ladyspriteThe true tragedy and horror of the holiday season is this:
Winding up with a new Charles DeLint novel - the first collection of Newford short stories in years - and a new Kelley Armstrong novel, finally focusing on your favorite characters again, both waiting and teasing and tempting you on your to-read pile while you're about 100 pages from the end of the most dull, poorly-written, mediocre urban fantasy novel that it's ever been your dubious pleasure to plod through.
I've put enough time and effort into finishing this book that I don't want to give up now, this close to the end. But it's getting harder and harder to push through it with such delicious brain candy waiting for me and calling my name.
Of course, then I have the added trauma of having to choose between the two...
My life is so hard.
