Everything Is Books

Last Sunday, I visited, and signed up for a membership with, the MIT Science Fiction Society Library, which, according to the Web site, contains "over 90% of all science fiction ever published in English."

I BELIEVE IT. THIS LIBRARY, IT FILLS ME WITH STARRY-EYED SQUEE.

One of the first books I checked out was an early novel by Patricia A. McKillip (whose work I've enjoyed in the past) called Stepping From The Shadows. The tagline: "HE WAS THE DEMON-LOVER WHO COULD BE EVERYTHING TO HER - EXCEPT REAL."

...yeah, this is going to be fun.

I WANT TO GO TO THERE!

And you'll have to let me know how the book turns out!

We should make a plan to go to there!

I am most of the way through the book (it's not long), and it's... weeeeeiiiirrrd. Beautifully written, but incredibly surreal.
