Wednesday reading
Rumer Godden, In This House of Brede. Still one of my favorite books. I love how Godden uses omniscient to make what's almost a character of Brede as a whole; the only places where you get inside the heads of outside-Brede people are in the prologue and the envoi. On this reading, I picked up more of the hints that Dame Catherine was the right person to be elected to follow Abbess Hester.
Anna_Wing, Conditional Release. A Tolkien AU fanfic in which the Valar choose a slightly different way to handle Melkor. Humorous, with occasional sections that send chills up my spine.
On the go:
Lucy Ellmann, Ducks, Newburyport. Litfic; the life of an Ohio housewife. I suspect I'm not going to finish this one before it's due because I don't have the brainspace for 900 pages of stream-of-consciousness, but so far it's quite interesting. (Reading this book is like finding out someone's brain is running just like mine, just with different topics.)
Dorothy Sayers, Mind of the Maker. Nth reread.
The Bone reread is up to Rock Jaw.
