So, I'm finding myself getting a slow start on this faux-Monday morning, after an afternoon and evening spent in the sublime company of Sunshine, Mr. Cavin, and the inimitable Bet. Christopher suggested last week that everyone post a list of the books they have out from the library. Mine after the cut (though I'm taking a bunch back so the "block" on my account will come off and I can pick up Skin Hunger and Innocence) -- lack of caps can be blamed on the library ELF:
