Books for September, 2005

[pegkerr]

Beauty by Sherri Tepper. Re-read. I picked this up after several years away to refresh my recollection to see whether it would be suitable for Fiona, since she likes fairytale retellings. At first I thought yes, and then I thought maybe she could wait on it, given the brutal rape. I have mixed feelings about this one. Parts are effective, but parts are extremely polemic; Tepper really does have certain hobby horses that she rides very hard.

The Dubious Hills by Pamela Dean (pameladean). Re-read.

The Little Country by Charles DeLint. First time read.

Short list this month. Very busy with various things, and it has gotten in the way of my reading rather more than usual.
