I got over it, you can too. It's worth it to watch Tinker kick butt.

Next up, Cockroaches, the second book in the Harry Hole series by Jo Nesbo. I really enjoyed The Bat, and this one is going well. This is a Library eBook, since it only just became available in the US, and I was willing to wait for my hold to come up at the BC Library site.
This second book in the Harry Hole series from Jo Nesbo was excellent, and fulfilled the promise of the first in the series. Best part is, most of them are available from the library so I just have to play my Holds right and I won't have to buy them.

Harry is a very flawed character, but we're getting more information about why he's flawed and how he works through it and/or uses it to his advantage. These are darkish mysteries, but very much worth the read. I'm looking forward to The Redbreast, the third in the series. I got this at a great price from Amazon, discounted down to $2.99. (It's back up to $6.76.) But it will have to wait a bit, I need a break between books.

I'm going to read a bit of basic SF - Sassinak by Elizabeth Moon and Anne McCaffrey. I read this many years ago as a pBook when it first came out, but have completely forgotten it, so looking forward to it.
