Yeah, I was like, "Well, fantasy... but that phrasing still tickles me! I'm going to ETA that shit!"

I think it depends on the mechanism of time travel. If we invent a time machine, SFF. If it's magic or some kind of mystic portal a la the standings stones in Outlander, fantasy.

Yeah, OK, so not liking this one enough to keep going. I think I need to stay on alien worlds right now, and the writing does not appeal. Onto next!

ETA: That sounds right, Susan.

I'm cranky: I used up all my Hoopla downloads for the month, so I can't listen to the next Ile-Rien novel (The Wizard Hunters, which has some fun subtext for fans of Hercules & Iolaus).

Oh, It's a series? I guess I have a new series, then.

I've been having trouble getting all the way through books in Libby's 21 days, so I have half-plots of, like 4 books in my head right now. It's not ideal

The Ile-Rien novels are a discontiguous series. [link]

The Element of Fire is a quasi-Elizabethan fantasy. Then you skip forward a couple hundred years to a quasi-Steampunk/Sherlock Holmes fantasy (literally: 2 of the characters are a thinly-veiled Holmes & Watson, and the male lead is kind of Moriarty-ish). That's The Death of the Necromancer, and it's pretty spooky and thrilling. That was her first Hugo nom, I think.

Then The Wizard Hunters begins a trilogy about the Fall of Ile-Rien -- it's invaded by a sorcerous people from another universe, and the lead character is the daughter of the Moriarty guy in the previous book. She's great: super sarcastic, kind of depressed, very entertaining and competent. She has no patience for being thrown into another world full of gods and monsters (and beautiful young men).

Last weekend I tossed most of my Gaiman novels in the dumpster (Good Omens has been reshelved in the P section, and the Sandman collections are tucked back with graphic novels where I'd have to disturb the cat so they're still here for now). Today I've been working on updating LibraryThing since I'd somewhat abandoned it for GoodReads the last several years. When I got to the Gaiman books I deleted them from my LibraryThing library, then tried to do the same in GoodReads. GoodReads won't let me delete them. I'm not trying to change the rating or leave a nasty review, just delete my books. I was happy to do this quietly, but now I want to make A STATEMENT.

How bizarre! I just tried removing a random book from My Books just to check that I could and it was fine.

I was able to remove Robert Galbraith books last night, so they weren't protecting the TERF, just the rapist. I guess Dark Horse dropping him today changed their calculus though because I was able to delete Gaiman's stuff today.
