Best this month were Emily Tesh’s Some Desperate Glory (queer space opera YA with a great character arc) and Matt Dinniman’s latest in the Dungeon Crawler Carl sequence, The Eye of the Bedlam Bride, a series which continues to be my most favourite ongoing series (that isn't manga) while being incredibly hard to convince people to read.

I would comment about the aftershocks settling down, but every time I do so to anyone outside the area we have another bad patch. Last night there were three in quick succession - the strongest was only 4.1, but they were all shallow and close, with one of them about 8km below my house. Anyway. I've reshelved half my books (avoiding the upper shelves), filed my claim with the EQC (minor - hopefully - cracks in the house, and the pavement/tiles around it sinking by 5cm) and am reluctantly getting used to the loss of various local shops and buildings.

And finishing the occasional book. All animals, this batch.

Beswitched, Kate Saunders. )

The vet’s family, Martha Robinson (re-read). )

Nobody’s horse, Jane Smiley. )

To Ride Pegasus, Anne McCaffrey (re-read). )

The other thing I keep forgetting to mention is that I'm now posting on dreamwidth as [personal profile] cyphomandra, and cross-posting to livejournal. I will eventually get round to providing a footer on entries saying this and making it a bit more formal - I've been cross-posting for a while, but recent events on lj have made me less keen on supporting it. If anyone wants a dreamwidth code, let me know; I also have an AO3 code for any interested parties.
