You like ships. You don't seem to be looking at the destinations. What you care about is the ships, and mine's the nicest.

"This bar smells like kerosene and stripper tears."

BTW Hec, I'm really enjoying this book. I need to steal a highlighter (maybe several in different colors) to mark all the stuff.

So glad. When I first moved to LA back in '85, my couch-surf hosts had it lying around and I was totally absorbed in it. Just an incredibly fun read.

Just sent a request for it on inter-library loan fro the University Library's website.

So convenient to be able to be a demanding patron from the comfort of your own home.

It really is fun. It's nice to lighten up the reading after Asher too.

I'm about 30 pages in, but as usual, I'm cheating with several other books that keep giving me the come-hither.

But in related news, can we start compiling a list of Buffistas who are interested in volunteering to pick a book?

Heh. I'll volunteer but you should put me down low on the picking list since I'm getting one of my suggestions so early.

I can't even.

I'm game for picking a book.

Yeah, but you could pick someone else's suggestion.
