New Library Books

[erastes]

So - I finished the Trollope and I did like it, for all its length and interminable slowness. As so little happened I can't really say anything about it, but the ending was a surprise. I'll probably try Trollope again, perhaps the Barchester Chronicles.

So "I went to the library and I got:"

English Passengers by Matthew Kneale
Eragon by Christopher Paolini (yeah, I know... I know... I said I wouldn't bother but you can't really spork if you haven't read...)
The Seventh Son by Reay Tannahill
Sharpe's Triumph by Bernard Cornwell
Web by John Wyndham
The Rules of Magic by Annie Dalton
Black Sheep by Georgette Heyer (cough... how did that get in there?)
The Algebraist by Iain M Banks

*giggles*

Rather amusing range.

Anyone read? Anyone want to comment?

No chance he's gay, is there?

No, but the younger brother in These Old Shades could be.

Oh yes, he could be. There are certainly some slashy characters in her novels!

not only could be, but totally is :)

As is Gill in Friday's Child.

*ahem*

I discovered lately that it's supposed to be very rude to gatecrash someone else's thread, especially if you don't know them, so sorry about this...

I'm thrilled to find so many Heyer readers, thanks to erastes introducing the topic.

Speaking of the gayness of Gil...

Anyone can gatecrash here, except to be rude, and you weren't being at all rude, so never worry!
