calimeI've recently finished tagging my exported bookmarks on delicious.
So, if anyone is interested in my ca 2500 bookmarks, here they are: http://del.icio.us/calime
A lot of fic, most of it slash, some randomosity. Be warned that those are in no way recs, though I've read all of them at some time. Especially in Highlander fandom I used to bookmark all and sundry, even stuff I'd never reread, and I did read pretty much anything I found. I've been playing with the idea of adding a tag to indicate what in my mind would be a good stroy, but then again, tastes vary and I'm vaguely horrified at the thought of going through all these 2000+ links again (and lots of those are homepages or archives, too) to read and analyse and tag. i probably will, though, but not any time soon. The newer additions are perhaps more ... handpicked, but I still have the tendency to read A LOT and also, bookmark A LOT. You have been adequately warned, I hope.
I took advantage of my three vacation days and re-read a lot of LeGuin. In Estonian translation, which is fortunately good, though now I want to read them all again in English. I'd forgotten how much I liked the Left Hand of Darkness. Frankly, I like all of her books. I did originally try to read Laurell K. Hamilton's latest Anita Blake book, but was again defeated by its awfulness (that was the second try). Why, oh why *tears hair* does she do that??? I loved the first books in that series, really. There was snark and asskicking and the sexy undead. And it was erotic as long as she didn't write actual sex. She should go to some fanficcers to learn how to write smut. *bangs head against desk*. I mean, I think this is the first book ever that I've not managed to read through - in the absence of anything new to read, I've once read even something on the lines of an old edition of Communism builders' handbook and speeches of V.I. Lenin. Maybe I'm spoiled by the availability of free fic online, a lot of it better than published books. *sigh* Fuck you, Ms. Hamilton, for not knowing when to stop. I LIKED the first Anita Blake books! *weeps* *shakes fist*. And now, I cannot even force myself through the last one.
