The start of the coolest witch in Discworld

January 5, 2014 by MyySharona 2 Comments

I only started reading the Discworld series a few years ago. I was up late at night, trying to think of things to buy for my new Kindle, and faced with the problem I always have when shopping for entertainment: What in the hell am I supposed to buy? All ideas tend to run from me in that situation, … [Read more]

Jules Verne the Man Who Invented the Future

January 5, 2014 by kagidab 1 Comment

This book is a biography of Jules Verne from the '60s that has been lying around the house. It was impossible to resist such a hyperbolic title, additionally the blurb claimed "he saw into the future". Naturally I was disappointed when Jules Verne never demonstrated actual clairvoyance. I've only … [Read more]

A May December Romance That Doesn’t Make Me Gag

January 5, 2014 by Sophia 4 Comments

My plan was to start 2014 off with a nice, important classic: namely, Walden by Thoreau. But then, What I Did for a Duke (2011) by Julie Anne Long became available at my library. Probably no one will be surprised when they hear that I am finished with What I Did for a Duke and only about ten percent … [Read more]

Hyperbole and a Half

January 5, 2014 by Walking Widdershins 2 Comments

I got this and Yes, Chef from my Cannonball book elf, Jeena Livance Lim. Can't even tell you how excited I was when I opened the box.

    Oh,what? How cool! Seems like there were just little pockets of Frenchness in this Anglo-Indian world. Who knew.
