Book Resolution

Many people are making book resolutions. Here is mine.

I resolve to read whatever I want, however I want. If I feel like whittling down the number of books that have been lurking unread for 20 years, I will do that. If I feel like reading the entire Anthony Award longlist, I will do that. If I feel like making a poll, I will do that. If I feel like diving into contemporary horror, I will do that.

Rec me a book?

Have you ever read any Christianna Brand? I read Green for Danger a while back and never got around to writing it up, but it's a golden age mystery set in a wartime hospital with some really interesting characterization and a lot of really pleasingly specific detail about life in the hospital, the V.A.D. hut, etc.
