The Scorpio Races
My tech week read was M. Steifvater's The Scorpio Races, which was perfect, because it kept me hooked enough to be able to read backstage and ignore all the madness, but not hooked enough to miss my cue.
Maggie is a talented enough author to make me like horses, apparently. That's pretty impressive. They're actually sort of human eating horses, called Capaill Uisce, which makes them a lot more likable in my opinion, but still. I'm not a horse person.
Also, Steifvater is good enough to make me enjoy the unnecessary hetero relationship. Wow.
So yeah! Pretty good book! Ordinary enough for me to not need to buy it, but good enough for me to not return it to the library right away.
I think the lesson here is that I should've listened to Elizabeth's book suggestions a long time ago, because Elizabeth is usually right.
