Read Thornhedge yesterday! It was really good. Reminded me of Gail Carson Levine's Princess Tales, which I loved so much as a kid. Nothing hits quite like a good fairytale with a twist!

I also got some books in the mail recently:

I'm looking forward to reading these!

Reading sir Gawain and the green knight and the description of aforementioned green knight made me think of Ebony Dark’ness Dementia Raven Way

"...Then Sir Lamyell of Cardiff, who was also a great lover; Sir Playne de Fors, Sir Melyas de Lyle, and King Arthur's son, Sir Boarte le Cure; Sir Madore de la Porte, Sir Collgrevaunce, Sir Hervyse de la Foreyst Saveage, and Sir Marrok, who was betrayed by his wife and had spent seven years as a werewolf. Then the three brothers, Sir Persaunte, SIr Pertolope, and SIr Perymones, all of whom Sir Gareth had won when he was called Beaumains."

Finally finished tsoa. Didn't like it much. I'm afraid no retelling on this beautiful Earth will make me sympathetic towards Achilles. Especially one which makes such baffling choices regarding the female characters.
