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."
totally wrong thread. Sorry about that.
Because I hadn't read the first, I could not figure out who were siblings and who were cousins
The siblings are Toby (the blond boy), Sophia (the narrator), and Henry (the tomboy). Veronica is the cousin (and daughter of the King), and Simon is possibly her half-brother and also the King's son, I haven't read the second one yet and I don't know if that's been answered.
Replied in wrong thread. sorry.
In the second book, it is implied that Toby
and Simon are lovers, and Sophia likes Simon.
So the half brother thing is a little confusing.
Yes, that's also implied in the first one. So, half-cousins, I guess. The British are less stressed about consanguinity.
Hugo nominees: [link]
Wow. I'm kind of shocked that Patrick Rothfuss wasn't nominated for Best Novel for "A Wise Man's Fear".
But how awesome was it that Community was nominated for "Remedial Chaos Theory"?!

That is pretty awesome!!
And Seanan was nominated four times, which is the first time a woman has received four Hugo nominations in the same year!
Oh, Digger got nominated! YAY! That is such a great story.
