Books! I read them.

[effex]

Seems like everybody is posting about books these days - what they're reading, what they're buying, what they're throwing against the wall in fits of rage - and that is totally a bandwagon I want to jump on.

I figure a 'what I read/am reading' this week is the best way for me to go so, here, the books I read/am reading this week (actually this month so far, as we're a bit more then a week into it):

Currently Reading:

Un Lun Dun by China Meville
The Corinthian by Georgette Heyer
Skeen's Search by Jo Clayton
The Gift of Fear by Gavin De Becker
Runaways, Vols 1-3
Geography Club by Brent Hartinger
The Homeward Bounders by Diana Wynne Jones

Yes, I have a weird attention span when it comes to books - if it grabs me, I'll sit and read it in one go (oft into the wee hours of the morning) but if it only sorta grabs me I'll often set it aside, forget I was reading it, and pick up something else. Good times!


Finished Reading:

Young Avengers, Vol 1
Soon I Will Be Invincible by Austin Grossman
Skeen's Search by Jo Clayton
Fire Logic by Laurie J. Marks

This does not include any manga or single comics, which I go through like cupcakes. Or fanfiction, which I go through like crack.


To Read Pile:

The Homeward Bounders by Diana Wynne Jones
Cunt by Inga Muscio
Around the Bloc by Stephanie Elizondo Griest
Fledgling by Octavia Butler

There are many, *many* more, but these are at the top of the list.


I will maybe post reviews later, but first I *have* to finish my Runaways overview for crack_van [wishes self good luck with that].
