The Handmaid’s Tale<\/a><\/cite> — Margaret Atwood
\nBest book of the month, as you might expect. This is the novel that made Margaret Atwood famous, the classic dystopian story of an America taken over by the religious right. Slightly dated in places, but still chilling.\n<\/p>\n\nFever Pitch<\/cite> — Nick Hornby
\nThis is the book that made football cool for the intelligensia in the early nineties. Hornby writes well about his experiences as an Arsenal fan.\n<\/p>\n\nAlphabet of Thorn<\/cite> — Patricia A. McKillip
\nAn orphan working in the royal library comes in possession of a book only she can read, the story it tells may be more than just ancient history. A decent novel by a veteran fantasy author.\n<\/p>\n\nUp Against It<\/cite> — M. J. Locke
\nAn excellent hardish science fiction story by a new (to me) author.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"Yes, I know, I keep forgetting to put these posts up.
