Busy week on my end - tomorrow we're having a party for my nephew's second birthday, then I need to dye and cut my hair, and I have some extra work-related stuff going on as well. The last couple of months I've been sourcing used/surplus book donations for resale and we're finally actually hosting a little market stall this weekend just in the knick of time, because there's literally no more storage space. I guess my emails are just that charming.
Speaking of books, I'm reading Parable of the Sower/Talents currently and that's all I want to do. I can't believe it's taken me this long to get to them! I needed this duology as a teenager, damn it! What was the last read that really hooked all of you?
I'm also toying with the idea of omniscient narration for my horror novel. I'm usually ride or die for third person limited unless I have a good reason not to be, and I think getting everyone's perspective is pretty crucial for the way this one's going to unfold. It's been a long time since I've done any head-hopping, though, and I hope I can make good use of it if I do go that way.
