books read - summer stuff
Simon was sick last night and we had a trip to URgent Care. bad reaction to antibiotics. better now.
have been skimming books, summer style:
Started and finished this during our 4 hour wait last night:
She Walks these Hills - sharyn McCrumb - got via bookmooch.com - based on a story of a girl captured by injuns = did what it needed to do while sitting in an uncomfortable plastic chair.
the Wheel of Darkness - Preston Chils and Douglas Preston - got this at Goodwill. another in the series about Agent Pendergrast and despite the Buddhist bent, was disappointed. Normally LOVE this series.
Finally
Salon Fantastique - edited by Ellen Datlow and Terri Windling. Loved this collection of fantasy tales. pretty much love anything written or edited by these two. Especially worth mentioning, La Fee Verte by Delia Sherman - need to find more by this writer.
Now my friend Susan passed on to me 'Angels Game' by writer of Shadow of the Wind. Is simply breathtaking. Barcelona is alive for me in these pages... enjoying every sentence and trying to linger..
