ve The following is about a months worth of loot that has been sitting in a box I was forbidden to take anything out of until I got the existing backlog whittled down to a certain amount.  I think I'll try to stick to that in the future, as it seemed to work pretty well for me.  *ignores laughter*

The whole thing is likely just proof that I shouldn't be allowed access to certain sales.

The stuff in italics is just to point them out to [personal profile] prozacparkfor possible fodder for chats about books based on/influenced by fairy tales and myths.

I am jealous of you for (1) having time to read all that (or even to expect to be able to read all that), and (2) having space to store it all!

1) Well, at least half(probably more) is short and/or light YA fantasy and mystery

2) Towers. Two tall ones. That currently have nowhere to go.

Am (eventually) sending you a box of books that includes, among random other things, The Princess Academy, which I enjoyed although didn't love, and Senrid, which I bounced off of, hard.

I actually finally got that book out to you today before heading off to waste the last bits of my store credit.

You make me happy that when I was looking at Princess Academy today, I decided to leave it because I was already adding too many new authors to the mix with this batch, and had a pretty nice selection of medieval-lite YA fantasy. (Granted, mostly Gail Carson Levine, but...)

Yay. :) I hope to get the books out this weekend, but attempting to get art matted, packaged, and mailed is the priority at the moment. XD

And very understandably so!
