Media Roll Call
Jan. 8th, 2013 12:52 am1) The Lives of the Muses: Nine Women and the Artists They Inspired by Francine Prose - Good overview, interesting choice of ladies, attention-inspiring summaries. I definitely want to find out more about Lee Miller, Lizzie Siddal, and Hester Thrale. I'm glad I picked this up on impulse at the DeYoung Museum after being rushed through the Lee Miller/Man Ray exhibit... Though, wow, sometimes people are real assholes to other people just trying to help.
2) Blazing Bedtime Stories: Volume VII by Rhonda Nelson and Tawny Weber - Kinda ridiculous in that romance novel way, reminds me why I mostly stick to Regencies. The first story was kinda cute (if really freaking fast) and I would have read a longer version of it, for sure. The second story... There are no words for the banality of it. It was the worst things about PWP but with an attempt at a plot. A dognapping plot, no less. No words, people, no words. Off to the used book store for you, book.
