While I'm not in Fantasyland to start the month, I'll be returning sometime this month but while I'm sojourning in a previous historical era where are you?

I quite enjoyed Sabriel last month so I've decided to stay in the Old Kingdom and started Lireal as the next audio book for my commute.

Finished The Giver by Lois Lowry. Also, saw the movie which is a bit more Hollywood than the book.

Still working on my Robin McKinley binge read. Finished Sunshine, which I really enjoyed, and started The Hero and the Crown.

Now I'm headed to the UK with Stiletto. So excited! The Rook was my favorite book from last year's reading.

I had an ultimately disappointing journey with the Truthwitch and am now following a Geist.

I am rereading the Harry Potter series. I am in the great hall watching the Goblet of Fire with Harry Potter, Herminone Granger and Ron Weasley.

The Geist was not so good as I'd hoped but I've very much enjoyed A study in darkness.

I just spent the weekend in the World Of Two Moons, enjoying a long overdue re-read of Elfquest graphic novels.

Just arriving in Arbonne for a reread of an old Guy Gavriel Kay favorite.

I should probably be reading one of the two not-yet-read works of his that are also on my TBR pile, but this was the one that called out to me when I was staring at the shelves. :)

Headed to Lancre on the Disc in Carpe Jugulum, it almost sounds like I'm going to be reading about vampires. But vampires wouldn't be stupid enough to attack somewhere that Granny Weatherwax lives would they?

Just finished The Borders of Life by G.A. Kathryns. She announces in a preface that she's inspired by Faulkner; her ambitions exceed her reach. The small-town part is good in a minor Southern-Gothic way; the "other side" part, not so much so. And it ends abruptly and obscurely, as though she ran out of steam & just wanted to get out.

Just finishing Snape: A Definitive Reading by Lorrie Kim. Not a fantasy, itself, but an analysis of the J. R. Rowling character through all of the Harry Potter series. Kim's reading is insightful as she picks up on patterns of behavior in all of the characters which illuminate Snape's actions and motivations. When I finish with Kim's book, I'm going to have to go back and reread Rowling's entire series!

I'm in Romania, seeking vampires with Harry Keough in the Necroscope series. Damn this is a great series! On volume 4 now and volume 5 is on deck.

I finished Guards! Guards! just as July ended. What a hoot! I'll have to pay another visit to the Discworld soon.
