Book Habit

No, I don't mean Ron Glass in drag. That would be Very Odd Indeed.

So, yesterday: Finished Neverwhere and read most of Mister Monday. Today saw Grim Tuesday done by lunchtime, and I've managed to slow myself down enough that I'm only halfway through Drowned Wednesday.

I shall call them the Days of the Reluctant Heroes, both of whom would've been quite comfortable to sit it all out with a lovely cup of tea.

Here are my very short non-spoilery commentaries at the moment:

Neverwhere: Inventive, imaginative, dark and amusing. I rather liked it, but that name - Mayhew - seems just a little too hint-like in hindsight.

Keys to the Kingdom: Lovely, inventive, beautifully written, and wonderfully brilliant. A refreshing twist on the ordinary and on conventions of genre, especially the way that Garth plays on seven-item lists.

Oooh... shiny. Inventive and a half, he is.

And if you're going to spam links like that, I don't care where you do it.

After I spammed it here, I decided to spam it to my own LJ, which rendered this rather redundant.

But duly noted.
