More bracketology

First, check it out before it disappears! I'm tied for 7th in the DABWAHA tournament.

Next, check out the Bracket of Evil. Who to vote for next?

Thirdly, reading and watching Generation Kill is doing terrible things to my blood pressure and my opinion of the American military as an institution.

And lastly, I'm in a horrendous reading slump. A Conspiracy of Kings? Meh, set aside after a chapter. The Redbreast? Same. Scoundrel's Kiss? Made it to three chapters, but also set aside. I'm not sure what to try next.

Ooh, I can't decide on the Bracket of Evil at ALL. Wow, tough choices. :)

And congrats on your bracketology.

I'm in a reading and writing slump again too. Just listened to yet another Carl Hiassan and I shouldn't have because it was way too familiar even though I hadn't read it (Scat, a kids' book)

The only other books I have lined up are bleak wintry things like As Meat Loves Salt --the fluffiest is a Maisie Dobbs mystery. Not sure how that happened.

Hi! Have you read the books preceding A Conspiracy of Kings? I am such a fan of Turner's work but was definitely disappointed in the latest installment. It's possible if I didn't have such high expectations for her in the first place that I wouldn't have been so disappointed but I felt like it was a step down in every way from the rest of the series.

Oops, forgot to mention that I'm swinging by via sum of me. Also, I just popped by your profile and noticed you are also a member of the Sounis community so maybe, yes, you are a fan of the previous books. :)
