Om migI don't know how others make the all-important decision between four stars and five, three and two. But I try not to give five stars to something unless it is mind-shatteringly sublime, or unless it is both fairly splendid and strikes a chord with me. Yes, with me personally. How can we possibly pretend this is objective?

Om mitt bibliotekI don't seem to have the drive to ravenously catalog my books that seems to mark others of my acquaintance. I am adding them as they come up, and enjoying annotating my reading as it progresses, but this is by no means complete, and of course includes things I am reading, but do not own.

Hello there,

Your assessment of House Of Leaves is spot on. I'm curious if you've attempted his follow up, Only Revolutions, and what your opinion, if you have, would be? I absolutely loathed it, capital L, and am searching for someone to convince me otherwise because I so wanted to love it after having looked forward to its release for so long. Oh well.

Warmly, "Lola"
Have you ever read anything by Caitlin Kiernan, another paleontologist-turned-writer? There must be something about fossils that turns people toward literature. Time perspective, perhaps?
You're welcome. People with eclectic tastes are always interesting. Are you a paleontologist with a literary streak, or a literati with a paleontological streak?

I suppose the latter...I was an embryo paleontologist until age 20 but my development took a sudden left turn. Now I'm a writer. How about you?

Originally professional student, mostly paleontology but with odd bits here and there. Then computer programmer. Now environmental compliance officer for a transit district.
Thanks for adding me to your "interesting libraries" - there aren't that many of us with _Big Cats and Their Fossil Relatives_!
