ceitfiannaRight, I planned on doing this post a bit ago but family invaded.
If you have any interest in the 19th Century and mythology go read The Fall of Troy by Peter Ackroyd, its about Heinrich Schillieman who was the crazy German not quite archaeologist who dug at Mycenae, Tiryns and Troy told from the point of view of his wife. Its complex and dense and brings in so many layers and I really recommend it.
Also I've read House of Many Ways which is why I love Diana Wynne Jones, its funny, sweet and about figuring out who you are versus who other people tell you that you should be.
Wraith Squadron on the other hand is crack Star Wars fun and features Wes and Kettch.
Life is good, I love my family, I loved having two nights to myself and then being the youngest sister again. I'm going to be writing a cover letter for a job that's a stretch, volunteer manager at Winterthur but I think I can do it.
