Gone to Earth
by Mary Webb
read in May, 2012
One of my absolute favorite novels; this is probably the fifth or sixth time I've read it straight through. Mary Webb was as much a literary nature mystic as D. H. Lawrence, but more on the domestic rather than smutty side and without that constant o...more

Whiskey Sour by J.A. Konrath
Whiskey Sour (Jack Daniels Mystery, #1)
by J.A. Konrath (Goodreads Author)
read in June, 2012
Quite enjoyed this one, more for the deft characterization and salty dialogue rather than the plot. I'd been following Konrath's online discussions about indie e-publishing, decided to try one of his novels, and was relieved to find that he's as good...more

“That's what you get,' he said, nodding towards a group of the men engaged in some close-order military drill, 'when you give people Bibles and guns. You should give 'em either one or the other, but not both. It just messes up their brains.”
K.W. Jeter

“What is the future going to be like, then?'

'Hey, it's gonna be a gas,' Scape assured me. 'If you're into machines and stuff - like I am - you'd go for it. People are gonna have all kinds of shit. Do whatever they want with it. That's why it didn't faze me when ol' Bendray first told me about wanting to blow up the world. Hey - in the Future, everybody will want to!”
K.W. Jeter, Infernal Devices

“And if I were to open you up - would you see anything less remarkable? Less intricately dazzling, in its squelching, spongy way? Lungs and heart and spleen, and all the rest - ticking away, as it were? Yet you walk down the boulevard, and pass any number of such wonderful devices, all ticking away as they walk, and think it no great marvel.”
K.W. Jeter, Infernal Devices

K.W. Jeter The Kim Oh books are my latest. They're actually somewhat funny, in a twisted way. If you get a chance to read one, hope you enjoy it!
