What Atwood novel do you suggest as a good one to get into her works? I have read her poetry and love what I have read both here and elsewhere but have yet to read any of her novels. Any suggestions?

Sorry but I haven’t read any Atwood! I’ve been meaning to read A Handmaid’s Tale for ages but haven’t gotten around to it. You could go with that one, as it’s the most popular I think. I don’t have access to a computer right now but what also comes to mind is Cat’s Eye or The Blind Assassin. I’m sure my followers will give you more suggestions if they have them :]

I love your theme and the obvious work that you've put into your blog. One can scroll around, and see your writing, posts, tags, and reblogs, and all the while the gears scroll along with me and turn and turn. I'm not a young boy but I have found that it is incredibly fun and addicting. Thank you. Oh and I've read the greater majority of the books you're currently reading and think that you'll enjoy most of them. I did.

Thanks! I'm so glad that you think so and that you like it! I'm very glad that I found this beautiful theme.I have put a lot of work into my blog and I'm glad that it's been effective, making my blog fun to browse! So, you're welcome!

That's good to hear! I am very much enjoying the books so far, so I think you're right :)

I've been following along with those anons and Curare comes to mind.

Yeah, I’ll be honest, I’m not actually sure which point you’re making. Curare is incredibly lethal stuff. When it was first discovered in South America, the locals were using it to poison their arrows.

Curare is a paralytic that attacks the respiratory system. It has modern medical uses when performing surgery on the lungs, and as a muscle relaxant before surgery. (Which, incidentally means, both of us might have been dosed with this at one time or another in our lives.)

It’s also used as an anticonvulsant when treating tetanus, and to treat spastic paralysis when surgically correcting some breaks and dislocations.

There isn’t actually an antidote, but, in a medical environment, the patient can be put on a respirator and will recover without ill effects. Near as I can tell, there isn’t even really a “safe” dosage. It seems to be you either put the victim on a respirator or you notify the next of kin.

Here’s the reason why I’m not sure what point you’re making, curare won’t put you under. It will paralyze the victim, but if they survive, they’ll remember the entire ordeal. If the victim dies, it will be from asphyxiation because the toxin kept them from breathing, they’ll also be awake and aware for the experience… In a combat, it’s for those times you don’t trust an arrow to be lethal enough, and need to make sure whoever your shooting is extra dead.

solbus replied to your post:A Wind in the Door, Alice in Wonderland, The Lion the Witch and the Wardrobe

Would it be fair to ask Lymond novels?

hell yeah

Doesn’t sound legit. Just make sure you always credit your source and unless you are trying to take credit from someone you should be fine.

Thanks! Yeah, that's why I was weirded out firstly: I take special care to put credit where it is due on things like that. And I've never heard of that song or artist. But the weird thing is that I contacted Tumblr through their support page, not just replying to the original email, and the name of the song and the date was what they sent me back. I'm just very confused and I don't want it to count against me if I didn't actually post it to begin with! ha Thank you though!

Jester's Reads in April

So, in terms of really good reads, April was an excellent month. I followed some of booksandghost’s recommendations from his March reading list and –as always- they were superb (thank you!). One of these recommendations “Never Let Me Go” inspired solbus to post another: “The Remains Of The Day”, which caused some really good dialogue and I’m even more grateful here. Another superb recommendation came from kittensbookshelf "Mr. Penumbra’s 24 Hour Bookstore". If you love good books, I can recommend those three to follow. Onwards, here’s the list:

Elantris – Brandon Sanderson (a re-read because there was something in Words of Radiance that made this re-read necessary)

The Emperor’s Soul – Brandon Sanderson (a re-read for reasons)

Dark Eden – Chris Beckett

Never Let Me Go – Kazuo Ishiguro

The Book Thief – Markus Zusak

The Remains of the Day – Kazuo Ishiguro

An Artist of the Floating World – Kazuo Ishiguro

An Alien’s Guide to the Human Species – Deb McEwan

Mr Penumbra’s 24-hour Bookstore – Robin Sloan

Unwrapped Sky – Rjurik Davidson

Who Fears Death – Nnedi Okorafor

The Handmaid’s Tale – Margaret Atwood

With the exception of “An Alien’s Guide …” these are all books that I can really recommend. Ishiguro is, as solbus said in this post, a real master of his trade – so don’t be afraid, if his books cause a little “hangover” – meaning: if you finished one of his, you can’t just go and open any other book and delve into it. I needed to recover and hang on to my thoughts of the books for a day or so before I was able to continue reading. The most astonishing discovery was probably Australian author Rjurik Davidson with his debut novel “Unwrapped Sky”. So much so, that I think, I’m gonna make a separate post for that one.
