Or maybe try her other series? The Killing Moon and whatever the second one is called? She’s an excellent writer, so maybe you just need another world of hers to splash around in.

Well, as I’ve given more attention to finding books by authors of color, I’ve found that “that I’d like to read” is less of a concern than I thought it would be. But then, I am not super picky about genre.

India! More! I promise! (I hope.)

India was BRILLIANT — it’s where I went on my hibiscus. Whiskey Jenny was my gracious hostess, and we podcast-field-tripped all over the place. Whiskey Jenny took many wonderful pictures, including my sidebar one of the Water Palace in Jaipur. Pretty, no?

Loos on buses are worse AS A RULE, but in fact I think the loos on this train were as bad as any bus loos I have encountered so far.

I know, I want to! I’ve got a ton of other stuff checked out of the library now, but the next time I’m in a specfic mood, I do want to read her other two books (plus the brand new one).

Well, there you go! This one’s all about Sieh! And I hear good things about her other series as well, AND she’s got a new book coming out this year. Or is already out. I can’t remember.

She’s an excellent writer. I was captivated utterly by an excerpt from her first book, The Hundred Thousand Kingdoms, and I’ve loved her work ever since!

I will truly try to write more about India soon. Writing about travels is surprisingly hard! Without becoming boring!

Yeah, I think bloggers are making more of an effort to read POC authors, which helps, and I also think that just keeping your eyes open for POC authors is a help. When I’m at the library, I’m much more likely to check out a book on the “new books” shelf if it’s by a POC author, and I’ve made some excellent discoveries that way!

My India trip — I know, I know, I need to go through my pictures and write a proper post about it! I loved India, is the short version!

And, India – I’m jealous and curious to know more!
