Shore Leave #2 or Book Round Up

Because I have a very large amount of books, I’ve been keeping track of them on GoodReads. This has been somewhat complicated given my recent purges but overall, it’s been helpful. The neurotic little crazy person in my likes knowing how many books I own.

Books were by far my biggest splurge at ShoreLeave. I bought 11, all of which I was able to get signed. Some folks were cool and gave me a deal for buying more than one, proving it never hurts to ask.

One was a speculative fiction anthology called Pangea. The continents never shifted and Neanderthals still exist as second class citizens. Everybody go! I bit. When I went to add it to my GoodReads, I couldn’t find it. I had to do some searching before I discovered it’s not out yet. I got a very cool anthology before the rest of the world? Sweet!

Otherwise, my list includes:

-No Small Bills by Aaron Rosenberg (There was a whole think involving free rubber duckies with purchase last year. It was too perfect.)

-Clockwork Universe: Steampunk vs Aliens by Patricia Bray and Joshua Palmatier

-Beauty Has Her Way edited by Joshua Palmatier

-Heroes!: The 2013 Fiction Anthology edited by Kelly Swails

-Into a Strange Land by Ben Anderson

-The Witch and the Walking Tree by Ben Anderson

-Taming the Goblin by Ben Anderson

-Snyper: A Matter of Caliber by J. Merideth Harmon
