Books I Have Read This Month: March 2011
Apr. 10th, 2011 11:14 am-The New Book of Goddesses and Heroines, edited by Patricia Monaghan. This was the only 'new' book I read this month, and it was fascinating. So many cool stories! Can we bring back goddess-worship please? 4/5
-A Princess of Mars, by Edgar Rice Burroughs. Re-read. Apart from the really objectionable racism in the introductory chapter, this book was, as ever, lots and lots of fun. 4/5
-The Blue Sword, by Robin McKinley. Re-read. I read this one aloud to Best Beloved, and it is one of my favorite books in all of ever. <3. 5/5
-To Sail Beyond the Sunset, by Robert Heinlein. Re-read. I like Heinlein, though sometimes the sexism is a little strong. And I like Maureen, who is kinda awesome. 3.5/5
-Stealing Fire, by Jo Graham. Re-read. Yes, again. Yes, I love this book. 5/5
-Black Ships, by Jo Graham. Re-read. Also a very good book. 4.5/5
-Bonk, by Mary Roach. Re-read. Non-fiction exploration of the scientific side of sex. Alternately hilarious, educational, and cringe-inducing. 4.5/5
-Tiger Eye, by Marjorie M. Liu. Re-read. Fun escapist fantasy with shapeshifters! 4/5
-Pegasus, by Robin McKinley. Oh wait, another new book! Where is the sequel? Where is my SEQUEL? Wibble! 4.5/5
-Dragonsong, by Anne McCaffrey. Re-read. Menolly is adorable! 4/5
-Dragonsinger, by Anne McCaffrey. Re-read. Menolly is still adorable, and I ship Robinton/Menolly/Sebell like no one's business. 4.5/5
