Still low on time, so have an abridged version.
Things I finished reading and need to tell you all about
Angela 1602 #1-4, Bloodfellas, Carnets de thèse, Chronicles of Legion 1-3, Darkness Over Cannae, Dr Fate 1-4, D'un monde à l'autre (La Quête d'Ewilan, tome 1), Eagles of Rome 2 & 3, Fragile Things, L'arabe du futur 1, Le Jardin des silences, Loki:Agent of Asgard #1-17, Magnus Chase and the Sword of Asgard, Prince of Cats, Saints 1, Sandman Overture 1-6, Secret Wars 1-6 (still ongoing), Spider-Gwen v1 1-5, Spider-Gwen v2 001, The Infinite Loop 1, The Red Pyramid, Toil and trouble 1, Tumulte à Rome
Things I am currently reading, inasmuch as I'm reading anything
Books on hiatus: The Art of War, The Kick-Ass Writer, La véritable histoire de Carthage et de Hannibal, Les Fleurs du Mal, Métronome, Rome's Revolution and The Grass-King's Concubine.
Still reading:
Ghosts of Cannae: Hannibal and the Darkest Hour of the Roman Republic, by Robert L. O’Connell
Trickster Makes This World, by Lewis Hyde
Romanitas, by Sophia McDougall
La quête d'Ewilan, Tome 2 : Les frontières de glace
Le lecteur de cadavre
Things I plan to read next
I'm not reposting the old list, but actually I have a question.
I occured to me that when I read books set in Paris, I can actually go walk the locations in the book. I could do one chapter/one walk a week and post some pictures/commentary. Does that sound of interest to anyone?
(I want to start with Fred Vargas' Temps Glaciaires -- or possibly a reread of Pars vite et reviens tard -- and I am about 90% sure my dad is getting it for me at Christmas, so if I did do this, I would start in 2016.)

Date: 2015-11-04 06:23 pm (UTC)I don't have any specific suggestions, but I always get an extra enjoyment out of reading books set in NYC for this same reason. There's something so cool about knowing exactly where a scene is set! I love being able to recognize somewhere I've been.
