I’ve been absent from this here blog for a couple of months. I can only tell you that life is full of hijinks and mundanity and all of it takes up time. I suppose technically I could tell you more but it's really not all that interesting from a blogging standpoint. But I have a plan, of sorts, to keep things bloggity rolling in here a little more ( Read more... )

I meant to post this up on Halloween. I meant to do several things. I was distracted by a costume party and knitting, in that order. Whoops. And of course, all of the regular things that need doing, such as work and sleep and food. However now I have set of spooky (but not too spooky) book reviews to get to, so let’s get to gettin’. Better late ( Read more... )

Why hello there, bloggity! I have a little review for you! Today, I’m reviewing Nnedi Okorafor’s novella, Binti, which I read and enjoyed. There will necessarily be spoilers, because I don’t think I can talk about this without them.

Binti is SF, set in a future where Earth is one of many planets that have interstellar travel. Our protagonist, Binti ( Read more... )

It seems weird that the end of August is here. How does time? What is present? So, OK, I didn't get nearly as much done this month as I had planned. In anything. But I do have another review to put up, so I will do that right now.

Very minor spoilers, but I don't think I give very much away. I read it knowing nothing about it but the cover copy and ( Read more... )

Blog, blog, what is blog? I have been neglectful, poor thing. It’s been a difficult month and more, but not very interesting to write about, so I’ve fallen behind. I don't really have any new or fun information regarding my own writing to impart to you, other than that things are still, er, fluid, and evolving, and I will tell you what I can when I ( Read more... )

Hello, second week of November! The first week was pretty ... ok, yeah, I'm going to go with epic. For me, anyway. Let me detail the ways.

Sunday was the really big day - after the con was over (and some lunch and walking unplanned shenanigans happened), Julie, Scott and I headed over to Beaverton for the Powell's big SF author signing. There were ( Read more... )

There's a hashtag going around on Twitter - #undercovered - for women writers people think aren't covered or reviewed enough, are ignored in the book blogging and reporting world. I don't read huge numbers of reviews, so I can't tell you who is and is not getting reviewed. But it is true that writers who are women tend to get fewer reviews, smaller ( Read more... )

I would like to talk to you all about my recent author-crush, Sarah Rees Brennan. Her latest book, "Unspoken" is out today. I got to read it a little early, because apparently the local bookstore gets books in early? Or something? Anyway, they called me last week, and I read it over the weekend, and I heart it so very, very much. Thank you, Third ( Read more... )
