October 2011 Readings

86. Discover of Witches by Deborah Harkness
I was into the academic side but I'm more than over the supernatural romances. Cliff-hanger ending, & probably won't bother with the sequel.

87. Garden Spells by Sarah Addison Allen
Loving Sarah Addison Allen, read-like-Alice Hoffman.

88. Secret Lives of Dress by Erin McKean
Fun, chicklit, but not silly enough to make me feel bad for having put time into it. Imagine a vintage dress shop with a file of short stories, one for each dress. Wouldn't that be worth trying to preserve? :)

89. Yotsuba&! Vol. 7 by Kiyohiko Azuma
Seriously love this manga.

90. The Commoner by John Burnham Schwartz
Fictional autobiography of the commoner who became the queen of japan after meeting the crown prince at a tennis match.

91. Yotsuba&! Vol. 8

92. Yotsuba&! Vol. 9

93. Amphigorey: Fifteen books by Edward Gorey
I should make a point to read Gorey at least every October.

94. Always a Witch by Carolyn MacCullough

95. The City & the City by Chine Mieville
Excellent! A mystery between two city that aren't quite in the same reality! Amazing, particularly for city/culture junkies.

96. Bread Alone by Judith Ryan Hendricks

97. Anya's Ghost by Vera Brosgol

98. Blue Pills: A Positive Love Story by Fredrik Peeters
One of the best memoirs or graphic novels I've read. Recommend to Craig Thompson fans. What if the love of your life was HIV positive?

99. The Clockwork Girl by O'Reilly & Hanva
