Good week, but a week that made me tired. Everyone else at work was sick and I did infect BF, but I was never anything else than really fatigued.
---------------------------------------
A dark-fantastic collection of seventeen short stories, seven poems, and four essays.
My thoughts:
A Preference for Silence
A story about how you should not be alone too long
Boxlunch
A hunt for a condom goes wrong
You know what, I do not remember all the titles.
There was this story about a cook preparing human flesh for alien invaders.
Let's see what else. A story about if men had periods.
See this is why I hate anthologies. I never remember the titles, and the stories are so short, and there are so many so if I do not write it down I forget them at once.
But I do remember they were all funny and strange. The poems so far I have skipped.
Edit later:
Ok the end. And like I have said before, I can't remember titles or stories. I think I skimmed two, I skipped the poems but the rest were fun and macabre.
When it comes to anthologies I have to write down the title and what I thought at once, cos else everything goes into each other.
But, fun!

Shadowmagic is a rip roaring fun fantasy adventure novel by John Lenahan very loosely based on Irish mythology where every chapter ends on the edge of a cliff (or at least a high curb.) Join Conor as he grapples with typical teenage problems like, how to deal with a father's high expectations, how to survive in the world on your own and how to woo a beautiful girl - that wants you dead. Shadowmagic a podcast novel for young adults from 12 to 112.
My thoughts:
A podcast that I listened to, it took 2 months (oh me and audio ;) But it worked fine. I could just jump in even if I had not listened to it in a week. So that made it good.
It's about Connor who after someone trying to kill him, finds out that his dad is a prince from Tir na Nog. A land of magic. All those legends are true. And suddenly he is there too, people are trying to kill him, he is lost and what on earth is going on?!
I think the issue I have with pods is that after every chapter I heard the same thing, omg, dull, took so much extra time. But I wanted to know how it turned out so...
Second issue was that Connor had like a dream in every chapter, omg, enough.
But the rest was fun. He met friends. He had adventures. Good conquered evil and I will def listen to book 2.
