What have you recently finished reading?
Point of Dreams, by Melissa Scott and Lisa A. Barnett. Still wonderful. Still love it.
For Darkness Shows the Stars, by Diana Peterfreund. It was good, really awesome worldbuilding, but I just don't buy Persuasion as played by teenagers. It's a love story for mature adults who have more or less given up, and reading it with eighteen-year-olds just doesn't play somehow. Still, if you love scifi and worldbuilding more than Persuasion, by all means read it! It's very well-written.
I Don't Want To Be Crazy, by Samantha Schutz. As I said before, a revealing look into an anxiety disorder.
The Leaf and the Cloud, by Mary Oliver. I needed some poetry in my life, and Mary Oliver is always a friend to me.
Sarah, Plain and Tall, by Patricia MacLachlan. Much shorter than I remembered, but no less moving.
What are you currently reading?
Fair's Point, the new points novel! *clutches it to her chest and sighs happily* So far, so amazing.
Jane Boleyn, by Julia Fox. Yes, still, shut up.
Unabomber, by John Douglas. I'm on a true crime Douglas kick.
Nine Rules to Break When Romancing a Rake, by Sarah McLean. I love her novel titles ok. And she's got a nice, lighthearted way of writing that I haven't seen since Julia Quinn.
Little, Big, by John Crowley. Intricate and lovely.
Anahita's Woven Riddle. Nearly done with this one!
What will you read next?
Uh, let's see, a biography about Catherine d'Medici, Hero's Song, Daughter of Smoke and Bone, and whatever I grab off the TBR pile.
