Can't believe it's been 7 months. Yikes!
But luckily, the book readin' continues, and I've got some fun reviews all set to share!
Unfortunately, (or fortunately) I'm fat in the middle of another new book project right now; one with some rather insane deadlines. So it may be a few weeks still.
But rest assured -- these two goals I vow:
1) I'll get 2011's books all posted before the end of the year. I've not yet missed a book (I think) or a year since I started this thing, and this won't be the first. We're closing in on 10 years before too long -- wanna make sure they're good!
2) I'll get the broken index on the side fixed, so the links to reviews actually work right.
In the meantime, as a teaser, some of the interesting stuff I've read and need to post about:
City of Thieves
The Kraken
Where There is No Doctor
Brief Interviews with Hideous Men (again)
Full Dark, No Stars
The Last Days of Ptolemy Grey
The Monk and the Riddle
A Wise Man's Fear
Horns
Caught
The Windup Girl
Elegy for April
Little Brother
The Devotions of Suspect X
The Spy Who Came in From the Cold
Rogue Island
But for now... Work needs my attention, and The Professor is telling me it's bed time, and I still owe my publisher another 15k words in about a week, so...
Until later,

Ahh, what an interesting week!
The Senator and KMK stayed with us for the week, as their house had no power. The game continued, shuddering towards the finish line with as much grace as a drunken linebacker. I spent a little time reading, a little time writing...
And now, as of this fine Sunday morning, I'm ALMOST all caught up from the summer's reading. Without further ado...

Wow! What a summer!
Houston, Honduras, Vancouver, Silicon Valley, Oxford, Napa, Austin... It just didn't stop!
The Professor accomplished all that she set out to; both law firms were excited by her, as one would expect.
I've nearly accomplished what I set out to. The games are all nearly in their respective boxes. It had been a while since I did a hard crunch like the last few months. Learned a lot, definitely advanced a level or two and picked up a few new feats.
Meantime, this week is (busy) but falling action on the games. The Senator and the esteemed KMK are here staying with us until their city has recovered from Ike's beating.
So many interesting times and good conversations with various people around the world in the last three months. And more than a few great new books read. At least one or two of them changed completely the way I think about things. Read on for more!
