kitewithfishWhat I’ve Read:
Thornhedge by T. Kingfisher – A re-telling of Sleeping Beauty with a slightly horrorish edge. Very good!
What I’m Reading: Children of Time (Xing book club) – 40% - The uplifted spiders have developed chemical warfare. This is just barely a spoiler for this book.
Soulstar - CL Polk – 22% - Picking it up again from a different mindset. I think that I misjudged the age of one of the side characters who is now our narrator – she’s not college aged after all.
The Power Broker: Robert Moses and the Fall of New York– Robert Caro – about 28% - Catching up to the podcast! The audiobook is helping a good deal. The 99% Invisible podcast has special episodes on the chapters along this schedule, which I am trying to keep up with:
