March

I finished The Deep Field last night; it's a lovely book and I am really glad I own it. Now I am reading March which is a library book. It's due back in a couple of weeks so I will have to read it quickly, get it read before I go to Melbourne in 10 days.

The Deep Field

Another of my recent batch from Leura books, I started The Deep Field last night. It's a lovely book in great condition. It's also a lovely book to read, a beautifully written story set far, far into the future. The writing has an antiquated feel to it, so it's an odd counterbalance to its futuristic setting and I am really enjoying it so far.

Edens Lost

Very quickly finished David Malouf's slim volume and almost through Edens Lost; plenty of reading time with recent trips to Melbourne and Sydney. Edens Lost is part of a recent haul from Leura. I've also had quotes for some of the really hard books to find, and they are WAY out of the league of this little clutch - over $100-200! I will put the details on here when I have a little more time.







Picked up Ice Sation for $10 at an airport shop.

A Private Man




Finished Morgan's Run last night. Now reading A Private Man... not the edition with the "girly" cover, either!!
