Ooh – Bookslut heads up: new post for Booksluts in Training! This month it’s adventure novels, and Colleen reviews several, including Secret Under My Skin, which I recently enjoyed. There’s also an interview with Marisha Pessl of “Nabokovian in scope and style” review fame. Interesting stuff.
Via BookMoot, author Garth Nix has written a farewell poem for Steve Irwin that found me briefly surprised with tears. As one friend has lamented, yet another awful thing about Irwin’s death is that his was the only voice imitation people could do that everyone would recognize. Now every Australian voice Americans hear will remind them of him. Which will actually bring a smile.
Happy Weekend, everybody!
