Reading Wednesday

Last seen in boxofdelights' journal.

What are you currently reading?

Ebook on my iPad: Captain Vorpatril's Alliance, Lois McMaster Bujold

Paper book on my nightstand: The Other Log of Phileas Fogg, Philip José Farmer

Just started those two so can't say a lot about them.

Audiobook: The New Moon's Arms, Nalo Hopkinson. I really like the protagonist; she's middle-aged and has a wonderfully complex personality. The narrator, Gin Hammond, is superb. I think I've figured out the plot twist. We'll see.

Ebook on my smart phone: The Big Meow, Diana Duane. This is the 3d Cat Wizards book, the one she self-published in installments.

What did you recently finish reading?

The Norse Myths, Kevin Crossley-Holland. It kept my interest with lots of chewy end notes. But I found his myth-writing style a little offputting. Anyway, now I'll be able to watch the Marvelverse movies with a little more background knowledge. :)

The Hobbit, JRR Tolkien. Re-read because I just saw the movie.

Vampire Cabbie, Fred Schepartz. Picked it up because I liked him on a panel at Wiscon. I didn't care for it overall, but I liked the details about cab-driving.

What do you think you’ll read next?

I almost never know what I'll pick until the time comes, but I have Octavia Butler's Lilith's Brood on my nightstand.
