what I've been reading
Feb. 13th, 2009 08:42 amUpLink by Jane S. Fancher: I love Fancher's books and I'm so disappointed that she can't seem to find a publisher now. I love the angst and her gay, bi, and genderbending characters.
Wanderlust by Ann Aguirre: I liked this even better than Grimspace, even though romantic SF is my favorite sub-genre and this one had a lot less romance. I love all of Aguirre's characters, but Vel is my favorite. And while I got flashes of such films as Aliens while reading, I still loved this.
The Sharing Knife: Horizon by Lois McMaster Bujold: I don't know how it happened but Lois has snuck in as my co-favorite author, along with Clive Barker. I love pretty much everything she's ever written and all of the things I read her books for are present here too. Bujold is one of a very few authors I've read who really understand disability and write about it with sensitivity. I thought this was the perfect ending to the series, but I wouldn't mind more books set in the Wide Green World.
I also attempted to read Deirdre Martin's hockey romance series, but I had major issues with it right from the first book and they only got worse from there. I'm just not meant to read romance books.
