bookish notations
I’ve got a review of Alice Hoffman’s wonderful latest, THE FORETELLING, to write for Endicott, and I can’t find my copy. Boo.
I’m currently plowing through TWILIGHT by Stephanie Meyer, for the next review.
Cherie Priest’s FOUR AND TWENTY BLACKBIRDS arrived today.
PRE-RAPHAELITES IN LOVE remains unfinished, but that’s okay, as it makes for a fine book for nibbling.
I kind of feel like kicking back and reading a book on, say, journaling.
Feel free to note what you’ve been reading in the comments section. I’d like to know!

I’m currently reading ‘The Unabridged Journals of Sylvia Plath’. Which is weird, because I’ve never read her poetry and I wasn’t the biggest fan of ‘The Bell Jar’, but for some reason decided I’d take an interest in this woman.
(I successfully immunised myself against any chance of hating Ted Hughes when I was young, by reading ‘The Iron Man’ / ‘The Iron Giant’, so I know I can’t hate him like some of the more… rabid Plath fans.)
I bought the old edition of ‘Four and Twenty Blackbirds’ when Warren pimped it a year or two ago. It’s very good. Kinda like a less formulaic Caitlin Kiernan, or a stylistically better Poppy Z Brite.
