Reading binge

Reading binge	April 10th, 2010
	reading `[html]`

I've been on a bit of a reading binge lately. Pastwatch, Ender in Exile, Zodiac, Anathem. The first three took about as long as the last one. All four were good, though anathem got a little dull in the middle and I'm starting to get slightly sick of ender sequels. Of course, I knew ender in exile was an ender sequel before I started it, so I've no one else to blame. Mmm; reading.
