I'm a sort-of academic. I read fanfiction. I've been a voracious consumer of speculative fiction ever since my dad handed me a copy of Dragonsong when I was 8. Thinking about religion, queer theory, and feminism (yes, all of them at once) makes me happy.
I waited for a year (or so?) to read Melusine because I have a firm policy against buying books in hardcover (lack of shelf space). However, I finished it with two hours left on the plane ride to Tel Aviv, and was cursing for hours at the fact that The Virtu wasn't out yet here, and I wasn't going to be back home for over a month.
