@GraceKrispy: Great and super informative review. Eats, Shoots & Leaves is a great book as well :P
@Caleb: Yeah. I totally know what you mean about paranormal stuff pushing out the other SF/F. It's really cool that speculative fiction is so mainstream now, but I haven't warmed up to the paranormal/urban fantasy sub-genre. I pretty much started my review blog to respond to the dearth of blogs that reviewed indie SF outside of that subgenre. Even if I did like that subgenre, it wouldn't add as much to the reviewscape since like 30-40% of the book blogs out there already have a focus on paranormal/urban fantasy and are already well-established.
