and
Points of Impact by Marko Kloos -- I am addicted to this series; stopped another book to start this one. (The price is good: $4.99 for the ebook and another $1.99 for the audio version!)

1984

Now reading The First Fifteen Lives of Harry August by Claire North.

I really like this series! (Apart from book 2, which didn't work.) I think the author does a great job at avoiding the usual YA stereotypes, and has a world that is a lot deeper than it first appears.

A World To Win by Upton Sinclair
Space Opera by Catherynne M. Valente
Life on a Young Planet: The First Three Billion Years of Evolution on Earth by Andrew H. Knoll
Heh -- four books at once. Perhaps I am reverting to a pattern from the past. When I was in my teens and early twenties, I regularly had as many as six books that I was actively reading. (Nowadays as an old fart I mostly have just two going -- one ebook and one audio book.)


What did you think of A Heritage of Stars, Clyde? I tend to enjoy Simak, but he is all over the place for me in terms of style and subject. Which is to say, I always feel like I know what I'm getting into with a new-to-me Heinlein or Asimov, but with Simak, it can be a whole new world.

Well Sheryl, I pretty much agree with you about Simak. You never know quite what you are going to get with him. I am about 60% through A Heritage of Stars and I am getting this weird Samual R. Delaney kind of feel. (I'll try to remember to post back here when I finish.)

Now reading Odysseus Ascendant by Evan Currie, and (non-genre) Blood Trail by C.J. Box.

Reading The Goose Girl by Shannon Hale.
