Reading books!

I've spent the week reading actual novels, which is unusual since I met fandom. At the moment I have my copy of The Demon's Lexicon (at last!) and am 60 pages in. I am not sure if it is the fault of me or the author spending too much time with slash goggles on, but the brothers' relationship is oddly romantic. Enjoying it so far, though.

Hope to finish this tomorrow so that I can then wrap up the rest of the Sookie Stackhouse novels (tosh, but highly entertaining tosh and with some snappy bits of writing) and my new Frances Hardinge this week (Oh, how I love her ...). One thing that I have noticed is how much more physically enjoyable it is reading a book to looking at a screen; everything from light to line length is just easier on the eyes. I may need to put the printer to more use for my fandom reading.

In cheery news, HAPPY BIRTHDAY to complications_g  and suttonwriter , you two are both wonderful thinkers on so many useful topics (even if half of compy's are bandom ;-P). Thanks for sharing your cleverness with your flists, I hope you have truly wonderful days and the present fairies are/have been VERY generous.

And Happy Birthday for yesterday to salviag  and lusiology , hopw you both had a brilliant one!
