FF: May I Read?

Cayenne and Cascabel Read

As May draws to a close, I’ve slowed down in my reading.  Temperatures are climbing, so I’m doing a lot in the yard before we hit the “unbearable” level.  I’m pausing to write this as a break from transplanting tomato plants.  Today’s weather is not precisely cool, but at least the sky is somewhat overcast.

And now for the usual reminder…  The Friday Fragments is not a book review column; it’s a list of what I’m reading and maybe a bit about my opinions.  I always read the Comments section, because I enjoy learning what other people are reading.  Oh, and I don’t usually list shorter works unless in a collection or articles.  I also don’t usually list my scattered research reading.

Completed:

The Adventures of Sherlock Holmes by Arthur Conan Doyle.  Audiobook, read by Stephen Fry.

Spirits in the Wire by Charles de Lint. 

In Progress:

The Memoirs of Sherlock Holmes. Audiobook, read by Stephen Fry.  Almost done.

The King of the Cats and Other Feline Fairy Tales, edited by John Richard Stephens.  This has been on my TBR shelf for quite a while.  Very repetitious, which is probably why I didn’t get very far into it.  We’ll see how it goes this time.

Also:

Still leafing through Jim’s alumni magazine from the University of Michigan.  The theme for this one seems to be ecological concerns, and is quite interesting.
