Reading Thursday
Apr. 18th, 2013 12:59 pmWhat did you just finish reading?
Seanan McGuire's Midnight Blue-Light Special. The InCryptid series hits its stride with this book. More than the first installment, this one really intrigued me with the larger saga of the Healy / Price families.
What are you reading now?
Back to reading the Assia biography. The section on World War II-era Israel fascinated me even aside from the Assia angle.
Love in Maine by "Connie Falconeri." I'm curious as to how this novel ended up being turned into a GH tie-in. (There was a storyline on the show in which teenage Molly wrote the book, Connie stole it and added the sex, but eventually, at the book party, she admitted Molly wrote it.) Aside from that angle, it's a fairly engaging romance novel.
A Simple Revolution: The Making of an Activist Poet by Judy Grahn. I was tremendously excited to learn that Grahn, one of my favorite poets, had published a memoir. The book suffers from the Start in the Middle of Something Really Exciting--and Now Let's Talk About My Childhood syndrome...so I'm a bit bogged down at the moment, but I'm sure I'll love it when it gets going.
What do you expect to read next?
Still want to get to Marge Piercy's Sex Wars. Also, I want to reread Scott Miller's Music: What Happened? (which I've read in blog but not book form).
