I've been doing disturbingly little offline reading in the last year. I could go on listing the various emotional and physical deterrents I could blame this on, but honestly? Who cares, in the long run. Instead, I'm working on rediscovering all the things I've always loved - and still love - about books.

Here's where you all come in. Give me recommendations. Books you thought were great. Books you think I'd enjoy. Books I just plain desperately need to read. Have at!

For the record, these are the books I've read so far in 2007:


1. Smoke and Shadows, by Tanya Huff
2. Smoke and Mirrors, by Tanya Huff
3. Managra, by Stephen Marley
4. Blood Price, by Tanya Huff
5. American Gods (re-read), by Neil Gaiman
6. Kushiel's Dart, by Jacqueline Carey
7. Kushiel's Chosen, by Jacqueline Carey
8. The Gentle Art of Verbal Self-Defense, by Suzette Haden Elgin
9. Kushiel's Avatar, by Jacqueline Carey
10. Kushiel's Scion, by Jacqueline Carey
11. Luck in the Shadows (re-read), by Lynn Flewelling


Currently reading Shards of Honor, by Lois McMaster Bujold. It comes in an omnibus with Barayar, so that's most likely up next.

War for the Oaks, Emma Bull

The Sharing Knife, Bujold - two volumes, second one is out this summer. Legacy and Beguilement. Very good, and not Vorkosiverse

Hell, just read anything with Bujold's name on it. You can't go wrong with her.

Earth, David Brin

Spin, Robert Charles Wilson

I'm noticing a definite pattern. *g*

Thank you!
