This is probably the only time all year that I'll be all caught up!
Hahaha, and also perhaps the only time all year we'll be level? I just finished book 11, but I haven't written any up yet. There's a couple of trilogy re-reads I'm going to mash into single entries, though!
My kitchen, on the other hand, is apparently open to the world, leaking half-finished sauces and runaway metaphors. Um. Pay no attention to the man behind the curtain; fix your attention on Lahiri instead.
Heh. I like your runaway metaphors!
I didn't like Skellig - it was creepy and weird and didn't seem to go anywhere. But I remember it fondly as one of the two books the children's department of Waterstones sold my mother to take on holiday, and which we shared around between us that summer - the other was a little-known book which had just recently been published under the title Harry Potter and the Philosopher's Stone, and had a good deal more competition for reading time. *g*
8. Revise the World, Brenda Clough - I'm so glad you liked it! Also, it is MY book 8, too! Anyway: I thought you might, because I knew you were a sucker for the "travel to the future" thing, but I was afraid that I was being blinded by the AWESOMENESS of the premise *g*. It was just SO AWESOME I still find myself giggling with glee that it is REAL. In fact, the only sadness in my heart right now is that it's apparently not in actual print so I can't buy it and have a copy to hold in my hands. I AM CONSIDERING SENDING FAN EMAIL TO THE AUTHOR.
