Black Helicopters by Blythe Woolston
Thoraiya is on page 66 of 442 of City of Bones: So far, so predictable. Hot supernatural boyz. Girls who slap. Bitchy pretty girls. Sad loser from Team Human. Of course, now I have to read to the end, because if my predictions don't come true then it's not actually predictable, right?

I was going to wait until these were all out before I started reading them. PATIENCEFAIL.

"I had all kinds of witty an intelligent things to post around lunchtime. My classes provided me with them, both last night and this morning. The rather curious weather, however, drove them from my mind. It's a shame, for this morning's class, in p..." Read more of this blog post »
Sister Mine by Nalo Hopkinson
" To me, not much can be negative in a book that features Jimi Hendrix's guitar as the male character Lars, boyfriend to one of the twins in this masterful mythological work. With the exception of the mention (not an actual description) of incestuou... " Read more of this review »

Sister Mine by Nalo Hopkinson
This book was beautifully written, with wonderful mythology to be explored, but I think a rock music afficionado would get more from the subject matter than me.

“There was dog shit on her shoe.”
Thoraiya Dyer, Sprawl

“Rising up into the air, they took to the sky and flew. From west and beyond west, into the wind and through it, they came past countless moons and suns. One laughed and briefly wore a scarf of raindrops in her hair, and then with wicked feet she kicked a cloud and caused rain to swamp a boat.”
Pat O'Shea, The Hounds of the Morrigan

“I like the truth, even when it does trouble me.”
Juliet Marillier, Wildwood Dancing

“He gripped it and the sky began to spin; and Pidge knew that if he didn't put it right, the country would somehow obey the signpost and twist around and that, even though he was directly headed for Shancreg and home, he would end up in Kyledove.”
Pat O'Shea, The Hounds of the Morrigan

“There was dog shit on her shoe.”
Thoraiya Dyer, Sprawl

“One day I would have all the books in the world, shelves and shelves of them. I would live my life in a tower of books. I would read all day long and eat peaches. And if any young knights in armor dared to come calling on their white chargers and plead with me to let down my hair, I would pelt them with peach pits until they went home.”
Jacqueline Kelly, The Evolution of Calpurnia Tate
