72) Startide Rising, by David Brin, via Audible

Part of my ongoing "read the Hugo winners" project. It was OK, but I didn't love it. Might've worked a little better in print; I think some of the names that were a little too similar in audio may have been spelled differently enough to be less confusing.

70) [reread] A Wrinkle In Time, by Madeline L'Engle, on CD, read by the author

Found it on the used table at Readers, Inc. a while back, and I like to listen to audiobooks on CD while I do housework. It had been decades since I last read this; it was nice to revisit.

?.38) 1 Corinthians

69) One Salt Sea, by seanan_mcguire

Yay for Toby books! 5th in the series; if you haven't read them, start with Rosemary and Rue; I'll try not to be spoilery here.

I don't like plot-summary reviews, because they're always a little spoilery, so I'll just say that that was NOT how I expected the particular interpersonal situation to resolve. Gracious. ( Read more... )

68) Spellwright, by Blake Charlton

Didn't like this one as much as I'd expected; I just couldn't really get into it for some reason. Too much angst, maybe? I probably won't pick up the sequel.

67) Cannery Row by John Steinbeck, via Audible

Every time I take the coastal route north, I feel like I should read some Steinbeck. I meant to listen to this on the way to and / or from Westercon, but forgot to load it on my ipod. It wasn't bad, but I prefer books with plot.
