starladyWhat I'm reading
I haven't the foggiest. No, I started reading The Girl Who Soared Over Fairyland and Split the Moon in Two while I was bleaching my hair last week, so I'm definitely still reading that.
What I've just read
Technically this is a week and a half ago, but whatever: I took a three-hour vidding break to devour Kristin Cashore's Fire last Saturday night, and then I stayed up until 3am devouring Bitterblue. Fire is amazing and Bitterblue is stunning. A lot of people have told me that the book needed another round of editing, and I've seen a lot of reviews that say that nothing really happens in the book. I couldn't disagree more on both counts, and while I don't think it's perfect, I do think Bitterblue is an impressive achievement and that Cashore is clearly a phenomenally talented writer.
What I'll read next
Well, since I am going to finish my Yuletide story on the plane tomorrow, come hell or high water (one of these is significantly more likely than the other, given that I will be changing planes in Vegas), who knows really, but I do have the last volume of Mary Gentle's The Secret History, Lost Burgundy, to keep me occupied, as I want to finish the quartet before the end of the year.
