Finished Asher Lev!

It's going to be hard to wait for the discussion, especially since I'll be travelling for much of the early part. But I'll be here for the beginning, and will attempt keep myself in check until the 15th.

Thanks Wolfram. I have a whole two more days!

I'd be finished with Asher Lev by now if I wasn't cheating with House of Sleep and S1 Farscape episodes. It's good to have one more weekend.

I'd like to post a reminder about the discussion date in Press and include our upcoming book's ( Small World ) discussion date as well. How does Monday, October 11 sound? Also, now is probably a good time to finalize the procedure for picking the next book.

I was digging through some books last weekend prior to dumping them all at goodwill and found a) the first book of a trilogy I haven't seen in forever and was thus unable to reread the other two books which I did have, and b)Asher Lev! Yay me with the timing.

I am seriously chomping at the bit to discuss this one. Didn't really have that with the last one.

"This bar smells like kerosene and stripper tears."

With you. I've already started the next one, so I'd like to get all my thoughts out on this one. The new one has already made me snort rather loudly this afternoon.

The new one is waiting at the library hold for me. I'm stalling.

Joining you in stall mode, Wolfram, although it's hard. I've picked it up, but haven't opened it yet. I'm carefully reading another book so I won't be too tempted.
