Reading Wednesday 31/05

I managed to finish two whole books since last week. A mixture of both being fast to read, and having a bit of extra reading time over the bank holiday weekend.

1. Ninefox gambit by Yoon Ha Lee (yhlee). (c) 2016 Yoon Ha Lee, Pub Solaris 2016, ISBN 978-1-78108-449-6. I read this because friends were enthusiastic about it, and in hope of voting in the Hugos, and I'm really glad I did because it's great. Disturbing, but great.

2. Moll Cutpurse Her True History by Ellen Gatford. (c) Ellen Gatford 1984, Pub Stramullion Co-operative Ltd, ISBN 0-907343-03-1.
   
   This was an afikomen present from my brother, and I picked it up because I was in the mood for something light after NG. Basically it's a book about a cross-dressing criminal and her lesbian lover, based on a historical character from the late sixteenth to early seventeenth century. It's delightfully silly and fun.
