osprey_archerWhat I’ve Just Finished Reading
Rosemary Sutcliff’s Brother Dusty-Feet. But I intend to write a post about the Sutcliff things I’ve been reading, so I shan’t detain us here.
What I’m Reading Now
Elizabeth Gaskell’s North and South, though I am almost done. SO MANY PEOPLE DIE IN THIS BOOK. SO MANY PEOPLE.
Also I’ve gotten a copy of The Wind in the Willows without all the annoying annotations, so yay! I’m going to read that, too.
What I Plan to Read Next
I have the audiobook for Madeleine L’Engle’s And Both Were Young, so definitely that. Otherwise I’m not sure. I’m thinking I should finish the Sutcliff books at this library, because every library seems to have a different selection, so who knows when I’ll get another crack at these in particular? I definitely plan to read The Shield Ring.
Otherwise the library has mostly Sutcliff retellings, which I’m less interested in: Black Ships Before Troy, The Wandering of Odysseus, Tristan and Iseult, The Sword and the Circle, and The High Deeds of Finn Mac Cool. I might read Finn Mac Cool just because I’ve never heard of the story before….Does anyone feel strongly that I should read any of the others.
