Actually one thing love about Brust many styles uses one he find suits particular story or series.

Literary Buffistas 3: Don't Parse the Blurb, Dear.
There's more to life than watching Buffy the Vampire Slayer! No. Really, there is! Honestly! Here's a place for Buffistas to come and discuss what it is they're reading, their favorite authors and poets. "Geez. Crack a book sometime."

I read Bad Monkeys a few months ago and found it very entertaining as well. I definitely liked it. It's one of the most page-turning books I've ever read.

Yup, I would agree it was very page-turning, even when I was going o_0 at Jane's choices.

I read Little Bee yesterday and thought it was AMAZING. Anyone else read it?

You should know I'm a big deal in the Resistance.
I finished Cowboy Feng iffy about the ending. I have a helf-baked theory that Brust started the book without an ending in mind and when he got to that point he just couldn't think of anything else. But I did enjoy the ride.

The status is NOT quo.
I stayed up until 4am to finish the last of the Larsson books. I liked the first one all right, but DAMN the second two were good!

Because books.

It's good to keep hearing that, because I keep trying to get into the first one and it's not working that well. Right now I'm simply too distracted, but I know there's a payoff, so.

If it helps, a number of people I know felt the first book was slow until about page 150.

Yep, mw speaks true.
