It really doesn't matter. It's just an opinion. Don't worry about it. Not worth the hassle.

OK, there's something - damn. I can't analyse; I refuse.

But I can try this, Erin, and please tell me sod off and shut the fuck up if not?

But I don't want to shelter you.
I want to watch you seek, and crash and burn

and rise.

Because that way?

I don't have to.

(There's just something - something in the pauses, or the breaths.)

A dress should be tight enough to show you're a woman but loose enough to flee from zombies. — Ginger

No, no. No sodding off, here.

I pondered (god, how pretentious!) the crash and burn line, too.

I do like the irony in dropping, the "rise" line - that's good.

Hrm.

If I only had a brain...

A friendly person over at NaNoWrimo gave me this link:

Deb, I did a review, but it wouldn't let me say what should be purchased with it. Right now it recommends Sunshine, which isn't really a bad choice, though not thematic or even similar in style. I did like them both. Fewer narrative problems in Weaver, though.

Who? moi??

Good reference, Betsy. I only read the link page, but it seemed very good to me.

Days shrink and grow cold, sunlight through leaves is my song. Winter is long.

Deena, I may have missed a step. Your review is up but mine isn't--and it didn't offer me the options of books to choose with Weaver. Did I do something wrong?

Should I go back to Amazon and try to post it again, you think?

Beverly, if mine is up, that's new. They take a bit to review it, and they didn't offer me the opportunity of suggesting something to go with it either, so everything's probably fine.

Okay, I may have stuck my foot in it, because I posted it again. Oh well. We'll see what transpires.

I think, if you post it twice, they just delete the second one. I have to go read the review. Did you like it? I wasn't sure if I was saying enough -- they kill any review that they think tells too much.

Ah, I'm slow, but I'm stubborn. When you look on the full information page for Weaver, there's a spot somewhere in the middle of the page that says, I recommend this: and a blank for the ISDN number instead of/in addition to this book. You enter the ISDN number and click the radio button of your choice (though 'in addition to' seems to be the default).

I recommended 'in addition to' Gaiman's Neverwhere and Terry Windling's Woodwife hoping that readers who like them will pick it up. I would.
