So much time has slipped by between when I said I wanted to talk about books and now, and in the meantime, other books have also arrived, plus other reading matter--I feel like Little Springtime, who has an LJ tag, "Oh LJ I have so much to tell you!"

What I want to do is give you some tastes of books I'm reading or have read recently. This entry is way more text than anyone wants to see in their friends feed, so I've put the quotes and discussion under cuts. You can choose which ones you want to read, come back when you have time, etc.

LJ, I still have loads more to share, but it's a sunny weekend day, and I think Little Springtime and the healing angel and I might try a picnic.
