Books Read, January and February
Books I’ve been a little stressed, so you can see my romance novel consumption increasing proportionately. Silence of the Grave by Arnaldur Indridason Zoe Archer Blades of the Rose series – I bought the bundled kindle edition of these books! A series of four romantic fantasy books for 10 dollars was a pretty good value, [...]
2010 Year in Reading
So this year after tallying up my reading list posts, it looks like I read around 59 books and 215 manga. This is fewer books and manga than last year, but not off enough to make me worry about it all that much. I figure if I am reading over 52 books a year, that’s [...]

Books Fool’s Girl by Celia Rees Blameless by Gail Carriger – This was a bit of a letdown when compared to the other two books in the series, partly because Carriger was using a particular stock plot from the romance novel that I find particularly annoying. Royal Flush by Rhys Bowen Rampant by Diana Peterfreund [...]
Free Vorkosigan Saga ebooks at Baen.com

The Fool’s Girl by Celia Rees
I read a YA book every month for my YA book group, and I didn’t care for this month’s selection at all. The Fool’s Girl tells the story behind the play Twelfth Night, focusing on the daughter (Violetta) and son (Stephano) of the couples in the play. Normally, I’d expect to enjoy this book, but [...]
