This morning I have just received PALE DEMON which is the latest in the Rachel Morgan series written by my good friend KIM HARRISON and ordered direct from the USA as it isn't yet available in the UK

I have had an on and off correspondence with Kim for some years and she was responsible for my going back to uni to get my MA in creative writing so she has a lot to answer for. Sadly I neglected to ask her to sign my copy!

Don't worry Janet - you only have 9 to read to catch me up! 

Just finished reading "The Court of the Air" by Stephen Hunt. Interesting and complex steampunkish book. Now, I'm going into a heavy work-read stage so I've started with "VMware vSphere and Virtual Infrastructure Security: Securing the Virtual Environment" by Edward Haletky. So far, most of it is familiar and a bit dated (was pre-vSphere).

I'm reading...
"Bright-sided: How Positive Thinking is Undermining America"by Barbara Ehrenreich
Good but a little biased, still worth a read.

Yay!

I've started reading "Feed" by Mira Grant. Interesting twist on the ol' zombie story.

I'm reading The book thief by Markus Zusak.

I've read 'Nickel and Dimed' and 'Bait and Switch', both very interesting books and good examples of a certain kind of subjective journalism.

"Destroyer of Worlds" by Larry Niven and Edward M. Lerner

Animals in Translation by Temple Grandin

It's a bit of a tie between Matthew Farrer's Enforcer and Brandon Sanderson's Warbreaker, although for some reason I managed about 60 pages of Moon's The Deed of Paksenarrion last night.

While I was at the Chillout GLBTIQ festival today in Daylesford I picked up a couple of SF classics. Edgar Rice Burroughs "A Princess of Mars", and "Mastermind of Mars". Originally published in 1912 and 1927.  It  will be interesting to see how they compare to a couple of other oldies I have.

The Year of the Flood by: Margaret Atwood. Generally I'm not a fan of sci-fi, but I love Margaret Atwood's version of sci-fi.

Yay!

Ugh!  Love that series!

Anyone read Randolph Lalonde's Spinward Fringe series?  I'm a few books in, and they're some of the best Sci-Fi I've read.  And the first 3 are freebies!

I love Marion's series.

Betrayer of Worlds by Larry Niven and Edward M. Lerner

I'm reading the Iliad by Homer for my English class.  It's pretty interesting if you're into classics.

Wonder Boys by Michael Chabon.

The Well of Loneliness by Radclyffe Hall

I have been reading a lot of poetry lately. I have read Edgar Allan Poe, Herman Melville, Sylvia Plath, and Claude McKay. I also have four anthologies that I'm perusing through.
