Mel, I haven't read the new short story. Do all the new editions have new stories? I keep forgetting those are out.
The engineering book sounds interesting.
Oh, fun, SA! I didn't know the Susannah books were a series. I hope you like it; please let me know what you think! I hope your sisters liked it too.
Sorry to hear that The Returning isn't holding your attention; I would probably skim too.
I haven't heard of Twisted Tales series before, mm1991. That does sound like an interesting twist with Belle's mother being the sorceress! I hope the story picks up a little.
Oooh, Beauty is fun, fk! It's been on my mental list to reread too, but it hasn't happened yet.
I'm still working on A Man Named Intrepid; there have been some fun stories so far. I finished The White Feather, which was pretty fun, and I also read Spin and Marty: Trouble at Triple-R Ranch which went in directions I wasn't expecting, but was still fun. I also started rereading Antigone - actually both translations I picked up. I'm glad I got two translations, because the first one I picked up feels much more modern.
The engineering book sounds interesting.
It mostly has to do with how some of the characters/subplots are written and how things unfold, etc. It just makes me think of the sort of stories you like. Perhaps needless to say, but I think this book will be showing up for you to read soon, unless you don't want to read it.Mel wrote:(I'm assuming this is a reflection of the more pleasant side of my reading tastes and no mountains were exploded on poor characters? )
