Thanks to Mulluane from Dragons, Heroes and Wizards for the reminder! John over at Grasping for the Wind started this meme for helping everyone find new blogs. His original post is as follows: My list of fantasy and sf book reviewers is woefully out of date. I need your help to fix that.

I was going to post this last night, but blogger was down when I went to do so. Over at OF Blog, there is a kind of fun reading game if you’re one of those people (like me) who can never get enough of book lists. You list 5 books recently read and one you want to read in the near future. I’ve read a couple of books this year that I would rather forget about, so I won’t do […]
