I have the same. Aeryn Send a noteboard - 06/10/2011 01:45:58 PM
Like a writing block, just at the other end.

I'm bored with the books on our shelf, I don't want to read anything overly serious, but I want to try something new. Something that will tickle my fancy as much as Gail Carriger did.

Any ideas? I don't want anything that ends badly. Or anything with horrible stuff. I want something light and happy and charming.

Help me, Rafonauts. You're my only hope.*

*This actually isn't true. I've got loads of other people I can bother.


My brain candy books are Catherine Asaro. No, not brain candy. Brain chocolate.

There is actually a book called that: Reader's Block. But it is not fun and simple. Camilla - 04/10/2011 07:05:14 PM 852 Views
I expect not. Rebekah - 10/10/2011 06:44:02 PM 970 Views

Wilde, Pratchett or something similarly humourous and witty usually helps me at that point. *NM* Stephen - 05/10/2011 06:20:28 PM 392 Views
