Like I predicted, my reading has slowed down quite a bit due to my writing. Last week I finished Rapture in Death (guilty pleasure) by J.D. Robb. I read somewhere that she tries to write her In Death series in threes, and this is the fourth book in the series, which means she had a break after the first three and worked on other projects. It sort of reads like it too. There's a bit more fluff than I usually notice and it's just not as tight as some of the other books. But I read them as sort of a palate cleanser more than as a main course, so I suppose I shouldn't look at them too critically.
I am reading two other books simultaneously. City of Refuge, Tom Piazza (for fun, and what a great name for a writer) and The Hero's Journey: Joseph Campbell on His Life and Work, Joseph Campbell and Phil Cousineau (research).
At the rate I'm going it'll take me awhile to finish both of those. Writing is going well, so I can't complain.
