The Leaning Pile of Books is a feature where I talk about books I got over the last week – old or new, bought or received for review consideration (usually unsolicited). Since I hope you will find new books you’re interested in reading in these posts, I try to be as informative as possible. If I can find them, links to excerpts, author’s websites, and places where you can find more information on the book are included.
Last week brought an out-of-the-ordinary book, but first:
- In case you missed it, I posted a review of In Midnight’s Silence by T. Frohock last week. I enjoyed it and thought it was an intriguing beginning to the Los Nefilim series.
- This week there will be giveaways, an interview with Julie Czerneda as part of the This Gulf of Time and Stars blog tour, and possibly more!
- Sci-Fi Month is coming! For the last couple of years, Rinn of Rinn Reads has hosted this November event, and she’s hosting it again this year along with Lisa of Over the Effing Rainbow. Anyone can participate and you can plan your own schedule. It’s a really fun event, and I’m planning to at least read and review a couple of science fiction books (including This Gulf of Time and Stars, which I’ve already read) in November as part of it!
