keep chugging along for fun. Starting the Mulder novel first since he will always be my one and only. 💕👽💕

pickI ate this up!! Start to finish today. I found this origin story of Fox Mulder to be satisfying in every way. Kami Garcia wrote great, quirky characters, conspiracy theory, alien references, 1979 pop culture and a pot-boiler mystery. I wish it was just a bit creepier, but really, I couldn't put it down. I will look forward to picking up Scully's origin story by Jonathan Maberry in the near future!
