	Nat, I was have a feeling of deja vu as well, so I think we definitely had this Anne of Green Gables conversation before. -----signature----- "Can I just run by my battle cry?"

	For BookShare I'm editing White is for Magic by Laurie Stolarz, which is good so far. It's the second book in a series and I haven't read the first one, but it's still a decent book. YA fantasy. I'm not very far into it, though. For Uni, I'm reading The Narratives of Captivity and Restoration by Mary Rowlandson. It's actually pretty interesting. She gets kidnapped by Indians and spends several months with them. It's the basis for Westerns, as a genre, and it's a true story. -----signature----- Jen, High Scholar and Ponderer of all Things Verily Blue, and Official caller of Suz, Crusader of Heretics and Knight of the Blue 1000 Now sacrificing Movie Garfield

	Meg Cabot: Queen of Babble 3: Queen of Babble Gets Hitched. Decent so far. It's an audio book I'm listening to and the voice is a bit weird, but I like it. -----signature----- Jen, High Scholar and Ponderer of all Things Verily Blue, and Official caller of Suz, Crusader of Heretics and Knight of the Blue 1000 Now sacrificing Movie Garfield

I want to reread my Dune boks, but my copies are at home. sigh It's always so frustrating when I don't have all of my stuff at school and go, "Oh, right, that thing I want is three hours away." -----signature----- "Can I just run by my battle cry?"

Grew up with D'Aulaire's book of Greek myths. Man, our copy is so old - the front cover is falling off. I wonder if we could start a Greek Mythology thread here... -----signature----- Crucified, laid behind a stone, You lived to die, rejected and alone, Like a Rose, trampled on the ground, You took the Fall and thought of me...

	Slightly OT: but have you guys watched Valentine? It's a new TV series that started a couple of weeks ago and involves Greek gods. To make this on topic: I just finished A Child called 'It'. Powerful book, but I don't recommend it to anyone who has a history of abuse, unless you want to spend several hours after reading it feeling like crap. -----signature----- Jen, High Scholar and Ponderer of all Things Verily Blue, and Official caller of Suz, Crusader of Heretics and Knight of the Blue 1000 Now sacrificing Movie Garfield

	Yes, I've seen the first episode of Valentine. Not impressed, I have to say. But this is probably a topic for another thread. -----signature----- Crucified, laid behind a stone, You lived to die, rejected and alone, Like a Rose, trampled on the ground, You took the Fall and thought of me...

	Recently read Isaac Asimov's Halloween edited by Gardner Dozois and Sheila Williams. There is a great Nordic ghost story in it that takes place in primative Iceland and reads like an ancient saga. Also I read The Wild Hunt: Vengence Moon by Jocelin Foxe. Go here for details: and it's sequel, The Wild Hunt: Child of Fire by Jocelin Foxe Details here. Great believeable world is created there. Jocelyn Foxe is actually two women into The Society For Creative Anacronisms. Website is: here Also read The Devil of Aske by Pamela Hill, but that is more historical romance, taking place during the Jacobite rebellion. I find most of my books for free at the grab one, share one rack at Lord Fairfax Community College's library in Winchester, VA where I go for the Shenandoah Astronomical Society meeting or on the dollar racks at Dollar General. Am curious if anyone else read these books? -----signature----- "We are not saints, but seekers", Obi Wan quoting Jedi wisdom in THE DARK RIVAL, J.A. # 2.

	I'm currently reading through David B. Coe's Winds of the Forelands series. I've finished the first two, Rules of Ascension and Seeds of Betrayal. Now I'm reading the third book, Bonds of Vengeance. Pretty good so far.

	Welcome to SFFBC, Isbeth! I can't say I've read of (or actually heard of) those books, but I'll look into them I got the new Sharon Shinn book today!! Which means a reread of the previous for in her Twelve Houses series, which suits me just fine -----signature----- "Not till the moon falls. Not till the world ends."
