I finished Before the Golden Age – that Asimov-compiled 1930s sci-fi anthology I told y’all about. Long, but great read. I feel much more educated about my genre now.

And I’m regretting that I didn’t by the Golden Age anthologies that were there at the same library book sale…why, why, why??? A guy actually picked one up and was like “Here, here’s another one in the series,” and I was like “No, it’s okay; one’s enough.”

What was wrong with me???

After tsking in my general direction, go enjoy some InMonster magic:

Finally watched the Book Thief movie. I’ll give it 8 out of 10 stars. Of course it couldn’t be as good as the book, but I would have liked a little more of the narration. However, all the actors were great. I loved that they actually had German accents. I cried through the whole thing and the last sentence was spot-on.

Just a few this week but all so good. Read them! Read them all!
