maribouOverclocked, by Cory Doctorow
I really like this guy's fiction. None of these stories bowled me over the way Someone Comes to Town, Someone Leaves Town does; still, no complaints, and I even enjoyed rereading the stories I'd already read fairly recently.
(48/250)
Y The Last Man: Cycles, by Brian Vaughan et al
This series continues to intrigue me, will be trying the next one in short order.
(49/250)
To the Nines, by Janet Evanovich
Funny, fluffy, still not tired of her.
(50/250)
Hunter of the Light, by Risa Aratyr
I was expecting a mediocre Celtic fantasy and instead I got a quite good Celtic fantasy - yay! Reminds me a bit of Hounds of the Morrigan even though the intended audience or imaginary reader or whomever is quite different.
(51/250)
Chronicles of Chrestomanci Vols 1 and 2: Charmed Life, The Lives of Christopher Chant; The Witches of Caprona, Witch Week, by Diana Wynne Jones
What fun these were! I absolutely loved them which means DWJ is now 5/5 with me. Must read more of her books.
(52/250, 53/250)
Raphael, by R. A. MacAvoy
This is the sort of thing that I wouldn't like all that much if someone other than R. A. MacAvoy had written it (shades of Marion Zimmer Bradley in her Lysande mode, of which I was never all that fond). But because R. A. MacAvoy has such a wonderful voice, and because of all the odd little bits that I won't spoil for you, I liked it quite a lot, instead. Hurrah!
