Booklog 2007: Week 4
Jan. 29th, 2007 11:00 amWhy do I feel the need to keep coming up with lame-o introductions to this? It says it's a book post, you can tell that it's a book post. I need to shut up now.
Week 4: 22-28 January 2007
( 19. Espedair Street — Iain Banks ) I know that some people think that the Puddlejumpers ‘verse is depressing, but let me just say: Have I electrocuted anybody? No, I have not. Think about that. ;-)
( 20. Last Days of Summer — Steve Kluger ) I have to admit that the all-too-inevitable ending made me cry.
( 21. Transformation — Carol Berg ) Even without actually being slash, this book is the slasher’s dream come true. I only hope the next two volumes in the trilogy are half as good.
( 22. You Are Not a Stranger Here — Adam Haslett ) These stories are stark and incredible, but not recommended reading if you’re feeling the least bit emotionally vulnerable!
( 23. Geography Club — Brent Hartinger ) So while I don’t think it’s possible for me to really get all that much out of this book, I’m glad that it exists. When you’re a teenager—gay or straight—it’s helpful just to know that you’re not alone, that you’re not the only one who feels as fucked up as you do. (Actually, that lesson is helpful anytime.)
( 24 & 25. Astonishing X-Men: Gifted & Astonishing X-Men: Dangerous — Joss Whedon ) Because even with the number of times I’ve been burned, I do trust in Joss. What a silly little fangirl I am.
Total Books: 25
ETA: Speaking of reading—damn, there is a ton of awesome-looking fic today! Why must I be so frickin' busy?
