Just books. (Maybe.)

Too tired to do this! Kept messing up the img tag....

Anyway, finished John M. Ford's The Last Hot Time last night, and it was great. I found bits a tiny bit tedious (Doc's sexual worries especially), and - here I go again - didn't like the female romanctic lead at all as much as a lot of the other characters, but I still really enjoyed it, and think it would well reward a reread. Don't know what it is about John M. Ford, but I always find I've to read him extra-slow to understand what's going on! The set-up was wonderful, and reminded me a lot of the Borderlands books. Elves and Faerie done as the opposite of mistily romantic, but not just the opposite in black-and-white heartless/cruel either. Great stuff.

Now started on The Alienist, which I'm using to restart a ring, for which I was up next. I'm going to leave it at that, as the next step would be to greedy ring/ray stallers and book hoarders and I'm trying to avoid that here. And now. Oh, and hypocritical criticisers of anyone who dares to speak up about such behaviour. Right. Avoid. I'll just take myself off to start kneading dough for pizza, which might get rid of some of this irritation!
