As of 11/14/2009:
- Buffy the Vampire Slayer. season eight. vol. 3, Wolves at the Gate by Drew Goddard. Buffy experiments, Dracula makes an appearance. All together satisfying.
- Seize the Night by Sherrilyn Kenyon. My favorite Dark Hunter novel, this was a re-read
- Hot gimmick. Vol. 12 by Miki Aihara. Manga.
- Love com. 1 by Aya Nakahara. Manga.
- Building a WordPress Blog People Want to Read By Scott McNulty. Highly recommended if you have anything to do with WordPress. I had it on hold for a long time before I got it. Apparently so did someone else because I couldn’t renew it. So I kept it and paid the late fee. It was worth it. It gets into the mechanics of WordPress rather than the best ways to write and publish your blog. I hope to find it electronically to add to my collection.
- A Touch of Dead: Sookie Stackhouse: the Complete Stories by Charlaine Harris
- The Dark-Hunters. Volume 1 by Sherrilyn Kenyon. Graphic novel. I had to put it on hold. It tells the beginning of Kyrian and Amanda’s story which I’ve not read in novel form. Now I don’t have to except I doubt the graphic novel will turn x-rated like the books do. Alas.
- Remember Me to Harold Square by Paula Danziger. I love this author. I read The Pistachio Prescription when I was in junior high. I love this author.
- Picket Fences by Kimberly Cates. Maudlin.
- The Disciples of Trotsky by Cevin Soling. Graphic novel. I found it shoved behind other graphic novels when shelving one day. I don’t think it circulates and will get weeded which is a shame. It should probably not go in Teen, despite its cartoonish style. I found it delightful and subversive.
- Chasing the Bear: a Young Spenser Novel by Robert B. Parker
- The Boxer and the Spy by by Robert B. Parker
- My Soul to Take by Rachel Vincent. Teen book. Well plotted, not too contrived for a book about banshees (spelled bean sidhe in the book). Kaylee was a cool teen I’d want in my library.
- Garden Spells by Sarah Addison Allen. I didn’t like it as much as The Sugar Queen. Garden Spells was her first book. It’s a good thing I didn’t read them in order or I may not have made it to The Sugar Queen which I did like.
- The Jungle by Peter Kuper. Graphic novelization of The Jungle by Upton Sinclair. The artwork was really excellent. It really communicated the despair, hopelessness and filth.
