More easy reading!

I read Torchwood: Slow Decay in one night! It was much better than Border Princes. It was a rather gruesome story about a weight-loss clinic that uses alien eggs as diet pills. This was more like a Torchwood episode than the last book. There was a clear story, where Border had multiple plots going on at once. And all the characters got to do interesting stuff. The author had a good idea about the personalities they have on the show- especially Captain Jack Harkness and his somewhat bitter sense of humor. Torchwood: Another Life is next. And I plan to buy Something in the Water when it comes out next month:



It looks like it's Owen-centric, which is fine, because he's my favorite character on the series.

Back to more "serious reading", I've started Nights at the Circus. I may have to put it aside, because I have two new novels from the library that I can't renew. Both are Jane Austen-related: Confessions of a Jane Austen Addict by Laurie Viera Rigler, and The Lost Memoirs of Jane Austen by Syrie James.



I am a bit of a Jane Austen addict, so I'm sure I'll enjoy both books. They look like quick reads. I think I'm all set for my February/March reading!
