The Long Earth by Terry Pratchett and Stephen Baxter Books of 2012: The Long Earth by Terry Pratchett and Stephen Baxter

Instead of writing one huge post of all the books I’m looking forward to in 2012 with info on them, I had decided to highlight some of these books in their own posts throughout the rest of 2011. I’ve decided to carry this feature forward into this year as I discover new books coming out this year that sound interesting and continue with books of 2013 as it gets closer to the end of the year. The Long Earth is […]

The Winds of Khalakovo by Bradley P. Beaulieu The Leaning Pile of Books

This week I have two books that came in to tell you about. Actually, I’ve already talked about one of them before because it was one of my most anticipated books of 2012, so I’ll just point you to the post on Range of Ghosts by […]

The Serpent Sea by Martha Wells The Serpent Sea is the second of the Books of the Raksura, following The Cloud Roads. It […]

Hugo Awards 2012: The Year of the Book Blogger?

Lately you may have begun to see a lot of suggestions that SFF book bloggers be considered for Hugo Awards in the categories Best Fanzine and Best Fan Writer. It’s an interesting discussion, and I personally would love to see some of my favorite book bloggers recognized for their hard work in writing about authors and books. At this point, most of my reading recommendations come from the various book bloggers I follow. I don’t know what I ever did […]

Bitterblue by Kristin Cashore The Leaning Pile of Books

This was a great week for books – 2 ARCs and 2 finished review copies showed up unexpectedly, including an ARC of one of my very most anticipated books of the year. On the reviewing front, it was a bit quiet last week because my home was in complete chaos due to the construction of a new bookshelf in the bedroom. Part of my bedroom was in the living room and it was such a mess I found it hard […]
