Longtime avid reader, mostly within the SFFH genres these days. Also a film and TV buff. I review those and more at http://templetongate.net/. He/him
Water, water everywhere, but not a drop to drink. Now change water to books, and the second clause to but I can't decide which. I sampled three different books yesterday, but neither compelled me to continue.

My new favorite, just finished last night, is Alix E. Harrow's The Everlasting, the book within it being "The Death of Una Everlasting." Or, wait, maybe it's "The Life of Una Everlasting." It is possible the book is still being rewritten as I type this.

I started last night only 50 pages in so far but those pages are very very good.

Hi Womble. I started Alix E. Harrow's The Everlasting last night, but need to finish a review of Starling House, which I finished Friday night.

Since the Miéville only tied for the Hugo, you probably mean Jonathan Strange and Mr. Norrell.
