The Girl Who Kicked the Hornet's Nest. j-whitt987 Send a noteboard - 02/09/2012 04:00:13 AM
Not right in this second, of course, but what's your current book?

I'm reading a murder mystery by Tami Hoag (Deeper than the Dead. I've not read any of her books before, but thanks to the wonders of the public library I get to be adventurous. I like it so far.

Sorry I've been a little absent of late. My brain had gone into hibernation for awhile. My parents have been visiting, and they head off to the Continent on Monday, so I hope to have a review or two for you in the next couple of weeks. One of those will be about the new Scarlett Thomas book, Monkeys with Typewriters. It's a nonfiction book about creative writing and how to read and write it better. Should be interesting. The release date is 13 September.


Been an interesting series so far. Quite different from my usual reading choices.

Spock: I find that remark…insulting.

The Crippled God. So far I'm more excited about it than I've been about any Erikson in a while. Legolas - 01/09/2012 11:51:39 PM 1186 Views
Well, that was fun. Most fun I've had with Erikson since, hm, MT at least. Possibly even MoI. Legolas - 05/09/2012 11:08:26 PM 1114 Views
