Novel novels: April 2010

1. Muse and Reverie by Charles de Lint
  • 3 stars

  • 4 stars

3. Myst (trilogy) by Rand and Robyn Miller
  • 2.5 stars

4. The Folk of the Fringe by Orson Scott Card
  • 2.5 stars

5. Miss Manners' Guide to a Surprisingly Dignified Wedding by Judith Martin, Jacobina Martin
  • 3 stars
  • There's a special place in my heart for Miss Manners, who has managed to hit that special brand of diplomatic sarcasm thrice weekly for the past 33 years. Amazing.

6. Something to Declare, edited by Gillian Kendall
  • 3.5 stars

7. All My Sins Remembered by Joe Haldeman
  • 3 stars

  • 4.5 stars
  • One of my friends (who was a friend of the author) gives copies of this book out routinely to visitors. High-larious.


Scoring system is as follows:
1 star = hated
1.5 stars = didn't enjoy, but didn't hate
2 stars = didn't enjoy particularly
2.5 stars = enjoyed somewhat
3 stars = enjoyed, but might not read again
3.5 stars = would probably read again
4 stars = would like to own a copy
4.5 stars = would like to own a copy, and would probably read occasionally
5 stars = would like to own a copy, and would probably read often
