I think I will rename my blog "I read more (or less)." I have actually read one book in the past month. It was The White Pipes by Nancy Kress. It was one of her first books and is a fantasy. I generally don't read fantasy, but this was by Nancy (one of my favorite writers of sf).
The book is quite good and shows the creative genius of Kress which becomes evident in her later sf novels. The heroine is a "storyteller," a person able to conjure stories out of thin air, literally. The story figures become animated on a stage set between the storyteller's hands.
