I have been toying around with the idea of joining the GLBT reading challenge next year, but hadn't really made any sort of committment. Then, I was reading Eva's list and discovered that I owned several of those books! I read several GLBT books this year just for fun, so I don't think I will have any trouble with the challenge. A couple of the books I am reading right now could count for the challenge,...

He wanted to tell him that everything would be ok -- something that Shadow did not feel, but that he knew had to be said. There were men in black trains out there. There was a fat kid in a stretch limo and there were people in the television who did not mean them well. -- Neil Gaiman --

Odd and the Frost Giants, a hardcover novella written by Neil Gaiman, with illustrations by Brett Helquist, and recently published by Harper is a delightful book now in my home library.

Thicker than I should be, difficult to read and boring when you do and, finally, seen as being more intelligent than I actually am... But, that's not the point of this. Six to eight weeks ago I decided to read every Terry...

It promised loose laughs and even looser sci-fi concepts, yet somehow managed to morph into an affecting ode to fractured friendships and surrogate families. The plot -- as it was initially pitched -- was simple. Well, sorta. Fast-talking killer-for-hire...

Gene Wolfe's vast tome sets many puzzles for the reader, not the least of which is why on earth it isn't better known First, a confession or two. I know I was meant to read Tim Powers's The Anubis Gates next , but Gene Wolfe arrived first in the post and so I got stuck in; by the time poor old Tim arrived a few days later, I couldn't be prised away. In my ignorance I hadn't realised The Book of the...
