I love me some Speculative Fiction. Since I last posted about it, I’ve added at least 5 books from the NPR list to my have-read or am-reading lists. I expect to finish Slaughterhouse-Five (#19) on my commute home tonight, and then I will finish a re-read of Hitchhiker’s Guide (#2) and finish up Watchmen (#15). That’ll
I’m struggling to pick the next book for our Speculative Fiction book club. It’s my turn again, and I’ve got so many I want to read. I considered Abraham Lincoln, Vampire Hunter, but found it wanting. I originally thought about Watchmen, but it is really disturbing, enjoyable, but disturbing. I ruled out Slaughterhouse-Five for language. I’m playing with the idea of Cormac McCarthey’s The Road (#63).
But how can I leave out?
– Ready, Player One!
– The Warded Man
– Cold Magic
– Elantris
and tons of other books that I would love to read and discuss?
In other news, I’m going to be very indecisive until Thursday.
