FF: A Little Less
Kel Fell Over and Went Thud
Life was a little less fraught this week, so I did a lot of writing. But I did read, too, and it was good for the soul.
For those of you just discovering this part of my blog, the Friday Fragments lists what I’ve read over the past week. Most of the time I don’t include details of either short fiction (unless part of a book-length collection) or magazines.
The Fragments are not meant to be a recommendation list. If you’re interested in a not-at-all-inclusive recommendation list, you can look on my website under Neat Stuff.
Once again, this is not a book review column. It’s just a list with, maybe, a bit of description or a few opinions tossed in.
Recently Completed:
Snuff by Terry Pratchett. Re-read. I think I read this when it came out, and haven’t since, so it’s almost like a “new” book. Sam Vimes may be my favorite Discworld character.
In Progress:
Thud by Terry Pratchett. Re-read. I had forgotten just how brilliant this one is.
Our Oriental Heritage: The Story of Civilization by Will Durant. Audiobook. Now into China.
Also:
I’m plowing through the Nebula nominated works. Yeah. Some people do vote for friends or for a cause, but some of us actually read the works and try to vote with the works only in mind.
I won’t necessarily list all of this reading because if something doesn’t grab me, I won’t finish it.
