May 2016 Bookpost
And juuuuust sneaking in May's books before we get to July. This is the shortest list so far this year, partly because I managed almost no fiction reading time during Balticon, partly because it took some time to get through the DC Metro history (#47).
42. Gentleman Jole and the Red Queen, Lois McMaster Bujold - The latest book in the Vorkosigan series. Not quite sure what I think about this one. The humor we all know and love is there, but the overall stakes plotwise seem rather low. Definitely some character development though! 8-)
43. Every Heart a Doorway, Seanan McGuire (novella)
44. Civil War, Mark Millar (writer), Steve McNiven (artist)(graphic novel) - Obviously read in connection with the movie. (Yes, I know, different story/universe. It's called curiosity.)
45. The Jewel and Her Lapidary, Fran Wilde (novella)
46. Between the World and Me, Ta-Nehisi Coates
47. The Great Society Subway, Zachary M. Schrag - Schrag's history of the DC area's Metro system was published for the 30th anniversary of the system; I didn't get around to reading it until this year, the 40th anniversary.
48. Deception’s Pawn, Esther Friesner - The second part of Friesner's most recent Princesses of Myth duology, this time telling the story of Queen Maeve as a child/teen/young adult.
