Cara at Oooh… Books! was kind enough to invite me to do a guest post on her blog, expanding on my review of the October Daye series by Seanan McGuire.
A little snooping around her archives and I discovered that we have the similar taste in books! Here’s a few reviews that caught my interest:
- The Yiddish Policemen’s Union by Michael Chabon is an old favorite, and one of the first books reviewed on BookSexy. It’s always interesting to hear someone else’s opinion.
- The Physick Book of Deliverance Dane by Katherine Howe is a book that received a lot of buzz when it was published- though I think I’ll wait for the paperback.
- Unseen Academicals by Terry Pratchett – Here’s an author I’m ashamed to say I’ve never read. Can you imagine???! Never Read! He’s British and has published a gazillion books – I don’t know how I’ve missed him for so long.
How can you be friends with Leaf and not have been initiated into the world of Terry Pratchett? I thought the Discworld was a pre-requisite…or maybe that’s just a family requirement. Can’t wait to see what you make of him.

I guess I was sooo special I got to zip past all those pre-qualification tests to the front of the line… in hindsight, it’s really quite amazing that two people with such orthogonal reading habits have remained lifelong friends, don’t you think?
Mr. Pratchett will be waiting until next month, unfortunately. This next week is all about finishing Wolf Hall.
