Corridor Girl; Court Firewing; Love Dies

OK, I'm actually up to about 130-some by now, but if I wait til my review catches up to my reading, the resulting post will probably have 40 books in it. So let's start with these.

White Corridor, by Christopher Fowler
The latest Bryant & May mystery. This series continues strongly; I was a bit disappointed that there wasn't a parallel historical flashback in this one, but not too disappointed because some things I'd been wanting to see develop developed. Still witty and lovable.

Y The Last Man 6: Girl on Girl, by Brian K Vaughan et al
I am perilously close to becoming a total Brian K. Vaughan fangirl. Enough said.

Firewing, by Kenneth Oppel
The only thing better than a good anthropomorphic YA fantasy is a good anthropomorphic YA fantasy with interesting theology bits. I am surprised to find out there is another book after this one, thought it was a trilogy.

Court Duel, by Sherwood Smith
A very satisfying conclusion to Meliara's story; in fact, it surpassed Crown Duel and was every bit as good as Shevraeth in Marloven Hess. Am so thrilled to have discovered this author's works.

Dies the Fire, by S. M. Stirling
Perfectly serviceable post-apocalyptic what-if novel. Very interesting working out of ideas with stronger characterization than say, the average non-stand-alone Turtledove. OK, it's no Earth Abides, but then what is? Anyway, I liked it, and I thought the heavy dose of Wicca thrown in was more about figuring out how religion would work in that particular situation than about working the Celtic fantasy angle or proselytizing. Much more about figuring out how religion would work, really. I'll concede it was a little hokey at times, but it's really hard to write any self-consciously religious character without any hoke, and the characters themselves were not ignorant of the occasional cheesiness. So. Was good story. Want rest.

Die for Love, by Elizabeth Peters
Fun and funny mystery set at a romance writer's convention, full of affectionate send-ups of the genre. I really like the cynical protagonist, Jacqueline Kirby.

Cat Between Tails

Cat, by Katharine Rogers
Short book summarizing what our imaginative relationship to cats has been over the millennia. Serviceable and nicely written example of the type. One thing that really intrigued me is that it's part of a series about all sorts of different animals - I'm probably going to read a bunch of them - Cockroach, anyone?

Urban Tails, by Sarah Neeley and Knox
Extremely cute feral cat pictures with accompanying explanatory text.

The Line Between, by Peter S. Beagle
Every story in this book was enchanting. And oddly enough, I liked A Dance for Emilia, the last one, much better than the first time I read it. Maybe I wasn't mellow enough last time.
