shimotsuki's story stash

It's Spring Break this week! I'll be back later with an Accountability Post (haven't done one of those for a while, which may explain a lot, lol) -- and to catch up with posts on my f-list. For now, my guy and I are about to go on a geology hike with friends, enjoying the warm sunny weather after a few chilly days of rain and sleet.

But first, a crucial question for philomytha: Last night[*] I got hold of a copy of Whispers Underground, which appears to be #3 in the Rivers of London series. I have #1 on order from interlibrary loan, but it isn't here yet. So my question is, can I start with #3 and read out of sequence, or will I regret it? ;)

For everyone who hasn't been following philomytha's remarks about this series, it's apparently a gritty London-based mystery series. With secret wizards on the police force. Sounds like it pushes most of my buttons.

[*]I also found a copy of Sharing Knife: Legacy in the same used bookstore. It was a good book-scrounging night!

I've been meaning to post this for ages now, and I'm sorry for the delay, but thank you to my anonymous jelly-bean gift-giver!

It's the Memorial Day long weekend -- we're having a friend visit, and planning some hiking and swimming and such. Hope everyone with Monday off enjoys it. (I think I recall that the last Monday in May is a Bank Holiday in England? You Canadians had Victoria Day already, though...too bad. ;P )
