Total slacker this month. Eight books. That’s all. I even took books when we took our long weekend at Canaan, but never got around to reading them.<\/p>\n
The best books of the month were The Very Best of Charles de Lint by Charles de Lint. I love Charles de Lint, so this shouldn’t be a surprise. This is also an anthology I was reading for several months. Half-Resurrection Blues by Daniel Jos\u00e9 Older, and Summer Campaign by Carla Kelly. Three very different books from very different genres, but all were very good and all are highly recommended.<\/p>\n
