I tried LT a while ago but it didn’t really grab me. I should give it another look. Thanks for the reminder, Erin.

Do you use Library Thing? It’s a great way to keep track of books you would like to read. Whenever I see something interesting I add it to my LT tbr library.

LF, thanks. I will probably write one more post on the book this week. It’s one that will stay on my mind for a while.

Marg, yeah, if I can just keep my husband away from it long enough to finish it. Last night we tried reading it simultaneously, sitting side by side at the table with the book flat and the pages in between his spot and mine held straight up in the middle — but it gave me a crick in the neck. I may have to make a run to the bookstore today.

I have really enjoyed all the Novik books, so I think that you have a real treat in front of you!

I had never heard of Siri Hustvedt before Andi mentioned her, and I am glad to hear you enjoyed her book, What I Loved. I am looking forward to reading that one even more after having read your thoughts on the novel.

His Majesty’s Dragon also sounds like a good one. Another one to add to my wish list.

I hope you have a great week!
