Horses, anyone?

8/4/2012

A writing buddy of mine just gave me a heads up about "The Scorpio Races" by Maggie Stiefvater. Anyone read anything by her? 

Can't tell you much yet (I'm only a couple chaps in), but "The Scorpio Races" looks like a very well-written YA full of mythical horses and characters that I made a connection with almost immediately. This is a more literary read than my usual boy/girl-saves-the-world adventure. Will tell you more in a few days.

Sigh. Now how am I supposed to get any writing done, when I keep stumbling across books I want to read instead? I'll just call this "researching the competition" and leave it at that!
