Reading

[krait]

Not having made much progress in any of the things I was reading, I decided to read The Goblin Emperor instead. The change seems to have knocked out my reading block! I finished it in a day, and then read Neil Gaiman's Norse Mythology (on loan from a coworker) the following night.

Now I'm browsing through the 22 pages of Goblin Emperor fic on AO3 in a leisurely way, but my attention is split and I'll hopefully make it through a couple of the books I got stalled on.

Thank you, re: icon -- I found it as fanart, but apparently it's the cover of the Spanish edition, and it's my favorite Maia image by far!

My fave will always be Thor's Crossdressing Wedding,

Haha, same! I also didn't have a ton to say about Norse Mythology, but I did like the balance Gaiman managed with Loki, which is one of the main things I care about when it comes to Norse mythology :)

The new Paarfi literally came out yesterday! (It's a distinct set of characters from the Khaavren books, set earlier than TPG -- or at least it starts earlier, not sure how far the action will extend. The only familiar name on the Dramatis Personae list was Daro, but I haven't gotten to her yet; I assume she's a minor character at the end of the book, from her placement towards the end of the list.

I haven't even finished the last Vlad book yet (it sorta got buried during the bathroom remodel

Haha, well, if any Vlad book should get sort of buried during a bathroom remodel, Vallista would definitely be the right one, thematically speaking :)

Apparently Tsalmoth is pretty slow going, so I'm actually kind of jealous you still have unread Vlad to tide you over before the new one comes out.
