Books
Books 161-165, Fiction 152-155, Non-Fiction 10.
Fiction:
152-154. Mike Shepherd, Kris Longknife: Defiant, Kris Longknife: Resolute, Kris Longknife: Audacious.
Like really cheap tasty chocolate. Except in book form. Space opera. Fun.
155. Laurell K. Hamilton, A Lick of Frost.
I know what you're thinking. But my patience is paying off. There are only about three or four superfluous sex scenes in this novel (maybe five or six? I do not keep track), and they're getting shorter. At the same time, the politics and the actual relationship shit is getting more interesting. It's not a bad book, by half.
Non-Fiction:
10. Sarah B. Pomeroy, Spartan Women.
Clear, lucid, engaging academic treatise on the evidence relating to Spartan women, and its interpretations. With footnotes. Lots of lovely footnotes and discussion.
I cannot praise her enough.
