I was completely free of the Book-A-Day shackles this month for the first time since January 2010, which meant that 1) I only read a few books this month, but didn't hop around to finish up short books all the time and 2) that there's a stack on top of my printer, waiting for me to write about them. I still expect these posts to come, so excuse the lack of links....
- Connie Willis, All Clear (3/1)
- Joe Daly, Dungeon Quest, Book Two (3/1)
Look for my review in the April issue of the unkillable Realms of Fantasy
- Ben Goldacre, Bad Science (3/3)
- Masashi Kishimoto, Naruto, Vol. 48 (3/6)
- R. Crumb, The Book of Mr. Natural (3/6)
- Barry Deutsch, Hereville (3/7)
- Mary Robinette Kowal, Shades of Milk and Honey (3/8)
- Jo Walton, Among Others (3/14)
- P.J. O'Rourke, Don't Vote: It Just Encourages the Bastards (3/16)
- Kurt Andersen, Graydon Carter, & George Kalogerakis, Spy: The Funny Years (3/20)
- Patrick Rothfus, The Wise Man's Fear (3/29)
- Sarah Vowell, Unfamiliar Fishes (3/31)
And that's that. Looking at what I said last month that I wanted to read,
Tiassa
and
Home Fires
and
One of Our Thursdays Is Missing
are still on the unread stack, and have been joined by
Fuzzy Nation
and
7th Sigma
. But I did get through
The Wise Man's Fear
, which I wasn't expecting to jump into so quickly, and that sucker is
big. This was also mostly a library month, with
Bad Science,
Unfamiliar Fishes,
Shades of Milk and Honey, and the big fat Rothfuss brick all coming in shiny plastic covers -- I find that library books always shove their way up to the top of the unread stack by virtue of the deadline, so getting library books is an admission that you'll read them before other things.
