Oh hey, I'm actually reading something for once! Slowly reading Consort of Fire by Kit Rocha, because it was languishing on my tablet and activation energy was easier to read something on my tablet than to get up and grab the books I have out from the library. :p I'm finding the characters intriguing, though I'm having some issues with who is the "viewpoint" character - they seem to switch a lot? so I think it's actually one person but then find out the paragraph is from another person's viewpoint? I'm pretty sure these are indie published books, but I've read other indie published books that were PERFECT (looking at your books, Courtney Milan) so I can't really blame it on that, but still, it leaves me wondering if the writing would have been tighter had the book had a traditional editor. Still, it's fun! And the world building is interesting! And I'm wondering just who is going to end up in bed with who (voting for a polycule myself right now).
In other book news, the recently created all_worlds_of_mccaffrey inspired me to borrow a McCaffrey book from the library; I've never read one. Hoping to read that, too.
