Feb. 24th, 2010 10:33 pmRomance:
Beverley, Jo: The Rogue's Return
(Better than Dangerous Joy; not as good as The Secret Wedding).
Mystery:
Stout, Rex: Three for the Chair
(includes "A Window for Death," "Immune to Murder," and "Too Many Detectives").
Graphic novels/comics:
Cooke, Darwyn: Parker: The Hunter (based on Richard Stark's prose novel)
(Umm. Great art. Icky, kinda misogynistic story).
Barnes, Bill, and Gene Ambaum: Reader's Advisory : Unshelved 7
(I bought this at ALA Midwinter, along with a truly fabulous "What Would Dewey Do?" shirt. It's autographed by Bill and Gene! The book, not the shirt, that is.
The forecast: scattered humor).
Manga/Manwha:
Azuma Kiyohiko: Yotsuba vol. 7.
KookHwa Huh, writer, and Sujin Kim, artist, Pig Bride vol. 1.
Urasawa Naoki: 20th Century Boys vol. 6.
Yazawa Ai, Nana vol. 20
(Aaaand there's that spoiler omg).
Yoshinaga Fumi, All My Darling Daughters.
Yoshinaga Fumi, Ooku vol. 2
(sob. ...sorry, I can't help it. For some reasons, the stories in this series make me want to cry my eyes out and keep me from sleeping at night. Frickin' Yoshinaga).
