here. fold these towels. c'mon..... puh-leeeez??

reading 'the god of the hive' i realised i'd missed the book before. there were too many references to a story i didn't know. laurie king writes the mary russell series as if they were all one book -- the next one picks up right where the previous one left off. i mean, Right Where. not like a quick recap of the current status and off we go. no, it's more as if the new book were merely the next chapter in the previous book. it's really cool and i really enjoy it, but it really highlights when you've skipped one. so, i inadvertantly skipped 'the language of bees'. a quick check in my local liberry's online catalog, type in my liberry card number which i of course have handy in my vast memory banks, click, click, wah-lah. book at my fingertips, right here on the iphone. the only drawback is the screen is so small that about 3 words fit on a page. other than that, it's stupendous.
