It is Wednesday? Again? Already? My goodness. This time last Wednesday I forgot it was Wednesday until it was Thursday. And that’s what March has felt like: surprise that it’s so late in the day/week/month so soon. I am still dating things “2012.”
What are you currently reading? Evil for Evil by K. J. Parker. The second book in the Engineer Trilogy is Long. It’s 684 pages, and it feels like it. If I just had two hours together, I could sit down and finish it, but I haven’t had two hours together for days and days, which is how long I’ve been reading this book.
What have you recently finished reading? Devices and Desires by K. J. Parker. And if we’re counting audiobooks, which of course we are, I finished The Wee Free Men by Terry Pratchett on the same day. I’ve ordered the next Tiffany Aching book from Inter-Library Loan, but it’s still in transit, so meanwhile I’ve been listening to The Voyage of the Dawn Treader by C. S. Lewis, read by Derek Jacobi, as a placeholder, because it is only five discs long.
What do you think you’ll read next? I’d love to get to The Escapement by K. J. Parker, but I’ve got three books checked out from the library that are due on April 7 and cannot be renewed. I am trying to think whether I can finish the Parker novel, the pesky still-unread nonfiction book on writing, and three medium-length library books in less than two weeks. Once upon a time, questioning this would have been laughable; but lately, Where has all the the time gone? I have no idea. See above.
