* Huntress was remarkable satisfying: tightly plotted, gripping world, likeable and strong lesbian POC characters, some exploration of class issues, and all around pretty awesome book.
I am going over to say this on amazon, something I'm planning to do more of because authors need money and encouragement to eat and keep producing things like this.
* I've started The Absolutely True Diary of a Part-Time Indian, and it is absolutely living up to the hype. It's an important book, with so much to say about race and class in America. It's also a rare book with a disabled main character. I have been extremely fond of Sherman Alexie for years, as a writer, activist, and parent, and it pleases me that he's hitting this one out of the park.Tuesday, September 13th, 2011
